Jun 4, 2017 at 17:24 comment added Pharap I submitted a translated version to one of the answers. When you see your friend, tell him a random skull on the internet told you his chalkmanship is atrocious and that "horrible" has two Rs and an E on the end.

Jun 1, 2017 at 22:16 comment added user14111 How is this on topic? You call it a "fantasy text" but since it's undecipherable, what basis do you have for saying that it's fantasy or science fiction?

Jun 1, 2017 at 18:57 comment added Ross So it's just symbol replacement? (|) is o, triangle with tail is A, etc?
Jun 1, 2017 at 18:03 comment added Erin Thursby Kinda reminds me of Agents of Shield. Where the people effected couldn't stop writing in the alien language. Is your friend ok? Do we need to call Unit? let us know if they sprout tentacles or something. :)
Jun 1, 2017 at 17:43 comment added zeta-band At a guess this is english transliterated into an alphabet that is a mashup of several real alphabets. So techniques to solve a mono-alphabetic cipher should apply. The thing that looks like two Xes is almost certainly a consonant and the vertical rectangle is probably a vowel. Circle with a dot in it is almost certainly 'E'.
Jun 1, 2017 at 17:08 comment added santyclause The more time I spend on this the more time I'm wondering if your friend just made it up themselves.
Jun 1, 2017 at 17:07 comment added FuzzyBoots Does not look like Cirth (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cirth).
Jun 1, 2017 at 16:57 comment added maguirenumber6 Runes don't tend to have curved or horizontal lines because they were used when carving onto wood or stone. This language might be based on runic languages but isn't one itself due to the horizontal and curved lines. Not 100% sure though.
Jun 1, 2017 at 16:50 comment added motoDrizzt @FuzzyBoots too inconsistent to be a real set of runes. I recognise some of them, but very few, and there is too much difference between them. This is a ugly mash up of many different alphabets, and I'm going crazy as I can't recall where I already saw the leaf shaped one .\/.
Jun 1, 2017 at 16:41 comment added eshier @FuzzyBoots I thought that runes were essentially linear. Very few curves/circles. I thought the same at the beginning, but just too many curved "letters".
Jun 1, 2017 at 16:22 comment added FuzzyBoots Looks more like runes.
Jun 1, 2017 at 16:00 comment added dot_Sp0T Wingdings? I have no idea but it looks inspired by egyptian writing to me :/
