A collection of runic characters corresponding to their direct Latin transliterations. The set contains all 33 characters present in the later Futhorc alphabet, and includes voiced/unvoiced instances of F, S, and þ (thorn), plus Roman numerals. The character mapping is as follows:
Lowercase chars correspond to their respective runes, except V & Z, which are the voiced F & S. ||
Uppercase chars are as above for ease of use, with the following changes: A = æ / E = [ea] / G = g (for gone, as opposed to germ) / H = voiced þ (for them) / I = [ia] / K = [kk] / N = ŋ ('ng') / O = œ / Q = kw (old way of expressing 'q' before a specialised rune was developed) / S = [st] / T = voiceless þ (for think) / Y = [eo] ||
Roman numerals (capitals): C, D, L, M ||
Extra punctuation is included, as well as a combining underscore (for underlining) mapped to the 'pipe' key (SHIFT+\) ||
Visit futhorc.com to learn how to use these runes phonetically, as would have been done in Old English. Enjoy!This is a clone

The grenic runes contain one symbol for each uppercase letter of the alphabet and for the numbers 0 to 9. There are two options for the letter 'e', upper or lowercase to use. They are interchangeable and a pure whim to slow down code breakers who search first for the most frequent symbol to equate to the letter 'e'. Double letters are not used as in normal runic tradition. Numbers are used in the normal way. Grenic runes are especially useful for carving into stone as no rune has any contained space to break out whilst carving.
