It DOES look like Daedric, yeah.

It is unmistakable, the Oblivion gate rune is identical

[quote name="Skydancer" date="2020-01-03 13:45:03" ] i you unfortunately won't get very far with just a sample text with no knowledge of the underlying language structure. even if it is just a wacky cipher of english, it's gonna be nigh impossible :( may i suggest a similar plan of action? using the runes as a starting off point for a conlang of your own. i know ursegal already exists but that isn't stopping anyone [/quote] Of course, to be honest, there probably isn't even a structure at all. Aside from the basic set we have, most of the runes might simply be artistic squiggles. It's more for fun and lore. It's also fun to see the symbols we do know the meaning of repeated in other art such as the halo on the Arcanist. It's more of a "hey let's look at the art" thread, rather than a serious language analysis. Edit: Also apparently the Arcanist is a daedric prince... This explains a lot.

Flight Rising cross Elder Scrolls confirmed.

Or the Arcanist is just a huge fan.

I used a Daedric-English alphabet chart. Arcanist's halo repeats:

WERER WERERIO OIOQWEJIQ (left to right)
or
QIJEWQOIO OIREREW REREW (right to left)

Although I don't know what order the words are in.
I'm not familiar with Elder Scrolls, but this looks like a cipher.

I’ve probably seen a gazillion pictures of the Arcanist before, but I’ve only just noticed that the runes on the inner circle of the Arcanist’s halo appear to be either Younger Futhark or Futhorc. Both are rune systems that evolved from Elder Futhark, so they look similar.

The Arcanist has something weird going on with his image... I remembered seeing the elements in his halo, but the image I posted had Daedric and Futhorc-like runes. It looks like the image from "Generate Image" is different from the image on his page, which has elemental symbols and a third type of runes. Oddly enough, it won't work with FR'd image code, but I can link to it.

Or maybe it's like that little alchemy game, you need x and x to get this element? I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a "real-life" Arcanist's halo actually shifted between the two types of runes. Maybe the originally planned for Arcanist's halo to be animated, then decided against it?

[item=cloak of the cosmos] [item=arcane aura] [item=starlight cloak] as i can see, runes appears in other places than only their signature writing, but overall for symbols that might be somehow connected with magic, so i can think runes are common symbols in sornieth, both used by dragons, deities ane other creatures :)
