RUNES!

If you're reading this, you're probably from /r/runes — hi there. I've glued this part together temporarily so I could get some stuff checked before I send bad info out into the wild.

We've got the infographics here, complete with individual cards for each rune set.

CONVERTERS

You might have also thought "How are all these guys typing in runes?" I'm not, really — I'm typing into some really basic algorithms and copying the results, but since they're already in JS, here, you can use them, too:

MODERN FUTHORC

Modern Futhorc, as mentioned in the rune tree and Futhorc cards above, is a project I'm working on as a system of runes designed to work with Modern English. The vowels are intended to be a cipher (i.e., the A rune should be used anywhere the A letter appears), but the rules for consonants are a bit more complex, espcially when factoring in optional runes and variants. I'm working on a more detailed explanation, but I haven't had time and energy to do much with runes lately.
