  Tékumel: Empire of the Petal Throne is a fantasy world created by Professor Muhammad Abd-el-

  Tsolyáni 
  Tsolyáni is one of the languages spoken on the world of Tékumel, and was the first conlang 
  published as part of a role-playing game. It is inspired by Urdu, Pushtu and Mayan. It is the most 
  developed of the languages of Tékumel and has a grammar book, dictionary, pronunciation CDs and 
  a primer.

  Type of writing system: vocalised abjad 
   
  Direction of writing: from right to left in horizontal lines. 
   
  Most letters have four different shapes - initial, used at the beginning of words; medial, used 
  in the middle of words; final, used at the ends of words, and separate, used when they 
  appear on their own.

  When vowels come at the beginning of a word, they are written with separate letters,

  consonants that precede them.
