Hello, gōðna dag, bjólet nad, and taxa teiu! My name is Jamin and I live in Philadelphia, PA. I've created a number of languages throughout the years, and I hope to present a few of them here. My most “complete” languages to date are:

I have been curating and expanding the language on behalf of Riddlesbrood since the fall of 2014.
