In addition to the transliteration system outlined above, Brooding also uses a writing system comprised of  
two sets of characters: seeing characters and blind characters.  Seeing characters form an alphabet, with  
each seeing character representing a Brooding sound. The blind characters are logograms used in various ways.


These “faces” (called ''Contionary:gawbren|gawbren'') may be used in various props, illustrations, or even mimicked by actors to tell a “story within a story.” The angle of the head may also be manipulated to create dual meanings. On the left are two examples of a clue which could mean “Gate of Faces” (''[[Contionary:gedreen|gedreen]] [[Contionary:e|e]] [[Contionary:doon|doon]]'') or “Gate of Dreams” (''[[Contionary:gedreen|gedreen]] [[Contionary:e|e]] [[Contionary:wis|wis]]'').

Brooding is written primarily as an abjad, omitting the vowels in most cases. The only time that the vowels are required is when they appear at the beginnings of a word.

In addition to the abjad, the blind characters are used in several different ways:

* In nouns and verbs, they symbolize a grammatical operation - such as the noun being plural or the verb being in the past. While this does not affect the spelling of the word, it does change relative meaning of the word and how the word is spoken.

* Word boundaries are indicated by the eyes of the faces. The eyes looking to the right indicates the first letter of a word, while the eyes looking left indicates the end. The eyes are straight ahead if in the middle. This may or may not be visible on blind characters, however, so determining if a blind character is part of a word or not will depend on looking at the eyes of surrounding characters.

The solitary blind faces for ''[[Contionary:aeram|aeram]]'', ''[[Contionary:zraeram|zraeram]]'', ''[[Contionary:auplen|auplen]]'' and ''[[Contionary:zrauplen|zrauplen]]'' can be combined with the above verb modifiers into paired characters to indicate the appropriate conjugation of the verb. Note that in this pairing, the affirmative/negative feature of the verb modifier is ignored; rather the inherent one in the verb is used instead.

===The Alphabet===


The Brooding Alphabet (which is called ''[[Contionary:gawbre|gawbre]]'', the collective of ''[[Contionary:gawbren|gawbren]]'' ‘letter’, so ‘group or series of letters’) consists of fifty seeing characters and fifteen blind characters for a total of sixty-five ''[[Contionary:gawbrene|gawbrene]]'' (‘letters’) in all.  The seeing characters, as discussed above, all represent phonemic sounds in Brooding, with the exception of ''[[Contionary:stoot|Stoot]]'', which indicates that a blind character will follow.
