As everybody else is legratecking, I thought I'd give it a try too. So,
Tairezazh goes in at something like this:
L2
G3
T1
C4
P3
S½
The conculture is by no means finished in itself (it never will be even
close! Tairezazh alone is supposedly spoken by billions of people in several
star-spanning empires!), but I think I've done enough and more if its only
seen as the "setting" for the conlang. I put one-half on script, since I've
not even begun making a script, but I do have decided on a number of
features it will have when and if I eventually make one (among other things,
it will for historico-cultural reason have a largish number of signs not
actually used for writing Tairezazh).
