The Elyrian or Elyric alphabet is the writing system originally used by the ancient Elyrians to write the Old Elyrian language. It has been in use since the mid to late 6th century BC. It is derived from earlier Median and Pelagian alphabets.

Several Elyrian-script alphabets exist, which differ in graphemes, collation, and phonetic values from the Classical Elyrian alphabet.
