About Khyzrian
Khyzrian (also known by its endonym Xyzro) is an alien-demon language of the purported Virgin language family. It is spoken by the Khyzrians, alien-demons hailing from the constellation Virgo. It is the only attested Virgin language. The language was first recorded by the Russian-American writer and linguist Georgiy Afanasyevich Volkov in 1906.

Phonology
[view]Phonological System: DemonMost notable differences from humans:- A long tongue with a forked end
- Length and flexibility allows added POAs and trills
- Forked end allows more co-articulated consonants (unable to add these into a table - use other Conworkshop systems for this)
- A purring mechanism
- Used alongside regular speech
- Functions much like tone
- No voicing
