Cardassian https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Cardassian_language needs a pen with variable stroke width.
Bajoran https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Bajoran_language consists of highly complex pictogram-like glyphs.
Ferengi https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Ferengi_language requires variable stroke thickness again, and also requires you to draw flowchart-like lines.
Dominionese https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Dominionese has large filled shapes.
