Uruk Runes were possibly created by a fan or fans of J.R.R. Tolkien's books, such as the The Lord of the Rings triology. They are used to write the Black Speech of a race of Orcs known as Uruk-hai, who are apparently hybrids of Orcs and men.
The Uruk Runes are modelled mainly on Elder Futhark.
Ash nazg durbatuluk
Ash nazg gimbatul
Ash nazg thrakatuluk
Agh burzum-ishi krimpatul
One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them
