That's Theta on top ofEta, the same way the Watcher symbol is Theta on top of Mu.

The top left symbol looks like a combination of "Phi" and "Tau" overlayed, and the one on the right looks like the phoenician character for "Lambda" smooshed together with "Sigma"?

That last one resembles the "AE."

Edit: So as not to confuse people any more than they already freakin' are.

Yeah, I amended that Alpha to Lamda--- but an Phi does not have a line at the bottom. The line going through it extends downwards, but that wouldn't make a difference if it was overlayed-- though it does look rounder like an Omicron.

Ligature: (Wiki)
"Before the days of printing, scribes made use of a number of ligatures to save space, in Greek as in other languages. The ligature for ου — resembling a V above an O — is still sometimes seen. For a modern use of this in the Latin alphabet, see Ou (letter)

In printed 17th-century English works, there sometimes occurs a ligature of Οσ (a small sigma inside a capital omega) for a terminal "os".

Phoenician alphabet: (side by side with Greek counterparts)

my theory, top right, first glyph. (all factoids from wiki)

Gimel - Phonecian on Sigma - Greek

Sigma: The letter is ultimately derived from Phoenician Sin.
--Sin (Shin): The Proto-Sinaitic glyph, and possibly its Proto-Canaanite descendant glyph, according to William Albright and Brian Colless, may have been based on the hieroglyph for the uraeus in Semitic called shamash "sun" (also the meaning of the rune Sigel).

Gimel: In gematria, Gimel represents the number three.

It is written like a vav with a yud as a 'foot', and it resembles a person in motion; symbolically, a rich man running after a poor man to give him charity: Gimmel directly precedes dalet in the Hebrew alphabet, and this which signifies a poor/lowly man, from the Hebrew word dal.

The word gimel is related to gemul, which means justified repayment, or the giving of reward and punishment.

Gimmel is also one of the seven letters which receive a special crown (called a tagin) when written in a Sefer Torah. See Shin, Ayin, Teth, Nun, Zayin, and Tzadi.

RE: Another 12

Are the ceremonies every 12 years?

Tachyon, a couple of years older than Bree, went on the run young when her sister was tapped for the ceremony. The spacing may work. 12 may be a mystic number for the order.

Side note: I've seen talk of the top right glyph containing Lamda tilted. I do not think the character is adjusted. I think that, since we were told that the watcher symbol comes from 2 languages then we may find these other glyphs to be compounds from different alphabets.
