I am working on my own conworld, and am in the process of making
languages for this world. For the ancestor languages of the draconic
languages, I'd like to hear what you think of this sound inventory.

*Old draconic*
_Vowels_
Single vowels
[i]  = /i/
[E]  = /e/
[a]  = /a/
[o]  = /o/
[u]  = /u/
[@]  = /y/
Diphthongs
[&i] = /ei/
[Ai] = /ai/
[oi] = /oi/
[ui] = /ui/
[Vu] = /ou/
_Consonants_
Single consonants
[f]  = /f/
[s]  = /s/
[x]  = /g/
[p]  = /p/
[t]  = /t/
[k]  = /k/
[n]  = /n/
[N]  = /m/
Allowed consonant clusters
[sx] = /ks/ (Start of syllable only)
[ks] = /x/
[pt] = /pt/ (End of syllable only)
[Nk] = /mk/ (End of syllable only)
_Syllable structure_
C(0-2)VC(0-2)
Initial syllables have to start with a consonant (cluster). A word
consists of 1-4 syllables, stress rests on the last syllable.
