Vampire language is a mother tongue of intelligent vampiresalps, bruxae, higher vampires, mulas, katakans, and nosferats – belonging to Gharasham tribe.[1] They rarely expose it and prefer to communicate with other races via either telepathy or Common Speech.[2]

In particular, bruxae are able to utilize songs in this language, described as silent, shrill, and sickening to manipulate and bend to their will any human by altering their dreams and turning them into horrendous nightmares.[3]
