Mistryl battle language
Talk0this wiki
Mistryl battle language was a special language that was spoken by the Mistryl Shadow Guard when they were engaged in battle. Its main purpose, as well as its major advantage, was that it provided a means of swift, on-the-field communication that maintained the greater degree of security which came with such cryptic speech.
Behind the scenes
Edit
There are certain parallels to such systems in both the Star Wars universe and the real world. For example: In the Eastern Roman Empire, Latin remained in use for military purposes many decades after civilians had returned to utilizing Greek. During World War II, the United States military, specifically the Navy and Marines, used the Navajo language to create an unbreakable communications code. Star Wars itself has a lesser example in Mando'a. This language was employed in a similar manner by the clone troopers of the GAR.
