SoundEdit

Lower-ranking demons speak using sounds like the barking of canines, while the speech of more refined demons sounds like softly droning ocean waves mingled with the violence of a swarm of angry hornets. As with everything involving tanar'ri, however, their speech is unpredictable, and sometimes an elite balor's words may be rougher or a lowly bar-lgura's words may be smoother.^[3]

ScriptEdit

Abyssal uses the Infernal language's script.^[4]
