Every demon has an unique look sans the disguises. How do u think Bart would look like? Also, they can invent disguises, right? Make themselves look like a human they have never seen before? |

Actually, they were speaking a normal language, not "Raven." Also, it was Bart's first time as a Raven, when he came out his beak was bright blue. And yes, they can, though I would think in a pinch they'd go for someone they once knew simply because it's easier and/or faster... |

In a way, they could learn something of Language, however. Think of certain sounds animals make indicating fear, anger, or grouping calls (call-to-arms thing). Should a spirit memorize that, they could at least communicate, however not as they would with us. |

I'm pretty sure all animals have some kind of basic language of sounds and body language, but it wouldn't be (and doesn't really need to be) as advanced as the languages we speak. |

Why would a spirit bother with learning it though? |

1) Animal speak (as answered by Dansariki). 2) The Admins lock threads for some reason or another. 3) I'm not going to help defend Random. 4) The great Apollo accepts your apology.

It's the fine art of surprise, they'd never expect it.
