Based on Morse, this is the Wharf Rats' private communication code, first designed by Mary "Jade" Blackwater and William "Havoc" Norton. Every member of the tribe must know it by heart; revealing the code to anyone outside the Wharf Rats is sentenced with torture and death. Uses either whistles or chalk writings on the walls. Vocals are used mostly on the sewers of New Pork, due to the way sound travels along its tunnels.
