if you must travel through the woods, steer clear of any places where you can hear several different kinds of birds at once. that sound means you're entering a bruxa's territory and can kiss your life farewell. -anonymous piece of advise

fortunately for all of us, bruxae are rare creatures. most live far from population centers for they care for their own safety and make their layers and places where they cannot be taken by surprise. those who decide to live near men avoid crowds and emerge from their shelters only at night. when they do, one could almost mistake them for delayed travelers hurrying towards their night's lodging, yet subtle details give them away: they're close ties to birds, their piercing voices and the breathtaking speed of their movements. Bruxae are far swifter and stronger than men, but their greatest asset is their ability to turn invisible.

Bruxae darts about with uncanny speed, and with their power of invisibility they can easily confuse opponents and attack unexpectedly or from behind. thus when fighting these vampires the moon dust bomb is a great aid - well it cannot eliminate the vampires and visibility all together, it can make it easier to track its movements. a generous smearing of vampire oil is also effective.

Bruxae use their sharp claws to attack and can easily break through an opponent's guard by buffeting him with a hail of blows from all direction. they will try to bite their prey and drink its blood once it is weakened, so every Witcher who expects to a counter such a monster should swallow a black blood potion beforehand. Bruxae are also known for their sonic attacks, which knocked down and stun their prey.
