I thought about it a while and I thinks "Endless Sacrifce" by Dream Theater fits best for Eander. It suits for the past and for the present aswell, not only the lyrics but also the music itselfs describes his character good.

Unfortunately I found no video on youtube that was not splitted in two parts and still contained everything. The song has been cut badly and so I have two links below :/ ...but atleast the sound is good and it's the whole song.

Part 1: YouTube - Mike Portnoy - Drums Of Thought- Endless Sacrifiece Pt1Of2
Part 2: YouTube - Mike Portnoy - Drums Of Thought - Endless sacrifice Pt 2of2

And if someone is intrested in the lyrics (allthough you can understand it without, because james sings very clear

)
Lyrics:
DREAM THEATER - ENDLESS SACRIFICE LYRICS

Hope you can enjoy it and for those who's PCs know Eander abit better (or have read his bio and CDQ what contains also somethings...but not all, so come and RP

) ...I hope they understand why I choose this song

Currently for Abi Firesteed....Oops I did it again by Britney Spears

For Erk (vorax rest his soul) Stranger In A Strange Land by Iron Maiden

For little Miss Grenna Rockbasher..I cant really decide but something by Deathklok or Wagner would suit.

For Brunhilde....Holst's The Planets..the entire suite

A long time ago I posted here for the theme song of my first character "sonya Darsus. Below is a link to the video that was a good one for her when Ï started to play her. Not sure about it nowadays.

Nightwish - Wish I Had An Angel
YouTube - Nightwish - Wish I Had An Angel

Now for my second character huntemara In'Darsus the above one could fit too but I found an one that fits her even better. At least right now it does.

Nightwish - For The Heart I Once Had
YouTube - Nightwish For The Heart I Once Had

Ok after much though about it I have come up with the theme songs for my characters. Please bear in mind that I am not responsible for the content of you tube.

For rain, its 3 songs for blink 182 that fits him most

Down: YouTube - Blink 182 - Down

I miss you: YouTube - Blink 182 - I Miss You (his dark side)

And

I'm lost without you: YouTube - blink 182 - I'm lost without you

that represents best all the things he has been through.

Just need to find the forth that is how he is now, happy lol

For lex its actually tow songs, one from emery and one of my own composition called New hope.

YouTube - Emery-Returning The Smile You Have Had From The Start (past)

MySpace.com - Emmanuel - 29 - Male - montreal, CA - www.myspace.com/emcha_audio (present)

For Brian it's a song from Emery called The Secret. Strangely that song could also be applied to Rain for some of his periods.

YouTube - Emery The Secret

You know, in my old gaming group people would make whole character CDs...
it's hard to confine myself to just a couple songs, but here goes.

For Pallena, The song "Storm" by Hungry Lucy,
YouTube - Storm (ignore the video and just listen to the music)
"Don't you bring me no sunshine today, I need the grey skies and the rain... "
It's a bit emo, but meh, it's a good song.

In very different ways, "Death is the road to awe" fits both of my characters, although probably more so Pallena than Drexia.
YouTube - Song: Death is the Road to Awe
It's from the movie The Fountain, (which, incidentally, I highly recommend the film for all of you art film lovers), and conveys Pallena's beliefs about the nature of destruction and creation. I think Drexia comes through in the music though too...

For Drexia, the song "Mitwa" from the Bollywood film Lagaan:
YouTube - mitwa (English subtitles)
"The one who has truth and courage in their heart will win in the end"
(The song Chale Chalo also works for her)

Was listening to a CD in the car this morning and it made me think of Farros Galdor. Yep, probably should have been concentrating on driving.

Slightly modified Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

Farros sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue

He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between
He was feeling something rotten

Farros looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said O my God

He rushed inside to tell his friend
He went racing down the halls
Skabot was still asleep in bed
Like a sack of cannonballs

Look what I've made, cried Farros
And he plucked a gentle note
Skabot's eyes popped from their sockets
And his tongue burst through his throat

O God, what have I done, he said
As his blood pooled in the sheets
But in his heart he felt a bliss
With which nothing could compete

Farros went leaping through the fields
Strumming as hard as he did please
Birdies detonated in the sky
Bunnies dashed their brains out on the trees

Farros strummed till his fingers bled
He hit a G minor 7
He woke up God from a deep, deep sleep
God was a major player in heaven

God picked up a giant hammer
And He threw it with an thunderous yell
It smashed down hard on Farros' head
And knocked him down a well

The well went down very deep
Very deep went down the well
The well went down so very deep
Well, the well went down to hell

Poor Farros woke up with a start
All amongst the rotting dead
His lyre tacked safe under his arm
His brains all down his head

Halfwit Genious · « **Reply #92 on:** December 20, 2007, 06:33:10 pm »

YouTube - Music Video - I Won't Be Ignored

This is Kalin's theme song I think. Been looking for a while and this is the closest I've found.

hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for that one, been so long since I watched it. Lagaan is probably my favourite Bollywood film.

Whenever I listen to Accept and UDO, this guy reminds me of what my skald protege Warsinger probably sounds like when he sings, goblinvoice! Definitely some AC/DC in there too.

YouTube - U.D.O - Thunderball
YouTube - UDO and Doro Pesch
YouTube - AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long

Farros started off singing high pitched glam and focusing on guitar mastery, now since the skald levels he's favoring more cookie-monster voiced black metal roars with angry chords.

YouTube - Yngwie Malmsteen - Heaven Tonight
YouTube - Amon Amarth - Runes To My Memory

hm...for Luna i dunno what would be good for her...
Maybe
YouTube - Metallica - Blitzkrieg Blitzkrieg by Metallica
Because she rushes in, obliterates things, then moves on, and cause i like the twangy noise which is noticable at 00:30 i think.

Or maybe..

ok i dunno for another, i have one for Emwonk though

Stone Cold Crazy by Queen (the version i have is by metallica but they swear :O )
