For the music lovers out there!
What songs do you guys think would be fitting for each NPC? Share a tune that fits their character, their story or their attitude.
All suggestions welcome!
I'll begin with some:
Due t his marriage difficulties and his wife's name, I'll give Keldorn "Maria, Maria" by Santana. The pain in his voice when he says "Maria!" after his wife says "What if I don't love you anymore?" is just heartbreaking. Also, Manowar's "Heart of Steel" just describes his attitude toward evil perfectly for me

Dorn must have some kind of song about being badass and evil. The songs "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood would fit, but I'm a big metal fan, so I'll give him Iced Earth's "Pure Evil"

Eldoth just has to be an outlaw country song, so I either have to go with "Didn't Your Mama Tell ya 'bout Boys Like Me" by Montgomery Gentry or for a better song, Iron Maiden's "Running Free"

Skie would definitely be the Upper Middle Class spoiled girl who totally thinks she's cool for listening to rrap, so I'd have to give her some Kanye (the go-to artist for these people). She's also the totally non-metal sorority girl who constantly misuses Dio's horn sign while listening to Blink 182

He's not quite the shilling.
One wave short of a shipwreck,
He's not quite his usual
Top billing!
He's going slightly mad,
Just *very* slightlyyyyy maaaaad.
It finally happened,
Happened.
It fiiiinally happened,
Oh yes!
The guy is straight humblin' fools, and that's the bottom line.
I ever looked at Jan and thought of Supper's Ready, it is a very long and changing song, it tells many tales that never happened and it is ultra cool.
Then, Kagain reminds me of a song by The Beatles, Taxman, only because of the lyrics, but anyway it reminds me of him.
And Xan reminds me or Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix, only because Xan is like mazed in his feelings of doom and he dresses in purple, and he is an Enchanter.
Dorn: Superbeast by Rob Zombie (he needs some metal
Jaheira: Survive by Rise Against (a little more uptone than I would like for her, but it is about surviving and moving on, so it fits well with Khalid's loss and moving on)
Neera: Always by Blink 182 (I felt something Blink 182 would fit here)
in order in the spoiler tag
Korgan is best suited for a rough drinking song, such as Happy Little Boozer from Korpiklaani.
Dorn gets rewarded for his relentless carnage with Blood Fire War Hate from Soulfly.
And of course nothing reflects Sarevok's personality better than One by One from Two Steps From Hell.
As for Minsc and Boo... well, this song should suffice... I guess.
...Sarevok
btw, that is my favorite Maiden album. You'll NEVER guess my second favorite
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is EPIC. ;D
btw, one for Irenicus, but surely not the only one:
Both the foresty mood, and the sorrow (and eventual bitter hate that follows it) after his girl was killed by bandits.
On a similar note, this one is for my boy Rasaad
Also, does anyone think Neera may read some Nassim Taleb?
This song kinda reminds me of Branwen (but it mostly reminds me of Game of Thrones). It is one of my all time favorites and I recommend you all check it out
also, this band is Austrian, which might be of interest to KidCarnival
And here's one for Immy. Or Nalia. Or Noober, while wearing the cursed girdle of genderbendered deafness.
These two songs especially
