your PCs themesong

Whats your characters themesong?

no explaination needed, this is for fun and feeling. what you listens to when you play, what song that inspired you in your character creation or a song/piece of music that just fits your PC like a glove

I posted the below in our player group forum a few months back.

So... I thought this would be fun and give you all a glimpse into how I came up with and how I played Bastian. I am one of those people that can put a song on repeat and listen to it all day. These are the songs that help me come up with the creation of Bastian and how I played him:

Bastian's creation and first couple of sessions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ3wpjdYMqk

Bastian's play up to trading his soul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeFezGJF ... re=related

Bastian after trading his soul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cucFfpsqf8

Bastian after being placed in jail: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kl1rRxG251s
Current PC: Anovallis "Nova" Starmane

Been so long since I thought about a theme song for Zyrus... I need to find one, but I have pretty much no knowledge of music :| Anyone willing to help?

Props on Dethklok reference :) I also loved the Korgoth the Barbarian pilot (and sole episode).

I don't often listen to music while playing ALFA.

If Marcus had a theme song right now, it would probably be something like REM's "It's the end of the world" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0GFRcFm-aY

It reminds me of what the inside of Marcus's head must sound like.

This would have been Zyrus a few months ago, not so much anymore :)

Aglaril Shaelara

I'm not sure anything I know perfectly captures him; it'd probably be a combination of

Miles Davis: 'Jean Pierre'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ2d0BBC ... re=related

Sting: 'Children's Crusade'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fG5dVI9 ... re=related

(Replace 'England' in the chorus with 'Corellon' and it might fit)

and

Mike and the Mechanics: 'The Living Years'
