MorriganLFae 12 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Oh man, all my characters have at least one song, some of them have many. For instance, I just found this song the other day and had to add it to a character with two other songs...but it fit her far too well to not.

Jacob 58 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) My original character, whose name will be probably be Francesco, is ideally represented by the dance of personified virtues at the end of Il Sant'Alessio (1631): Edited October 12, 2020 by Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n1ghtz 4 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I have an addiction to making character/plot/story playlists. My current favorite character is a depressed old gay and he really likes 80s music. And Kate Bush for him is *chef's kiss* Running up that hill - Kate Bush 1 SITE BUZZ | DISCORD OPENING 24 OCTOBER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightingale 3 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Most of the time I don't have specific theme songs for my characters. It's about 50/50 that I assign a song to a character because characters tend to change over time -- also searching for a theme song can be a challenge too because I always want one that is juuuust right. The ones I've used in the past have been: - We don't Have to Dance (Andy Black) - Maid of the River (Sarah Calderwood) - Ophelia (Natalie Merchant) - The Cure (Lady GaGa -- Linney Cover) - Upside Down (Paloma Faith) - Vagabond (Tommee Profitt ft. FJØRA) - You Can Be King (Lauren Aquilina) - Runnin' (Adam Lambert) - Survive (Madilyn Bailey) - Into the Fire (Megan Nicole) - Phoenix (Fall Out Boy) - Machine (Mister Wives) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegHanSolo 13 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I love making character playlists so I could never choose a single song (with most playlists hitting the two hour mark, woof..). The staff for our current site even put together a playlist for the board that we thought evoked moods and themes that we thought could inspire players. I can't really listen to music when I'm writing, but I'll put on a playlist for the day before actually posting to get some vibes going. Here's a few I'm real proud of 👌 found on spotify The Cowboy | The Vainglorious Punk | The Witch Priest | The Money Grabber and ofc The Strange Ways Playlist VISIT STRANGE WAYS JUST OPENED MARCH 26TH, 2021 | ORIGINAL PREMISE | 18+ | NO WC MODERN SUPERNATURAL | JCINK PREMIUM | PACIFIC NORTHWEST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylence 10 Share Posted May 31, 2021 All my characters have at least one song, if not a playlist for them. lol I can't just choose one song for a character, when there are sooo many out there. I've tried and every-time I find a new song that fits just right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kira 1 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I love making playlists on spotify for my characters! I commute over an hour to work so it gives me loads of time to think of characters and their songs. Tool, Korn, and Slipknot are favorites for my characters... and kpop for my softer characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blooming of the Blooms 19 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I'm a very audial person, so all my characters, even the ones I'm less attached to, each have a playlist with several songs. I think my current one active character is at around 80 songs, which all remind me of her. I fucking love music (I also have more than 100 playlists on Spotify).

Waug 12 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) I actually don't often have specific songs for characters. I tend to have more generalized music that fits the mood of where I'm writing them. But sometimes there's a song that fits extremely well, like Queen's Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy for my... good old-fashioned lover boy. 😆 Edited May 3, 2022 by Waug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
