Hi there folks! Whether you know my campaign log or not, I'd like your help with music tracks for 3 occurrences in the game, the first 2 the culmination of a chapter, the last one the start of another. If at all possible, the tracks should not have trouble if looping them (Since I haven't yet found a way to make lists without youtube commercials in between):
Though I ask for kind of very specific concepts, they are the ideal. I'm quite aware that it's unlikely I'll find exactly that, just aiming for it. Please feel free to post any track that you think might be good for the situation at hand. :smallsmile:
1) The mentor's shadow:
The party is investigating a prison, in which they found the mentor of one of the characters, who some thought has "crossed over to the dark side", and others thought he was used. Currently he is possessed by a shadow demon- a creature of betrayal, torture, and mockery. there are also shadows in the place, flavored as sort of unresting spirits.
I seek to encompass several things in this battle- despair (A theme running through out this part of the campaign), betrayal, mockery, and if possible- quick twists or... "something unexpected". Would be best to say it. It should be fairly fast paced, but mostly it should feel heart wrenching if possible, a bit of cheap drama if you may... :smalltongue:
2) The core of desperation:
In the very end of the chapter, the party faces the ghost of a dwarf, a betrayer, who accompanied them in spirit throughout this place. He has accepted nihilism, the lack of hope, he is utter desperation. Think of Agent Smith from the matrix, only if he was cold, immovable. Or the Borg, or anything that feels cold, emotionless, determined, and bent on it's task.
I seek to encompass here a feeling of "Doom and gloom"/ "Utter despair". If you know of a track that also has some hints of defiance or a fight in it (The PCs), but not as the major theme, ll the better. I think it could be quite hard to find something fast paced for this, but if you know of such a thing, please let me know!
3) From the ashes- victory, but at what price?
Suppose the party manages to survive this (Quite a big IF at the moment) They emerge back to a fort they have just conquered, but with potentially many casualties amongst the troops. They have won, but at a great cost. And they now start fortifying and rebuilding the city, till more will come.
This will be a time between activities, a fairly long time, in which the party may take part in more relaxed activities, and have time to reflect upon what they have gone, where will they go, and possible changes.
I am aiming at a fairly mellow background music, soothing if possible, evoking loss to some degree, evoking victory and rising to another. the overall tone however should be something of renewal, advancing, growing and such.

Any suggestions are welcomed! Thank you!
