Zelda Themelin
First Post
If you need basicly background music for your campaign, you already have quite
good suggestions there.
I like to use various movie scores and soundtracks from (usually) older video
games soundtracks Final Fantasy have orchestral tracks and Xenogears have many
good ones. Dead Can Dance has many interesting scores as well. Some anime
instrumentals are very good as well.
I use less mere intrumental stuff nowdays. I use actual set of songs for each
campaign. Helps to remember things and set mood and actual story elements.
Sometimes songs I choose are very literal.
I have one DM currently who does this as well.
What comes creepy tunes I've used here are some from one game,
But idea here is add little supernatural feeling in these lyrics, making them
more literal than symbolic.
