Requiem theme songs.

Post by Michael »

Vampire the requiem is a game about a story right? well I've always thought of my Characters bieng the star in a movie or book,(no offence but you all are my supporting characters). so I've been trying to think of a theme song for Sol. if there was a movie about him what would be the entrance music? I've always done this for my Larp characters but Sol's is harder then i thought, Spyders was the cure's spiderman. Maxim's was Slayers reign in blood. (thnx AWC) Tsaboo's was Simon and Garfunkle's the sound of silence. jucifer was just white noise. I even came up with one for his Sire...Avenged seven folds's Sidewinder.But im having trouble with Sol's..

I was just wondering if anyone else has thought up a "theme song" for there character?

"crawling in my skin, these wounds they will not heal" I like it. Don't know to much about your Character but i think that it fits for what i've seen of him. :D

hahaha a little amateur death metal, you might like it... if you can understand it.

Michael, i was wondering, if you know that the name of your character means sun, right? i was just curious why such a name, for a vampire that comes from a nickname of shadow. not only that, sol invictus is a parade or a festivities ( pagan festival before xmas was set up there) made from the 21 of december to the 24 the 25 day is when the sun wins against the darkness every years celebration known as -Natalis Solis Invicti,- "the birthday of the unconquered sun.". Just to let you know for your characters development. :)

yes, in fact I knew that when I named him. His real "mortal" name is Paul Johnson. kinda plane right. so when he was embraced took the name Sol. He's an Ex-Hunter who was embraced almost on accident. To him, Sol is a reminder of what he fought for, what he lost, and most of all his dead son and wife. plus the irony was to good to pass up :) Sol has by far the most depth that i've given a character in my years of larp'ing. theres alot of pain and conflict in Sol and I thought that the name Sol Invictus or Invincible Sun fit him perfect. But as he's just a year old in his requiem he didn't know about the Covenent Invictus so now he just goes by Sol. just my thought process for his name.
