Post the song that describes the feel of your character here! That is,
it could be a song describing your character's current mood, his or her
general outlook/feel, or describing a moment or event in her or his
life. -

My character being a Runewarden with a seafaring and tribal background, a lot of Swedish and Norwegian folk music set a pretty good tone overall, such as this:
What is a song that fits with your character mood, persona, or something they've experienced recently?

Edit: Vhaith is a very happy, positive person, who loves her home, loves the Forests and absolutely adores anything fairy/butterfly related. She'd live in Annwyn if it wasn't so dangerous.
We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.
Solitary, by VNV Nation. Very Jir.
The soul of Ashmond says, "Always with the sniping."
(Clan): Ictinus says, "Stop it Jiraishin, you're making me like you."
Hadestown is my favourite musical, based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Stheno's lights and darks are partly inspired by the contrast of Eurydice and Persephone. Both were women who fell into the Underworld, and both were pawns in Hades' larger conflict with the gods and mortals. Persephone embraced her role and spent half the year above ground in the sun, while Eurydice stayed a lonely ghost.
Bonus! This second song always reminds me of @Sartan's hold on Mhaldor.
Reaching down with a massive hand, Sartan lifts your head and draws a taloned finger across your throat, the wound closing as He does so.
Ayani spends a vast majority of her days off on random parts of the world. While she might be Cyrenian, the place she is most at home with is a little spot I have landmarked as "Turtle Island" off in the boondocks where she might find some quiet. She has sat there with her husband and fished away the night watching the chaotic dancing of fireflies. Now, she returns there patiently waiting for his eventual return to her side.
So I know I've harped on about the D2 OST a lot, but it really has become my sort of go-to background music for Achaea. Regarding Synthus specifically though, I feel like "Into the Light" captures him pretty well. The majority of the time, he moves in slow, methodical measures as he begins to work on a plan, the thoughts in his mind like a low rumble of a storm. As soon as the gears in his head shift though, the momentum just keeps building until he's in a headlong rush toward that thunderclap.
The quintessential song about being good at everything except your job.
Would say this is a good song for anything, for anyone
Aegis, God of War says, "You are dismissed from My demense, Astarod. Go forth and fight well. Bleed fiercely, and climb the purpose you have sought to chase for."

First song that came to mind.
One of my favourite songs of all time. It is about manic depression, and although Stefa isn't bipolar (if such a disorder exists in Achaea) she certainly deals with a lot of emotional highs and lows, a lot of which stemming from the stress of trying to maintain a sunny disposition amid a violent, conflict-ridden world. The Tsol'teth invasion really knocked the wind out of her and I think the mood of this song fits perfectly with her new state of perpetual melancholy and just feeling lost and uncertain.
EDIT to add: I had never heard of Hadestown before seeing this thread but I love musicals and it is now at the top of my list so thank you @Stheno!
