That light pits, used to hold ships in place, are filled with complex electronic equipment, have no safety boundaries, and are lit with a dim blue light when not in use? (The Burning Life p. 77)

I had decided that this will be Elmund's theme:

If Miz resurfacing works as I hope... well, I give you Amon Amarth - For Victory or Death which is viking metal as fuck, and the lyrics couldn't be better if I wrote them myself.

Quote

Time has come to wash our shame away
To erase the image of defeat
We have licked our wounds, restored our strength
And our vengeance will be, oh, so sweet

They thought they had us down
That we'd never rise again
They will learn that they were deadly wrong
What's owed will be repaid

Again we'll feed the wolves
And then vengeance will be ours
We'll split their skulls and spill their guts
Upon the frozen ground

Yeah, we'll never kneel again
Not to deity, nor men
Now they'll taste our bitter hate
What's owed will be repaid

So raise the flag once more
And the eagle will be fed
Once again we march to war
For victory or death

They arrived with talk of Hvitekrist
By force they wanted us to kneel
With their swords held to our throats they preached
But we will make them pay, we'll take their lives away

So raise, raise the flag once more
In the east the eagle will be fed
March again, we march to war
We will march for victory or death

Pain, the pain and suffering
Is but a bleak and distant fading dream
Shame, our disgrace, a withering thought
Now finally our names will be redeemed

I revised my earlier statements and make ALL of Armored Core Verdict Day's soundtrack as Elmund's theme depending on his mood and what he is doing. Except for that track where Fatman is drunk.

This is Anyanka's theme!

This was too easy. This was the old Anyanka, when she was just a seed in the mud, all she wanted was blood. She has sprouted now and needs a new theme that conveys her growth so far.

Twiztid - The Deep End

This is Anyanka's new theme!

Trigger warning: It's a song about suicide.


[spoiler]
It sits and corrodes in the bottomless pit of my soul
Becoming half of the better damaged portion of what's whole
Some call it sick, deranged, insane and sometimes
I prefer it rather that to be just labeled this plain
Or played like some disfigured chess piece
In life's corrupted game
Feel the sorrow
Life reaps and sows, accepting it
But still wanting to grow
Or just let go but the grips from the fingertips
Of insanity's overbearing hold
Feels airtight
As if I need the jaws of life to come and cut me
Out the darkness in an effort to shed light on the subject
To the public, the world can live without me
Still feel blessed inside to speak my mind
And hoping they never doubt me
And through death hoping they remember
And never ever will they ever forget about me
And if I'm resurrected
Second coming of second life
Second chance to know about me to have sight
Beyond sight, close your eyes and still see

If I were just the same
As the rest of you little robots
Then I prefer to be shot
Induce me with the pain
Shoot venom in my veins
Cause you don't know my story
No, you don't know my story
There's really nothing for me
So leave me in this worry
(In the end is glory)

Feel like an 8 by 10 in a 5 by 7
I'm in the wrong frame of mind
And I wish my indiscretions had a warning sign
But I get by
And that's a lie
But I gotta refuse to let em' know
That on the line in which I ride
I choose to break away
Wanna bring it back
That which you take from me
Even if it means I gotta go to war with everyone
Who wanted to end my little bit of everything
Guess I'm too mad or too sad to sing
I was born in a city
But now I'm living in a confused state
That's full of decay like a toothache
They tried to pull me out but it was too late
Now I'm a product of a brand new hate
I'd rather die than be what you say
Living a lie to let the truth hang
Individualize me like a new gang
While the rest of y'all just sit there and get played

I'm drowning in a pool of my surroundings
I put this knife to my Adam's apple
Let's start the backwards countdown from ten
I'm a tatted rascal
Fleeting from the lines
An acid jackal
Shackles all on my palms
Because psychedelic trips gone bad
Recollections of my pissed off dad
Sitting in the pathfinder
And I still ain't found shit but
Old silhouetted pictures of me with my wrist cut
And I wish you well
Hell, I was bullied by the Minotaur
School with a crew
With a toolie
Inside a rental car
You don't learn from god inside a seminar
But you hear about the devil every which way you turn
Perhaps we were made to burn in hell-fire
And I desire to be stronger
But the songs I sing
Go ever somber in this life of mine
Memoirs of the suicidal
I guess my father is my truest idol
Gone

For Ji'Kahr, it's this.

SKY PILOT by the Animals.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69zvFnVa03g

"He blesses the boys as they stand in line
The smell of gun grease and the bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted he's a good holy man
Sky pilot.....sky pilot
How high can you fly
You'll never, never, never reach the sky ."

The Amarrian priest blesses the devout DUSTie troops, and the Squadrons of faithful capsuleers as they head into battle.

Despite the fact that they/ we live and travel between the stars, the faithful Amarrian clone soldier or capsuleer that are servants of God can never truly 'reach the sky', or Heaven. Cloned flesh is, after all, an unholy thing.

Just for fun, this song makes me think of Blood Raiders.

Sanik, Bloody Sanik.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReuBms-qZQk

Also, Sansha's Nation makes me think of this song.

(Perhaps the lyrics aren't appropriate, but I just imagine a lot of half dead zombified cyborgs in swarms of combat ships as 'Children of the Grave'.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rihpED_obk 

I'm not sure how widely known LEXX is outside of Canada. However, it was my favorite Science Fiction show in the 1990s. The Divine shadow makes me think of the Amarrian Emperor, and the cluster makes me think of the Amarr Empire. I suppose you could say the LEXX itself was a Titan ship.

The moth breeders make me think of Sansha's slaves, zombified humans that have been transformed into drone like slaves.

One of my favourite tracks that I think is suitable for Karynn:

This one had me stumped for a while, until I accidentally sat on my iPod and this started blaring in my headphones. The shortened (and faster) version of Origa's Rise from Ghost in the Shell 2nd GiG is a good fit for Commander Baxter especially given his military background.

And his combat music, of course, rocks out to Run Rabbit Junk.

It's interesting to see what I picked three years ago, but after two years of character development I don't think it fits anymore. His theme is probably Better Tomorrow from Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty, although by this point he's probably cynical enough to be closer to Jim Raynor than Matt Horner. (Maybe three years ago he would've been Horner ... but not now.)

Time to resurrect this topic.

Aria could probably sing about 90% of this song verbatim right now, and mean it.
