Hello to all of you...
I've been a member of Candlekeep for about a year now, though my
trips to this very place were really rare.
I play D&D 5 years (since 15) and for the first time my party and me have a house to play in (until now we were playing in cafeterias)
So we have the very opportunity to listen to our own music.
I searched and searched in order to find some suitable songs, but nothing really appealed to me.
Thus once more I am here to ask your advise...

-Beware...
-Why?
-The storm gets closer...
-So?
-So beware...

I using music from the movies,such as Ladyhawk,Gladiator,Lord of the Rings trilogy,Conan the Barbarian and plenty of others.
But it is only my personal choice.

"To be an elf is to find your distances of time. To be an elf is to live several
shorter life spans." I have learned this to be true, but there is something more.
To be an elf is to be alive, to experience the joy of the moment within the
context of long-term desires. There must be more than distant hopes to
sustain the joy of life." By Drizzt Do´Urden -R.A.Salvatore,Two Swords - Hunter´s Blade trilogy

I put together an MP3 CD with a bunch of soundtracks: Gladiator, Conan the Barbarian, First Knight, Braveheart (extended 2 CD cut), Conan the Destroyer, Dragonheart...approximate running time 8-10 hrs, it usually lasts until the gaming session is over.

Mace's not so gentle gamer's journal My rants were harmless compared to this, beware!

We already have several scrolls dealing with the topic of background music for campaigns. As such, I'll direct you to this early scroll, "Mood Music for Gaming", "Suitable Music", and another very old music scroll in the library.

I'm sealing this scroll.
