I'll do three songs for the most important characters of my newest book: The Swallow of Storms~
First off is my MC Chelidon! The best way to describe him is...complicated. He's adopted from Greece and has two fathers. Despite him having a bit of an attitude and cursing issue. He's a generally sweet person who makes sure to stick to his problems and avoid trouble when he can but...after his recent death that's left him in service to a deity in order to get back home? He's as vengeful and ruthless as they come.
I feel like his song(s) would be loud. Although he likes quieter atmospheres, he enjoys the energy behind loud music and enjoys how it's able to drown out his thoughts.
Next is Sauda. Despite her age, she is deeply engrained into the darker/underground parts of society and is fond of having friends in low places as well as doing odd jobs for them. Whether it is capturing and interrogating a rival to a noble's business or becoming a bounty hunter and killing people for money. She'll do it all and it's all for the sake of making sure food is on the table for his little sister.
I think her song(s) would give off a warrior-ish vibe while also being strangely. She genuinely enjoys fighting and killing, but at the same time? She will make sure that the people she cares for are safe and sound.
[I know this theme is for Tartaglia from Genshin Impact but his theme fits her strangely!]
Lastly is Dillion, the antagonist of my book. Sadistic but extremely misguided due to the ideals his cult raised him to have. Although he seeks redemption from the MC, knowing that his death is more or less his fault and wanting to atone for it, at the same time? He's struggling to completely let go of his ideals as well. To an extent? He truly believes that the weak must die and the strong should live solely, and in this new world? He intends to spread this ideal.
I think his music would be dark and distorted due to his personality and mindset. Being raised in a cult with messed-up ideals is hard enough but trying to escape that thought process alongside redemption for what you have done along with that? It leaves him feeling torn.
Apologies for the long post, if the theme songs for my characters interested you. Feel free to check out my book below!
