Post a comment for your character. Include songs you already have on their playlist if you make playlists, or general preferences for genres or lyrical themes if you don't. Reply to other people with suggestions for music that could fit their character or your CR. Cry, probably.

There's also a top-level comment for GENERAL SONG SUGGESTIONS & REQUESTS for things like sad mage songs or cool fight songs or songs that belong on general Dragon Age/Fade Rift playlists.

GENERAL SONG SUGGESTIONS & REQUESTS

[byblow]

For songs on themes that might not be character-specific, like battle songs! Or demon songs!

[serannas]

I made a Grey Wardens playlist that you can listen to here.

KICKS DOOR DOWN

[eolasemah]

Songs for our resident Dalish:

Landsailor for everyone. I broke this up and assigned stanzas to individuals once but I don't feel like finding it (not right now anyway)

The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun for the ones who have stuck to their culture/Dalishness in particular, I think-- immediately coming to mind are Beleth, Nari, Pel, and Sina. (this is also where I got my Sina voice, Chloe Agnew comes in at 1:31)

Hollow Moon aka the most Solas song I've ever heard

Additionally I think Cocktails & Ruby Slippers is a good one for Cyril Ashara

I THINK THAT'S ALL I GOT RIGHT NOW I'm sure I'll remember more

[deathwailart]

I used to be really into doing mixes when I had time so these are my actual Dragon Age ones (if they've got an 8tracks link ignore it, the mixes aren't there anymore).

The Blight which is all just instrumentals for fighting the Fifth Blight so it's kind of travel music/fighting music
Take to the Skies was a ~journey to Skyhold~ mix? Which is why it has oblig sad songs by mournful sounding ladies on it
Vir Sulahn'nen is my elf-y/Dalish mix that's basically all Gaelic/Celtic sounding stuff.

And I've got a whole bunch more fighting/exploration mixes (forests, mountains, dwarven places) if anyone wanted me to go through and tidy those up or see the tracklistings.

[samahl]

Hey guys. THIS is forever my song for Inquisitor vrs Corypheus and I just wanted to share to give you guys a laugh because seriously what was that "boss" fight amirite? :D

Christine Delacroix

[aceso]

Check out her playlist here. I'd love songs that have to do with breaking free and standing strong. Your typical "mage gets out of the Circle" songs.

Ellana Ashara

[serannas]

Check out her playlist here. I'd love songs that invoke independence, curiosity, walking towards a new life, or star-crossed lovers.

bella's trashheap.

[dashing]

.... I DON'T HAVE A PLAYLIST FOR ANY OF MINE OH GOD

herian amsel.

[dashing]

how can it feel, this wrong / storm in the morning light, I feel, no more can I say, frozen to myself ( roads ) portishead ; how many hours will I let slip away, before I realize existing and living are not the same? ( fantasy ) ms mr ; words they don't mean much, without some action, and they just don't hold up, without compassion ( over and over ) sewing up my heart again, love in equal stitch ( rosa ) grimes ; give me touch 'cause I've been missing it, I'm dreaming of strangers kissing me in the night, just so I can feel something ( touch ) daughter ; A memory guilded in red and gold, beauty guarded and never sold, I keep it with me wherever I go and I love you still, no matter how a story will unfold ( spanish doll ) poe ; fallen like a soldier, tragically you are at war / you think you're not caught within a fragment of yourself / do you think you're something you are not? ( amazing things ) sarah blasko ;

ngl i stole some of these from another oc with related themes

UH i like female vocalists a lot for her, but really genre wise I'm open. Bonus points for epic instrumentals and emotive singing, though.

[eviscerates]

HIT ME WITH ANYTHING for some reason I headcanon Ruby as being super into Bowie/Madonna/Prince/Michael Jackson and... Amy Winehouse... but!!! I am kind of open to any genre with her, honestly.

OH WAIT i have one song, Rabbit Heart by Florence + the Machine. And. Some others that I have totally forgotten. Haunted by Poe? Maybe... something... else.... ?¿?¿?

[fightingale]

likewise, anything. Pretty acoustic things and stuff in/with French are extra appealing, but hit me with anything.

Adelaide LeBlanc

[fleurdesel]

Playlist here, no real preference for suggestions. If you think it suits, drop it down!

Zevran Arainai

[ombranera]

Playlist here, spanish guitar, more rustic italian, songs that are bittersweet but upbeat for him.

Issaquntaar

[thesteelwolf]

I don't have one for her and would love any suggestions that have Qunari influences, heavy beats, bass choirs, etc.

[serannas]

When I think of heavy beats, I think of the dwarven themes from The Hobbit/LOTR. However, since those might be a little too iconic and easily recognizable, some Googling led me to this instrumental instead.

Velanna

[failedfirst]

I don't have a playlist for her, uh the only song I've really got that I'm like "oh it's Velanna' rn is Stand in the Rain by Superchic[k]

Rey

[provenforce]

also does not have a playlist, though I do have a couple songs I associate with her, typically you know, strong chick rock etc.

adding this not mine but it seems ok

Geneviève

[bouclier]

...and again I have no playlist. open to whatever but obviously she's newer so people haven't really got a grasp of her yet...

Bruce

[amygdalae]

NOT MY PLAYLIST b/c I found this on 8tracks and 8tracks hates here so I recreated it on Youtube, but for the most part this is a pretty good general Bruce thing.

I also have my own instrumental FST which is more melancholy in nature. I don't really have a specific FR Bruce one, which I guess should be the next thing that I should try and do...

FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST PLS all my music is game OSTS and japanese stuff,. All I listen for english is like. Linkin Park and Imagine Dragons.

Ciri

[ichaer]

Her playlist is over here.

I have no real preference for songs or genres so I am totally up for any sort of suggestions being thrown my way that might suit her.

Kain

[in_death_sacrifice]

I have a playlist for Kain in general, but I have yet to do anything more specific for this version. I'm open to suggestions!

Themes might include: war and combat, DRAGONS, losing control or losing yourself in any way, mountains, the sky (anything to do with flying), Wardeny stuff like sacrifice, unrequited love. IDK I like basically anything from loud and intense, to quiet and melancholy.

Kas

[issala]

I am TERRIBLE at songs for my characters.

Taashath

[quietblade]

See above. I love character music but I suck at finding it.

Re: Taashath

[provenforce]

I'm not a great person but I'm ok with it.

[issala]

omg

yes

Mhairi's crew

[foxsays]

Araceli;

[foxsays]

Link to all the stuff I have for her, most of it is all worldbuilding stuff from way back when I was fleshing out her verse.

[serannas]

Johnny Flynn feat. Laura Marling - The Water

The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying

Where the blue of the sea meets the sky
And the big yellow sun leads me home
I'm everywhere now
The way is a vow
To the wind of each breath by and by

Morrigan

[arcaneadvisor]

I don't have many for Morrigan so I'd appreciate things that fit in for her with the vibe I've got going.

Yngvi

[inagutterson]

Yeah I have nothing for the filthdemon

Cami's Gaggle of Assholes

[doneisdone]

Teren von Skraedder

[doneisdone]

Only has a couple, suggestions are welcome of course!
Actually both are more or less for her and her garbage children, so enjoy that.

Rocks and Water
The Humbling River

There's.... kind of a theme here, both genre-wise and with the whole. Water thing

Sina Dahlasanor

[eolasemah]

THEY'RE ALL SAD get wreckt

Calm and Crystal Clear is the most Sina song that has ever existed or will exist so NATURALLY I can only find it on Spotify. If you don't have Spotify and want to hear it, hmu and I'll send it to you I guess

Teardrop is just misc Sina, though because of it also being the theme for House M.D. I can't help associating it with her various health issues. Guest associations: Adelaide, Bruce, Anders, Pel

The Call is the one I associate with her eventual early death, so have fun with that

Those are the big ones anyway! But I imagine very much that she sounds like Chloe Agnew, so The Prayer is a nice potential fit. Just imagine it's directed at Ghilan'nain, sure

Cade Harimann

[onlyhymns]

the sad boy

Roll Away Your Stone is my main one for him right now, as he tries to figure out how to fit into Skyhold and is actually beginning to make something like friends, etc.

General vibe song, but on a related note, Fallen.
Another general vibe song is Believe because, y'know. ...religion. (and PTSD!)

Intervention is the one for Cade and Alistair being babbies together and growing up and branching off in their respective militaries. I include it because I love hurting MJ's feelings

[el_tybs]

What I have so far. Always wanting to build up my playlist so throw'em at me.

C'mon
Don't Dream It's Over Remix
Bulletproof
I Can Go The Distance
Michael Jackson - Will You Be There (Boyce Avenue acoustic/piano cover)
Hold On Forever
All I Ever Wanted

[samahl]

Behold, a playlist!

A couple of things to point out: Troye Sivan's FOOLS is specifically my Cyril/Merrick song so I don't want people thinking it applies to either of his romances here.

And a few of these are also for Cyril Lavellan instead of Cyril Ashara. For example, The Show Must Go On is for Trespasser when the mark is killing the Inquisitor.

ALSO: Hahaha I realized I need to put these songs in some kind of order because right now it's really strange to listen to as a playlist. Ops. I also apologize for my terrible taste in music.

honestly not my full playlist but.

[elegiaque]

nobody does it like you do. — AFRAID (EXPLICIT) (THE NEIGHBOURHOOD); OLD MONEY (LANA DEL REY); GASOLINE (HALSEY); DADDY ISSUES (THE NEIGHBOURHOOD); JUST BE (PALOMA FAITH); HYPNOTIC (ZELLA DAY);
