A Playlist of D&D-inspired Songs

Sometimes, I will pop in my CD of these and sing along, waiting for ... I don't know, inspiration or at least a sense of escape. There are literally dozens, if not hundreds, more but these are some of my go-to tracks. Enjoy!


Never Split the Party - I always enjoy the El Dorado, Last Airbender, and Mummy clips...


So many versions of this on YouTube, decided to go with the one from the album...


My four year old son lives this. He obviously doesn't get the double entendre but he keeps asking for the "loud song".


Grim but upbeat!





No real commentary here but I like the clip from Dorkness Rising at the end.


I feel the pain here... so many dead PCs over the years...


Yeeaahhh!!!


If you think your group doesn't have a "George", you may be him...

Cedron and Raven - In the Lair of the Lady (Part 2)

Image
09 Newkolt 349 AC Wickerbell spurs her bee into motion. The huge insect flies to the southern door where the brownie grabs the knob and twists. The door groans but creaks open on its hinges and hangs ajar. As Raven bounces off of the pillar and looks around the room, he sees the ogres trying to barge into the ruined sanctuary. Realizing that he and Cedron may be overwhelmed by the large number of enemies surrounding them, he draws Thorgrim, the cursed giant-slaying sword from its sheath and surrenders to the  berserker rage. He rushes the twisted giants, swords leading, putting all of his strength and anger into every swing of his blades. Nightwatcher carves through the chest and unwounded thigh of the nearest giant, bringing the Fomorian to its knees just in time for the snarling elf to strike its head from its shoulders. Raven’s momentum carries him into the second brute where the nigh-unbreakable blade hews completely through a leg the size of a tree trunk in a single blow! The ...

Cedron and Raven - In the Lair of the Lady (Part 3)

Image
09 Newkolt 349 AC Beginning of round Wickerbell cries out, "Ellessandra! That's enough! It's folly to persist! You cannot win!" The annis hag snarls, "Begone, fool! My revenge will not be stayed a moment longer! Fight, or count yourself among my enemies!" The small bee-riding fey recoils at the vitriol in her friend's voice. She kicks her heels into the flanks of her bee and it darts forward, slipping between Cedron and Ellessandra to land, straddling Cassidy's limp form. Raven starts to take a step toward the green hag but the arrival of the trolls causes Thorgrim to start throbbing again. The iron blade rattles against the floor. Raven snatches it up once more and mystic fury takes hold again. He bellows a challenge and leaps into the fray, the cursed giant-slayer leading the way.  Awestruck, but focused, Cedron witnesses the Little Black Bird of Death strike again and again against literally giant enemies… Cedron steadies himself from the impact o...

Road Trip to the Dragon Isles (Pashin to Ak-Krin)

Image
09-10 Newkolt 349 AC After taking the leader's sword, Arthur climbs onto Ag'nesallynn's back. The pair fly back toward Kashin with the dragon resuming her elven form before reaching the gate. "We will have to find somewhere to hide this chest. There ' s no way we're sneaking it into the city, but I would like to have it somewhere accessible so the people those mercenaries abused can recoup their losses." She reaches into the chest and pulls out a pouch, "But, I want to make sure Donson gets paid back. We can let him know where we hide the chest and he can make sure other merchants recover their stolen wealth." Arthur rolls his shoulder, puts on the magical goggles that allow him to see in the dark and begins to look for a spot to hide the chest. "I wonder how many poor souls they did this to, it's just wrong." The two keep searching and before long, they find a low rise with a small clump of skinny trees. Having few options, they ...

Silvanost - a Dwarven Murderhobo, More Griffon Bonding, Romulus Waits Around, and the Command Center Begins Shaping Up

Image
CONTENT WARNING: Grotto gets carried away while questioning Cuinar Elar and resorts to briefly waterboarding the aged ex-Councilor. I had considered editing that part out but I have decided to simply redacted it so the reactions to and consequences of the dwarf's actions will make sense in context.  14 Newkolt 349 AC AT CUINAR'S ESTATE . "Have your wine and drown your sorrows!" Grotto says. "Now you are best served as the town drunk rather than a true leader. Unless you have more to tell, enjoy the last of your days as a failure. Leader of the people as you would call yourself." Shadow leans on the desk with both hands and looks into the former councilman’s eyes and says “Look at me when I tell you that I have seen several gods die at the hands of mortals with a few legendary weapons. And I will venture a guess that if you are helpful you may get to see a god die too. And a bunch of dragons. So if you want to share the location of this fake Huma’s tomb. Or...

Silvanost - Consequences

Image
14 Newkolt 349 AC AT THE ABANDONED TEMPLE OF KIRI-JOLITH Shadow says to Grotto “Nicely done” when shown the hole in the door.  “Tell me about our path ahead?” Grotto tells Shadow about the traps and the layout of the tomb. He takes him to the room where he heard the voice and obtained the horn, the room where he fought the slug, the murals, then finally where the preserved lays. Shadow listens as Grotto explains what the layout of the tomb is and what dangers are ahead. He peers inside and his eyes appear to glow as scans the path with Arcane Sight as they go. When they finally reach the preserved elven warrior, Shadow's mystic vision reveals an aura of Transmutation magic that seems to hold the effects of the passage of time at bay. The corpse is still, in fact, decomposing, albeit at an unbelievably slow rate and aside from having been disturbed by Grotto stripping it of its armor and other possessions, seems intact. “Show me what you found and exactly where it was, my frien...

Pashin - Camp of the Cloaked Mercenary

Image
09 Newkolt 349 AC The Herald's performance ran all the way up to midnight. Mercenary thugs in the employ of the Green Dragonarmy arrived shortly thereafter to extort money from the owner, Stewart Donson. Arthur, not wanting to reveal his or Agnes’s presence in the city, did not interfere, an act that sat poorly on the conscience of both travelers. Agnes took Arthur’s hand, "My Knight, my love, we are not going to waste any more time. One of your wizard friends can send our message to my people. Right now, you and I are going to get justice for Donson and everyone else being bullied by this scum!" In the blink of an eye, Agnes the elf-girl was gone, replaced by Ag'nesallynn the Silver Dragon. Arthur grips the hilt of Lawbringer, the tone of his changing, becoming more resonate, "Let's go." Arthur walks out with Agnes ready to fight. The duo takes to the air, flying low across the city, literally skimming the roofs of buildings with the dragon's le...
