Hey folks!
The poll for this month's theme was a tie, so let's do both! This month I'll be focusing on tracks themed around either Legendary Monsters or Melancholy Moments. If any Bard tier supporters have specific track suggestions for those themes, let me know.
It should be an interesting month, that's for sure!
2021-10-05 10:13:10 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks,
I've finally updated the Foundry VTT module with all the latest tracks. That's 15 new tracks (for a total of 55 tracks) + I've added LOADS of new playlists + Fade in settings auto-applied + Moulinette support.
Hopefully I've not broken anything in the process of doing this update, let me know if things aren't right!
Enjoy!
"There are places where the elemental planes meet. Where the border is weak and the elements pour together. Where fire meets earth, there is destruction. But where water meets air, there is serenity."
Hey folks!
Today’s track is a collaboration with the incredible map-making duo Cze and Peku. I'm a huge fan of Cze and Peku's maps, and I'm sure you'll agree that this Kraken Airship Port map is staggeringly cool! Her...
The red and pink leaves of a large maple tree shelter the grove from the evening light. At the base of the ancient trunk the old woman sits, one hand pressed against the bark, the other flat on the mossy ground. She smiles from beneath her bamboo hat as you approach, lifts her head, and looks at you with colourless eyes. "At last, you have come."
Hey folks. I sat down to work on something else yesterday and instead this track came out! It's a relaxing and mystical atmospheric a...

It’s time to vote on next month’s theme. I have some great suggestions from my lovely Bard tier supporters, plus I’ve included last month’s runner up in the poll too.
Here are the options:
Melancholy and Bittersweet Moments - Suggested by Scout, who asked for “something for the bittersweet moments, like how the Twin Elms track from Pillars of Eternity is used in Critical Role.”
Heists and Hijinks - Sugge...

“As you crest the ridge you see chimney smoke rising from a handful of small cottages. A small stream flows through the mountain village, where children play and fishermen wait for the day’s catch. There is peace to be found here, a simpler life for those who seek it. Yet it is a hard life too, as you see in the faces of those villagers who you pass by.”
Hey folks!
Today’s track is a collaboration with the awesome map maker The Reclusive Cartographer.

'You slowly creep into the central chamber. You hear the sound of slithering as dozens of snakes swarm around your feet. From behind a pillar, a figure emerges, half-man half-snake. A priest of the Yuan-ti. "Why are you here?" it says through forked tongue. "Speak quickly, before my snakes devour you whole."'

Hey folks!
Thanks for your votes in the Patreon poll for September. The winning suggestion comes from Chris, who wanted a monthly theme dedicated to subtle background music that can easily be used during conversations and negotiations with NPCs or other player characters.
The other suggestions were fantastic and the top few runners up will carry over into the next poll.
This should be an exciting month as I have a few awesome collaborations planned, which means some extra g...

“Did you hear that?” one of the guards says below you. You freeze, clutching the rope that keeps you suspended halfway down the tower close. You press yourself against the stone, praying that your inky black cloak will keep you hidden in the nightlight. The guards stop, look up. I’m going to need you to make me a stealth check…
Hey folks, another stealthy track here for you, probably the final track this month in the Stealth and Subterfuge theme....

"Stray no further,” the old man says, his broken teeth and sunken chin the only thing visible beneath his hood. “There only be darkness and death beyond these woods. Misery upon those who venture there, a cursed land of watching eyes and wicked demons. Stray no further I say, lest they be the last steps you shall ever take.”

"Cloaked figures huddle in the centre of the graveyard. The mist coalesces around them like a shroud. You move from gravestone to gravestone, keeping low. Dead leaves crunch softly beneath your feet. Suddenly, the cloaked figures turn."
Hey everyone, another track in the Stealth and Subterfuge theme. This one is designed to be used in any moment or tension, suspense, or danger. An ominous drum plays throughout, whilst strange orchestral textures flow in and out...

"The angular shape of the derelict freighter hangs motionless amidst the asteroid field. You watch it grow larger from the window of your shuttle until it obscures your entire vision. Cautiously, carefully, you disembark. The silence of space greets you; the vacuum overtook the vessel long ago. The only sound is the creaking of the hull echoing dimly through your space-suit. You squeeze your beam-rifle with gloved hands and enter the wreckage of this once great star ship, not knowing what...

An assassin perches on a rooftop. A vial of poison is emptied into a cup of wine. A hidden blade is revealed in a dark alleyway.
The winner of the poll for this month's theme is Stealth and Subterfuge. Thanks to all who voted, and for Snoe who provided the winning suggestion. If any Bard tier supporters have suggestions for specific tracks within this theme, let me know. Looking forward to a month of backstabbing and skuldugger...

"As you enter the chamber, you feel a click beneath your feet. You look down in time to see the pressure plate sink into the ground. The door swings shut behind you, as does the one ahead. You hear a rumble as the ceiling begins to lower. In horror, you realise that if you do not do something, you will all be crushed. You have five minutes. What do you do?"

"Stepping into the portal was like settling into a warm bath, though the chill didn't jade from the air. At first everything muted-the roar of the river around the rocks below, the chirping of frogs and crickets on shore, the evening bustle of the town behind him... A moment later, the world erupted into vibrant life. Frogs and night birds sang a chorus; the air was awash with autumn scents; the moonlight painted the flowers in iridescent blue, silver, and violet; and the rushing of the r...

"Tall shapes loom out of the dense fog that surrounds everything. The muddy ground underfoot gives way to slick, wet cobblestones. The tall shapes become recognizable as village dwellings. The windows of each house stare out from pools of blackness. No sound cuts the silence except for mournful sobbing that echoes through the streets from a distance."
