Rouge with a "feel good" attitude towards life.

You know what we need? Villain Songs.

Ignore the video, and come up with a character that fits Master Of Your Fate from Teen Titans (other than the Amazing Mumbo himself, who is obviously a bard with a multiclass into wizard-if you watch the other episodes with him in it, he displays all the personality one associates with bards).

I'd say you're right about him being a multiclassed bard/wizard, specializing in psychic damage and controlling his opponents. He is obsessed with performance and art, delights in manipulating adventurers into performing twisted plays or shows for his amusement, executing them if they make mistakes or bore him. His mental instability, however, means this happens a lot. Any adventurers that have attempted to bring this madcap master of ceremonies to poetic justice have met with failure.

And now for something completely different!

Waiting For Our Time - Styx

Lyrics Show
Looking up from where I stand
I see the vapor trail
Of a jet plane in the sky

Here the wheel is in my hand
But there's no wind in my sails
And life is drifting by

Still I hold on and wait
I know its not too late
And my breeze will come

Muse you satisfy my soul
Keep me warm while the
Cold world guards the gate

I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come

I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come

Your love has kept my dream alive
A vision of my life
With you here by my side

Every forward step I take
Every moment I'm awake
I feel your love inside

So close I feel it in my bones
I know I'm not alone as I climb this wall
But I, sometimes I get so high
I just want to live, love
And taste it all

I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come
I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come

Here tonight
I lie awake and watch you dream
Under the light of the moon
I wonder just how far we've been
And where we'll be
When the sun comes up
Will this be our date with destiny?

I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come

I'm searching
I'm wondering
I'm yearning
Waiting for our time to come

And I'm waiting

Tiefling who just became an adventurer and turning his life around.

Keeping in line with the Villain Song, animated or not, here's Hellfire. Heck, Judge Frollo is pretty much an Eberron BBEG already.

EDIT: Or a Raveloft darklord-in-the-making. You could argue that the cloaked demons are the Dark Powers mocking his hypocrisy, and the shadows at the end of the clip being the Mists gathering in preparation for his Act Of Ultimate Darkness and following one way trip to Ironic Hell.

I'd have to agree with you.  The faith of the Silver Flame seems very likely to produce characters like these, struggling with their faith and their human desires.  Since this thread's had little activity for a while, here's a new song to get the ball rolling again.


The Scythe - Elvenking


www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pUb7LGUyPg


On this night of Nights, She's coming my way
Under this rain, dirty with agony and pain
Mistress of Doom, winner of all fights
My glance is reflected in the blade of the Scythe

A sparkling golden sickle
Mows down souls whistling in the air
Reddens little by little
The seas of life and mankinds lairs

A fall into the abyss
Deep into agony and pain
Spiral down to the anguish
It had been all in vain

Welcome, please join the fair of failures
Enter into the hall of pleasures
Righteous the act to kill
Wasn't it one of Gods wills?

Leave behind all the trails of winter
The time has come for me to go
The fear has gone, the storm is over
And there's someone at your door

Another name to be carved
For every slash of my blade
Until the day you find
The one reflected is your face

Come, taste blood, rust and terror
Come to the show with no restraint
-It's your time!

Mother of desperation
Death of thunder and rain
Sighs and tears are all in vain
Clad in a cloak of despair
She'll take you away

Welcome, please join the fair of failures
Enter into the hall of pleasures
Righteous the act to kill
Wasn't it one of Gods wills?

Leave behind all the trails of winter
The time has come for me to go
The fear has gone, the storm is over
And there's someone at your door
Hold your ground and watch your back
With the aim of remaining the last
I asked this night for a piece of advice
This time the Scythe won't fall, keep still!

...and if you follow the trails down this winter wake
She's reaping down souls, one for every flake
Throughout the ages, through centuries
She, mistress of customs, of memories

This is pretty much what comes to mind when I listened to and read the lyrics of The Scythe - Elvenking, I hope it's alright:


 


Shadar-kai Avenger who serves the Raven Queen. She wields a scythe more for symbolism than utility purposes, bestowed upon her either as a gift from her Goddess or for completing her training. She vanquished the Queen’s foes wherever she came across them, whether the meetings were her intent or by merely happenstance.

She had no complaints about the killing.

Nothing could take her down until a fateful encounter with some crazed followers of Orcus left her dead and about to be risen as a mindless, undead servant. However, before the ritual could be completed, the Raven Queen raised her as a Revenant.

After blindly dispatching the acolytes of the Prince of Undeath, her understanding of the situation fell upon her. She had failed, been killed in battle. She was now undead, albeit at her Goddess’s discretion. Was this a gift? A curse? Or, worse than anything, the Queen’s pity?

Unaging, undying, and more devout than before her death she became a far more ruthless hunter of her Goddess‘s enemies than ever before. Eventually, maybe even the Prince of Undeath would come to shake in his boots at the mere mention of her. Maybe.

This gentleman is a rogue who enjoys the nicer things in life, but doesn't really like to work for them.  He took to the roguish life not because he had a score to settle or a penchant for stabbing people in the back, but because he was a loafer.  He does odd jobs for the locals, and sometimes dips into crime, but never beyond the odd bit of pickpocketing or a courier job for some crimelord.  He enjoys a unique position as a neutral party in the ongoing crime wars of the various cartels, since he's not committed enough to stick to one particular side.  When he has gold to spare, he likes to go to the tavern for a few beers with his friends, maybe play some cards, but nothing too big or exciting.  He's so mellow it seems disconcerting to some of the jumpier criminals.


Canticle of the Sun - St. Francis of Assisi


Lyrics


The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.

Praise for the sun, the bringer of day,
he carries the light of the Lord in his rays;
the moon and the stars who light up the way
unto your throne.

The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.

Praise for the wind that blows through the trees,
the seas mighty storms, the gentlest breeze;
they blow where they will, they blow where they please
to please the Lord.

The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.

Praise for the rain that waters our fields,
and blesses our crops so all the earth yields;
from death unto life her mystery revealed
springs forth in joy.

The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.

Praise for the earth who makes life to grow,
the creatures you made to let your life show;
the flowers and trees that help us to know
the heart of love.


The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.
