Cool song - Norgarth - 04-12-2018
lyrics are in the description

Lyrics are in the description on youtube
RE: Cool song - robkelk - 05-30-2018
So... powers?
RE: Cool song - Bob Schroeck - 07-23-2018
I like'em all... I have the beginnings of some ideas bubbling up. Let me think on it a bit.
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 09-09-2018
To be honest I was thinking of them as theme music for battles rather than actual power songs. Same with these two:
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 09-17-2018
Another 'battle scene' possibility
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 09-25-2018
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 10-03-2018
Again, not so much a power song as something I think would work as a battle soundtrack
RE: Cool song - Bob Schroeck - 10-07-2018
Oh, damn. Good stuff, especially that last.
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 11-21-2018
More thematic songs (as opposed to power songs)
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 11-25-2018
EDIT: Okay let's try this again...
RE: Cool song - hazard - 11-25-2018
Can't see anything Norgarth.
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 02-12-2019
Another 'battle soundtrack' idea rather than a powersong
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 05-22-2019
Once again, more theme music than power song
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 06-30-2019
RE: Cool song - Star Ranger4 - 07-01-2019
Hmmm. I definatly think that *if* this is a power song instead of a 'mood' music one, there is a power here. And it seems to me that in V&V game terms (since that is the original framing for Doug's powers) we are looking at either a directed power that doubles the willpower stat of the target, or gives everyone in the AoE bubble a will save to stand up and get back in the fight every combat round or so

Dunno what this one might be - maybe some kind of mobility boost, or timefuckery so Doug can walk anywhere in the world in (to him) the duration of the song, but to outside observation as long as he'd normally take at (at most) a brisk walking pace? Like a surface-based version of Fly Like an Eagle, where time keeps on slippin' slippin' slippin', into the future. (I suppose if he did the math for how long it would take him to walk X laps of the equator it could be a forward-only time travel song, if he got stuck in the past from where he wanted to be somehow...) Also including walking across water due to the strong theme in the lyrics, or maybe only if he has water to walk on? Maybe a dream-walking mental effect, instead? Mmm, like I say, I don't really have any standout ideas, but it definitely feels powerful to me.

Lyrics:
Sometimes I’m the moon shining along the river
sometimes I’m the river carrying all away
If I walk among the stars I see the loneliness
these are useless days of heedless and hidden men
The world has changed colours and buried the memories
The blue sky, green fields and the blue sea
Mother, Father, and the childhood dreams
Mother, Father, and the childhood dreams
Walk through the endless rain of time
Over empires that rise and fall
Walk with me on dark waters
Walk like heroes
Walk with me on life and death
Walk like heroes
Walk with me on all that flows
Walk like heroes
Over right, over wrong
on the wings of a deathless song
where dreams appear like the stars to sailors
Sometimes I'm the silence dominating the ocean floor
Sometimes I'm the ocean that turns into storm
If I walk among the stars I see the misery
These men are hopeless crushed by heaps of gold
The world has changed colours and buried the memories
The blue sky, green fields and the blue sea
Mother, Father, and the childhood dreams
Mother, Father, and the childhood dreams
Walk through the endless rain of time
Over empires that rise and fall
Walk with me on dark waters
Walk like heroes
Walk with me on life and death
Walk like heroes
Walk with me on all that flows
Walk like heroes
Over right, over wrong
on the wings of a deathless song
where dreams appear like the stars to sailors

another potential battle soundtrack song
RE: Cool song - Star Ranger4 - 02-08-2020
You have a point. Yet somehow I personally see Doug's mage-gift as being a bit more litteral; allowing Doug to lead forces in his AoE (in this case an oblong 'oblate(?) (distorted, certainly) down a previously unknown, forgotten, or just mostly untraveled road.
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 08-05-2020
Another 'soundtrack' song rather than a power granting song
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 11-29-2020
Heard this on the radio and looked it up to get a better read on the lyrics.
Black Sabbath - I
I could see it being theme music for an antihero or just a hero who's had enough.
Alternatively as a power song it might make Doug a nigh invulnerable 1-man army for the 5 minutes of the song (though possibly with some anger issues)

But does it dress him in a blue body suit with hood, and antenae? would it give him the urge to Yell "Spoon!" as he charges into the Frey?

Sorry, whenever I see the Words "Nigh", and "Invulnerable" together I tend to be "Tick!"-ed

Belldandy might get upset if Doug did that... unless Frey was in a fray. Or an affray.
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 03-19-2021
once again, no real power ideas, just a song I like might work for a soundtrack
RE: Cool song - Norgarth - 04-16-2021
heard this on the radio and thought it might make good background music for a 'fighting the big bad' scene
