Forums » Forum Games » Musicals: Character Edition!

If your character was in a musical, what would their song be? Repeats are completely fine, and their tune can come from anywhere as long as it's a musical song that complies with RPR's guidelines.

The road ahead may twist, but I will never swerve.
I'll give them all the unsung anti-hero they deserve!
I've nothing left to lose, so the only path to choose
is twisted...

Let the stormy clouds chase everyone from the place
Come on with the rain, I've a smile on my face
I'll walk down the lane with a happy refrain...

I'm down to one last shot
And my last high note
Before that blasted underworld
Gets my goat

It’s so funny you mention this! I was joking about this with some friends about what our characters would do in a musical, and what their song would be.

Alkereth’s number in a musical would be this:

Into the Unknown, male version. It’s actually pretty 💋👌 and I highly recommend!

He would likely sing in response to Lunrath’s mysterious call to become the next Harbinger, a crucial duty Alkereth wasn’t ready for. Let alone the danger and adventure that came with it!

I mean it's one of his nicknames, he may or not already hum the tune while he walks around already

This would be Damien's song.
They're all about new ideas, ingenuity and progress, sooo

Had to go for the metal version but regardless this is an amazing song:



BUT... one of my favorite songs:

On the lighter side of musicals...

I'll be there someday,
I will go the distance...



On the darker side...

Cheesy? Maybe...but the words are true enough as I do have A Heart Full of Love

oh, fun fun. too bad people already took all the cool ones i had in mind, dagnabbit. never mind, i have backups

majima; my name from oliver. for obvious reasons.
"Strong men tremble when they hear it!
They've got cause enough to fear it!

It's much blacker than they smear it!
Nobody mentions...
My name!"



kinoshita; roxie from chicago. for, once again, obvious reasons. very befitting considering her whole thing is knifing rich men
"I'm gonna be a celebrity
That means somebody everyone knows
They're gonna recognize my eyes
My hair, my teeth, my [BLEEP], my nose

From just some dumb mechanic's wife
I'm gonna be Roxie
Who says that murder's not an art?"



and of course, last but not least, kameko and majima's rival song is OBVIOUSLY the confrontation. 25th anniversary edition. naturally.
"I am warning you, Javert
There is nothing I won't dare
If I have to kill you here
I'll do what must be done!

You know nothing of Javert
I was born inside a jail
I was born with scum like you
I am from the gutter, too!"

Well, I admit that in the past I've been a nasty.
People weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch.
But you'll find that nowadays, I've mended all my ways...



Yung Din is heavily inspired by Ursula, so this song definitely would be his.

Song she was based off of: https://open.spotify.com/track/1FpVJ7HpZInE2GvhVE2TwT?si=14fc9d0e70d044d5

I also wrote a song for her. I'll edit this post when I find the lyrics

Be an object of devotion...
Be the subject of psalms...
It's a rather touching notion,
all those prayers and those salaams...

And who am I to bridle,
if I'm forced to be an idol?
IF THEY SAY THAT I'M A GOD,
THAT'S WHAT I AM!

“This is one hundred percent my song.”

Yes, yes...Rowdy is a romantic if you can get under his thorny surface.

“What other song would I have but a villainous one?”

There....there was never another choice here.
