So I'm sitting around looking for inspiration for a new character, and going through some songs, and I come across one and immediately something clicks. The song plays, and by the end of it I know exactly what my new character is going to be like. Anyone else done this, or am I a freak? Anyone else have any music that fits their character?

I'll go first. The character is an evil karma assassin who is completely taken in by the Enclave's propaganda. He's just a little insane. He thinks he's working for them, but they don't have a clue who he is. He just has it in his mind that he's a patriot. A post-modern day Minuteman. Nathan is his hero. This is his theme song: I am the Owl, by the Dead Kennedys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfTQfnvscpQ

So, if YOUR character had a theme song, what would it be?

My character keeps getting attacked by every person he meets in the game. Because he keeps singing his http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOU8GIRUd_g too frequently.

.... I am so freaked out. I was seriously about to make this exact topic. O_<<<<<

HELL YES! XDD I have a whole playlist. Right now it's Aural Vampire - Hot Blood Workout, but I'm not always in an Asian music mood, so her other one is Spiderbait - Black Betty. It just sounds fierce and 'takes no sh** from anyone' DD
Those are general... I like to have them for others as well, like Charon's is Florence + the Machine - Blinding.
"It seems that I have been held in some dreaming state, A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake"

By the end of the game her ultimate theme song is Flyleaf - Arise.
"Hold on to the world we all remember fighting for, there's some strength left in us yet" :'((((
I'm so happy someone else does this. ;-;

Thunderstruck, by AC/DC.

(best played loud, VERY LOUD!)

So Nimble, uh, let me guess. Your character wears lucky shades and Colonel Autumns overcoat, and is VERY determined!

Default theme song for my Lone Wanderer is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0tsTgBKmhU


Perhaps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCt2nZF2nLk after winning a huge battle single-handedly


Finally, whenever the Enclave shows up, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ2ZFVx6A4Q starts blaring from her pip boy.

you do make me laugh. XD

I would have even done a hammer dance in Raven Rock if the Groovatron had one in it.

i think my theme song is dimonds arent forever

One of them is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0kxeQQSGIs

And for when I'm just cruising around in a sad lonely mood I play http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afE50zavd_o Might have to turn this one up to here it better.

And the theme song for my whole adventure is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dunKAwRN3P8

Metallica - The Unforgiven, and Metallica - Where Ever I May Roam

Whenever you hear http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSZTpPevnfE&feature=related then im close by.

I'd probably crap my pants before I saw you

Mine would be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tg2A7GSxoE or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgSt_QiumVc.

my guy is very evil at the moment and gets entoxicated by killing so this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09LTT0xwdfw just fits him perfectly

:mohawk:

Its my character against the world. His theme song would be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv9zDC5HaKs.

Also, due to his religious undertones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo24lUMCdvI would be fitting.

And when enraged, and about to engage in combat http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_MW65XxS7s would play. (Yeah, Im into FF)

I got hooked on these songs from the GTA IV soundtrack, but (aside from the non-50's theme) they carry over nicely to Fallout:

"Nickname" by Qadir
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvO4PleRod4

"War is Necessary" by Nas
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvO4PleRod4


But the ultimate theme song has got to be this:
Let the Bodies Hit the Floor by Drowning Pool
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VY_I6doz6Qk

oh yes, this is in my fallout playlist to, but i couldnt be botherd to find them all on youtube lol deuality and befor i forget by slipknot also go well with my guy

I <3 You.

I think you might be my long lost sibling.

I don't have themes for my characters but certain moments.

Like when I just need something to match my personality I play http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDzt6yI3Dw8

Or when I am about to leave Vault 101 forever I play http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XE9AwOWbn3k

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q3g3bJhRCU

My crazy neutral wanderer character's song is definitely http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sghv7aS6gPc.

I know one thing. When New Vegas comes out, I'll be playing this alot: Cowboys from Hell, by Pantera: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGhZ6mH7P-g&feature=related

Totally, man. You can't have one song represent all of you. Different moods, settings, and moments warrant different tunes!

Thats just how we roll.

Here are just a few:

Stealth - Night Prowler AC/DC
Heavy Weapons build - Kiss God of Thunder
Flamer specific - Burn it to the Ground Nickelback
Subway crawling - Rats in the Cellar Aerosmith
Zeta - Invader Judas Priest
Mirelurk Attacks - Rock Lobster B52's
Getting First Power Armor - Not Fragile BTO
Alternate background music Black Sabbath Black Sabbath
Littlehorn Associate Murder Inc. Bruce Springsteen
General Bad A** - Riff Raff AC/DC
Who Dares Wins - Hanger 18 Megadeath
Take it Back - Seek and Destroy Metallica
Getting to Level 20 - Slave to the Grind Skid Row

Most likely an ambient command and conquer piece of music for sneaking (such as red sky).

Main theme: Battlefield 1942 theme (I just love that theme, as BF1942 was one of the first online shooters I played).

Running around with flame-based weaponry: Arthur Brown - Fire
