A Volcano With Some Subtlety
Added 2021-01-05 16:01:59 +0000 UTCI love some intense dungeon delving, but I have to admit that a lot of the non-combat moments that occur for the parties I DM are quite a bit quieter. Strange tombs and forgotten ruins might be filled with danger, but until a trap is sprung or an enemy alerted, the moment-to-moment gameplay is more about exploration, puzzle solving, and narrative.
For that, you'll need something relatively sparse. This reworked version of "Scorchcleft" is perfect for those intermediary moments, when parties are trying to understand your toddler-level lava puzzle, or decipher barely encrypted dwarven runes. I'm particularly happy with how the piano implies an intensity that it doesn't itself reach: I think this track makes clear that danger is omnipresent but not quite on top of the party at the moment.
As always, looping tracks are provided below! I've also updated the new Master Spreadsheet with info on these tracks, something I'll be doing for each additional new track moving forward.
