Underdark Songs

I figured I'd start a thread for people to contribute songs for the new Underdark Servers. Here are mine.

"Natha Mayar ulu Lolth" ~ by Vel'meth

And so I chance myself to Lolth.
My hair her thread, my skin her cloth
to weave a veil of poisoned death
to work and use while I draw breath.

For she grants beauty, grace, and might.
Against her vengance few can fight.
The fools who do, do also fall
when our goddess gives us her call.

And what is this? I hear it now.
Her voice does ask to have my vow.
So now I give into my hate,
And to my queen entrust my fate.

For I chance myself unto Lolth.
My hair her thread, my skin her cloth
to weave a veil of poisoned death
to work and use while I draw breath.

I had fun with this next one. It's supposed to be a drow nursery rhyme. Just sing it to the rhythm of London Bridge.

"Down to Blindengstone"

Down we walked to Blindenstone,
Tools of Lolth fully grown
And burned the city tumbling down,
Flames so pretty.

Take the gnomes and fix a stew.
Boil some for me and you.
Soon they will be turning brown,
Food so tasty.

Tie the rest up with some rope.
Make them march. Make them cope.
Now they're slaves all in our town,
So beat the lazy.

This song was made by Vel' for personal reasons, reasons she'd best keep unknown. But I think the song says enough.

"Neitar Qua'laen 'sohna" ~ Vel’meth

I ask of Lolth to hear this song
For its will is true, its verses strong.
I now admit to doing wrong
Against the faith where I belong

Yes I strayed with wisdom lost
And took a path not to be crossed
But wisdom came though great the cost
And never again shall I be lost

For I have seen the other side,
and turned away with Lolth’s guide.
Never again shall my faith be denied
For, to her will, I now abide.

Here's a song I'm proud of coming up with on the spot in front of two very "civilized" fey'ri.

"Natha Llieh Tangi" ~ Vel'meth

So bring the perfect day,
where Fey'ri and Ilythiir do slay,
the lesser ones who brought us down
to live in shadows underground.

And burning down their forts,
we'll ransack all their courts.
Until the last one does die
I shall wish only this to Darthirii.

Well that's all for now. I'll only be adding songs by editing this post so check it from time to time... if you like my rhyme.

That rocks Vel, that rocks. I never thought we would have a Lolthian bard/bae'queshel actually writing songs here in ALFA - so, well - that just rocks.

She may not have the training of a priestess, but Vel has other means of showing her dedication to the dark queen.

Yes. Devotion to the Spider Queen is varied and can be shown in many ways. Vel'meth's songs oh hate and vengance will inspire us during battle with our foes. The songs for the glory to the Dark Queen of Spiders and her followers

Figured with Vel leaving the PC scene that I'd post what I have done for her so far.

Starving for Favor ~ by Vel'meth

They can craft wards.
They can build walls.
Still they will feel
our swords when she calls.

My goddess, my queen,
my life, and my dream
to serve is ellation
to fail is starvation.

L'mriggen Bae'queshel ~ by Vel'meth

Skin like shining ebony
Eyes red as fire
Silken hair flowing free
And depth to her desire

A flower grown under earth
Bow taut with string
Faith kept from birth
And song most enchanting

Ode to the Prey ~ by Vel'meth

'Tis time for Lolth to feast
upon your flesh fowl beast
You cannot run
Your life's undone
Your soul shall be released

Mirror ~ by Vel'meth
I chanced to see a fly
And by a spider die
So like the trash
We burn to ash
The spider bled it dry
