I don't know if I'll get a chance to Rogue this song up for the #septemberchallenge , but anyone who wants to should totally give it a go. This song demands to be an eidolon.
Awake, my masters!

#septemberchallenge
(I've been wanting to use this album and the associated music videos, and after seeing Charlie Vick's 80s video Rogue https://plus.google.com/u/0/104219282502793301924/posts/NfMQmL3M1Nr, I knew I had to write it up. I've picked out some particular songs, but really this whole album and the music videos for it are Glum in a great way. Whole album at http://youtu.be/Mc0Gcdi5b6g )
The Dead Rider
Testarossa: His steed. Red chestnut coat clad in red tack, bonded to him in death. He appears and rides her only at night, full speed, reckless. They have nothing more to lose, after all.
Jennifer: His lover. His only regret in death. His only purpose beyond speed. He writes her letters, leaves them in secret places for only her. He watches over her. She is scared of him, even when he protects her from the bandits and lifts her into the saddle for a final ride. Maybe she is right.
Saddlers Guild Journeyman's Surcoat: A promising young saddler, he was brought down while riding Testarossa on a treacherous road one stormy night, wearing this. Emblazoned with the symbol of the Guild on one breast, a white "K" on a red field, he is granted some authority by tradesmen and peasants. His glowing eyes quiet the rest.
Jovial: Odd Look
Kavinsky - Odd Look
He speeds through and past his enemy. When they turn to look, he is already behind them again, Testarossa rearing and bringing metal shoe onto their skull. Without slowing he rides down the next.
Glum: Nightcall
Kavinsky - Nightcall (Drive Original Movie Soundtrack)
He holds Jennifer in his arms, silently and solidly withstanding the clubs and arrows. He looks over his shoulder, eyes glowing. Electricity flashes from him, and his enemies collapse and fall silent too.
Trick: Locus. He is drawn here. A rainy cliffside road, in deep night, traversed in such conditions only by those dead or those about to die. Goodnight.

Dario, peregrino
He walks the same walk every year, always bringing a new story or a half composed new song . There are so few of us left who still stop to listen.
All that deserves a name
Trasto: That is how he calls his lute, and by the looks of it it is almost a compliment. Until he starts playing.
Maria: He wraps himself in this cape, and whispers a woman's name.
Chucho: A mutt that always trots by his side.
Feats Heroic
Fiesta (Jovial): Everybody is wearing their best shirt, and the lads and girls are looking at each other across the floor. The first notes are almost lost among the laughter.
Recuerdo (Glum): The dance floor is now empty. The old man is still sitting in the same place, and looks at him with a plea in his eyes. The first notes draw a sad smile across his face.
Trick
Locus The main plaza at a small village, the day after the harvest.
