    Techno and electronica are decidedly warforged territory. So unless I have the goblins having invented the warforged... Which is not a half bad solution, honestly.

    Or I could ditch warforged, but I mean. Daft Punk warforged.

    Wait, if Bowie is gonna be the goblin king, why aren't the goblins doing prog rock? Too close to the other rock stylings?

    Because Bowie is glam?

    I might be the worst person ever and give the goblins disco

    Or if I could find a way to distinguish club music as its own thing, maybe that, but it is really kind of a medley of like, pop, hip hop, and electronic.

    Alright, the only two genres I have left in my massive list are industrial and reggae, and the only races I have are githzerai, thri-kreen, and shardminds

    Any suggestions as to which goes where?

    Githzerai could be reggae if you flavor it right.

    Just make them sail the Astral plains on islands of mini-Jamaica.

    I've been thinking avenger, for him.

    Remember I am working with fourth edition here.

    But avengers are effectively demon hunters.

    I guess I need gods too at some point. I mean the obvious choice is each race has a god it worships representing the musical style in some way, but that is kind of boring. I could also go with no gods, only deified great heroes, which allows me to keep certain folks still in the game.

    Half-orc is solidly hard rock, not sure what class though. Maybe like, warden.

    Maybe even bard.
