Also, what's the walk-out music for your current PC?
I know exactly what it is after he died last session: Can’t Go to Hell. Or possibly just the sound my speaker makes when it dies. It powers down. And then it does it again. And then three more times. Quite symbolic of how he was quite nearly dead many times. Then the level 6 rogue used his stealth and Ciáran Draoidh was no more.

For my other PbP character, Tronolon, it might be this:
This has to be what Tron's voice sounds like in game.

Because I love changing the playback speed of recordings, I tried changing the speed on this, making it faster (1.25-2 speed). and at least to my (somewhat) musically trained ear, 1.5 sounded the best when speed up, but it doesn't sound very good on .25 - .75 speed. don't know why I am saying this, just thought it was interesting. I am continually amazed at all the stuff you do for Wyrlde.

I am running a grimdark campaign here on DNDbeyond (hopefully none of my players read this), and I am basing the seven main bosses of the game on the seven deadly sins. what would be some of y'alls suggestions for monster stats (I roughly know that pride is the most powerful, followed by gluttony, then greed, then sloth, then wrath, then lust, and envy at the bottom of the totem pole.) I imagine each as a demonic version of a humanoid (don't ask why, but it's something like: goliath for pride, animal-people for gluttony, dwarf for greed, elf for sloth, firbolg for wrath, gnome for lust, human for envy) with a glowing gem shard in its chest with a corresponding color to its sin.

well, first off, it is going to depend on the party, lol.
We need a rough idea of what the party levels will be for each of them.
Also, particularly, if you are going to use a seven deadly sins motif, you should consider the seven heavenly virtues as magical McGuffins with which to combat the sins -- one cannot merely beat a sin into submission, after all, one must counter it with an appropriate virtue (see, those years in seminary did have a use!).

I cannot take credit for that.
The underlying piece is "Beautiful Trip" by Oleg Fedak, from Kryvyi Rih/Ukraine, found at Pixabay, to which I added a couple of minor loops adjusted to fade in and out.
I am a dabbler -- my dabbling can be obsessive at times, lol, but I often carry it forward and use stuff down the road -- I have some more creative and personal stuff I've created, but that's mostly for specific things and moments during games or for the inevitable powerpoint deck, lol.
I do have a "musical" thing in mind specific to Wyrlde, but I have to have access to my full loop collection for that, and I'm not too keen on the work involved in making that a possibility.

My first thought for envy was a quickling or something similar, with barely any health but it’s super fast and does high damage.
Gluttony should be able to heal itself while dealing damage to others, like the wither and bloom or life transference spell.
For greed, I’m thinking a creature that could steal spells and use them against players, or maybe it can just copy them, to make them more fair.

The party will be lvl 7 for envy, lvl 9 for lust, lvl 11 for wrath, lvl 13 for sloth, lvl 15 for greed, lvl 17 for gluttony, and lvl 19 for pride.
They consist of a human champion fighter (Pole arm build w/ spear), bladesinger wizard, tempest cleric/storm sorcerer, Stars Druid, & Divine Soul Sorcerer.
What about each of the seven heavenly virtues are in the form of items? like powerful weapons/implements that would have to be used to get the killing blow on the boss. maybe wrath could be an axe, and.... (long train of thought)

Oh, well in that case it would be Go With the Flow, by the High Kings.
Definitely Mighty Little Man by Steve Burns for my gnome Rune Knight.

Creating Epic Boons on DDB

Now that I understand walk-out music is what plays when you make an entrance, I have to change my tune...
So for general entrances of villainous sorts, I suspect it must be https://open.spotify.com/track/7c9UV6hVi1x9yBeolePYNZ?si=c09b89afd6f1462d although iit could also be https://open.spotify.com/track/1lMTmKwVlSVhqGhFcqPLLJ?si=56e7ffee6b8c4d7e
For Marketplace NPCs, it is probably something akin to https://open.spotify.com/track/2sw8teIvVMRZKKYD5p795f?si=15204461b4cf4719 because Marketplaces seem slow and rhythmic, but become syncopated until you catch on.
For Powers That be and other Spirits, well, that's obviously https://open.spotify.com/track/7pqZZcz4K6Oitb9G8hXJUG?si=05840525cb26439b
For major NPCs I should probably use https://open.spotify.com/track/3doxURNybgE4qvvItG1Qk4?si=85d556d694a94ccf or maybe https://open.spotify.com/track/3zKAZWa3KinlGdhm41IG5A?si=2b719a87abdb4dcc
As for entering Wyrlde, well... http://www.wyrlde.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Journey-to.mp3

For Yankedoodle the warforged, 80s rock lore bard it would probably be Thunderstruck by AC/DC or Separate Ways by the Journey.
For Wampus it would probably be Dear Fellow Traveler by Sea Wolf.
