Seeing as the ice boss got his own theme song from me I think the other most infamous robot in Descent -- the thief -- deserves one too. Look at the page on the link for more info and lyrics (yes it actually has lyrics ). The song is kind of a cross between Ratzez (on the D2 Redbook) and Rouge the Bat's style of music from Sonic Adventure 2 (Rouge was a thief after all). The structure of the lyrics themselves was based on \"Fill Your Pages\" by Zsolt Marx (a song from TrackMania Sunrise). The lyrics describe the theif perfectly and they could either be from his point of view or the player chasing him, and the song's frenetic pace fits the theif's hyperactivity.
If this had to go in a level I'd say D2 counterstrike level 7, it's such a big, interconnected level that the thief there practically owns it (in fact I've always considered that to be the Thief's \"theme\" level... it's even the same colours as him).
And yeah, I'll change the picture once I actually get a good shot of the thief.
