_{Songs with the “*” fit best :D — Still don’t have a reason for the others, they’re just there.}

If you have the time, I would love if you could make a playlist for my story!

So it's about a boy and his little sister who get taken and transformed into mutants by this scientist who also belongs to a cult. They were made into mutants so that they could begin WWIII by assassinating people in powerful positions such as queens, kings, presidents, representatives, etc. and create chaos and havoc. This will allow a certain cult to rise up to power and become a new beacon of hope to this "new world". Pretty much, the majority of the story is a competition for power and full of deception and schemes against everyone.

Vibes: Bada*s, dark, powerful, sly, dangerous, mysterious, sophisticated in a way that's still dark, villainous and deception.

Also, because there is a bit of torture and lots of death, maybe some sadder kind of songs that seem angry but sad. This might be hard to find, but if you could that would be amazing!

Thank you in advance! I checked out other songs you listed and the songs fit the vibes so well and you seem very talented in the musical area and it's super impressive!
