Leitmotifs in Tournament of Elements

The Anacondrai

A noble but forceful theme on brass and drums for the fearsome Anacondrai tribe. The leitmotif is composed of accented notes with slight rests in-between, which gives the purple warriors a powerful presence that sets them apart from other Serpentine.


Master Chen

Fittingly to his character, Chen is represented with a conniving leitmotif on strings. The theme harkens back to that of the Serpentine, which works well to emphasize his obsession with the Anacondrai. These similarities are even more present when the melody is played on a plucked string instrument.


Skylor

Kai and Skylor’s budding relationship is represented by this playful theme on flute and harp. It is worth noting that the harp melody, which seems to be the main body of the leitmotif, is overshadowed by the flute during Tournament of Elements, most likely due to Skylor’s role as a love interest in the season. However, in Hunted the harp sections can be heard individually when she returns as part of the Resistance.
