==== Paying the Price lyrics ====
''The candles are lit''

''They walk in through the door''

''Clad in silken robes''

''The lamb tied on the floor''

''It bleats and it screams''

''Cries that you will ignore''

''The pursuit of power has far worse in store''

''Because you're paying the price''

''There's no turning back now''

''The blood on your hands washes off anyhow''

''You say it's in thanks''

''We all know that's not true''

''You murdered that girl just cause you wanted to''

== Trivia ==

* Cadence's current character model is adapted from [[Neon Prime|''Neon Prime's'']] '''Sumo'''. She is a large woman wearing a viking helmet, based on the [[wikipedia:It_ain't_over_till_the_fat_lady_sings|"fat lady"]] opera singer stereotype. She currently doesn't have animations.
* Two of Cadence's abilities use music from ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5w68Z-oX30 Cara Mia Addio]'', the "turret opera" song from the end credits of ''Portal 2''.
* Cadence's placeholder minimap icon uses an image of the ''Neon Prime'' version of [[Haze]].
