You should check out "Gothic" here:

'Gothic' sounds pretty damned bad-ass I agree, but I'm not completely sure where you would use it. It's so completely monolithic sound that it would destroy everything in its path. 

If you are going down that route though, make sure you get the tuned version. The strings and organ are both all over the map tuning-wise and together they sound like cats in a blender.
