In a cavern of unknown depth, in the fetid breath of the massive dragon wearing a cheshire grin, a lone warrior parlays with it, the anathema, slayer of comrades who lie nearby in a heap. The dragon’s leftovers. The camera looks down on the scene from a high angle, showing the dimension of the deep cavern. The dragon is 1/3 of the frame, curling it’s tail loosely around the pile of bodies. It has two great wings, a hunting-feline countenance in its crouched posture, and spikes running along the ridge of it’s back from the four wickedly curved horns on its head down to the two long thorns at the tip of its tail. It’s four ember-glowing eyes curve in amusement at the lone survivor as blood drips from it’s fangs and claws. The lone warrior is perhaps 1/20th the size of the beast, and stands squarely before it’s maw in a fog of green vapor exhaled from the dragon’s nostrils, holding a spear in one hand with the other outstretched, palm up, towards the dragon. The heap of dead hoarded by the dragon dwarfs the survivor, it’s pinnacle 2-3 times taller, and sits about ten paces away in a pool of blood growing around it. The shadow of one of the fallens’ arms, locked in an reaching position since death, casts a shadow that stretches towards the survivor.

We're about 3 lines deep into the "first they came for" poem. It's not a very long poem, folks

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

The most powerful words you can say right now to these fascist bastards is:

"No, make me."

They cannot actually be everywhere and enforce their fascist policies. They rely on fear to do the job of governing for them. By refusing to comply, you make their means of compliance ineffective.
