Also, don't be afraid to inject a little humor.
I've always thought this would make a great framework for a story,
Jubei, a (WerewolfNinja) seasoned zealot is sent into the wastelands (neutral zone) to investigate a missing patrol.
Nagisa, a (CyberPirate) first-class vanguard is sent into the wastelands (neutral zone) to investigate a missing patrol.
One of them encounters a homeless beggar (HB) in front of an outpost.
(HB) "Well, you look like an impressive individual, can you spare a few scraps?"
"No, I'm on a mission"
(HB) "What are you looking for? Maybe I can help?"
"I'm looking for the scumbag (WN/CP) that ambushed our patrol."
(HB) "What are you gunna do when you find them?"
"I'm going to attenuate them with my dem-pre and decompose them with my incul-DGMA."
(HB) "incul-dgma?"
"Yes, my incul-DGMA."
(HB) "Incul-DGMA? What the heck does that do?"
"Let me demonstrate."
(HB) "(gulp), holy-crap."
You get the idea,
Here's the outline in 6 minutes,
Glossary: Dem-pre = Demanding Presence - Incul-DGMA = Inculcated Dogma.
