The party descends into the core of an ancient, city sized computer. Electricity pulses through cords the size of tree trunks as unseen mechanisms whirl and churn. Components of what was once called the God Machine attempt to spin to life, only to fail, over and over again as the system tries to reboot from whatever calamity befell is so long ago. Despite the damage however, it still lives. The lift finally stops its mile long descent, letting the party off onto the precipice of a massive, pressurized, hangar door. The pops and cracks of millennia old locks suddenly breaks the silence, as the doors slowly pull apart, and like the mouth of some behemoth, open to allow the party entry into the dark core within.

A super heroes table top game, Make this a large encounter vs big baddie minions almost power ranger style. Tons of action tons of mooks over a long area space. Becoming more of a test of endurance then a test of outright damage.

I would like to think the area would be somewhere on a coastline. Perhaps best over a coastline docks with tons of warehouses. The end goal will be to prevent a baddie bosses escape. As the heroes are on pursuit.

I mean, you could just play this during an entire session of L5R non stop and it would work fine.

Easy answer is a heist, spy game, or getting into a fight with some mobsters.
So I'm going to say the party participates in a tournament, and one of the pcs is matched against a female dex fighter or monk, and this is her theme.

The end of a horribly dark campaign where the PCs are struggling with a rapidly advancing flower taking root in their flesh. They must get close to the source of the infestation, a single blooming flower on top of a hill, while hacking through an increasing amount of creeping vines, their own corrupted limbs and fellow comrades be they NPCs or other PCs comrades.

Walking through a snake temple. Stone carvings of snakes twist around everything. The ceilings, the floors are mosaics of snake design.
At the center of the temple is a 20 ft suit of armour of arabic design with 3 cobra heads made of gold emerging from the collar.
The party has to retrieve an item in the statues grasp.

Upon taking the item, the statue comes to life and stands up.

It's not invulnerable but it's body has a huge amount of HP due to being solid metal.
The heads are made of a softer metal gold, but are still pretty durable.

The eyes of the cobras glow red hot, they form a beam half a foot wide that travels indefinitely. as the beam from it's vision hits a party member nothing happens.

But when it's gaze hits a visage of a snake, that snake comes to life after 1 turn.

The DM rolls a 1d4 to determine the size of the snake. The bigger the roll, the bigger the snake.

The statue draws two scimitars and is hostile to the player.

It has four hitboxes, a body, and three heads.

(The goal should be to melt the gold, block the vision, destroy the snake depictions.)

Let combat commence.

You fight the empty man, he live in a blank inhabited space without feature, without name or history. Just like him.
He is not even really fighting back, his very presence erode memories and identities. He wanted to reach others, if even for a bit, but it turn out for the worst. Time to die now.

Straightforward fight, no trick or backing down this time.

You've overlooked the noble brat for too long because of how edgy he fucking was. He was even a recurring joke in the campaign. But turn out he is actually freaking good with the cheesiest built imaginable and his emo poetry about devil wasn't just his imagination.

A whole slew for the thread to pick apart. Look at me i'm an attention whore!
I think a mark of a really good reply in this thread will involve putting a song into a context where it isn't already typecast for. Mexican dance song 'not' being the backdrop of narco encounter for example or mongol throat singing being applied as the backdrop of ratmen superweapon construction (Total Warhammer 2)

Absent of the nordic tribal asthetic the musical beat can be misidentified as a the clanging of tools on stone. The song is played as the overlay for the DM describing the plight of a forced labour camp and the subjugated folks living there. The dialogues being the undercurrent's air of dissatisfaction between them.

This would be perfect for a gothic fantasy with anime influences. Very 1990s. Castlevania and Heretic/Hexen come to mind.

Honestly I can see this best being for the starting encounter before the party enters a whole dungeon crawl of a castle. Add in dark atmosphere, With Torchlight lite graves over a large valley. And have the party just blast their way through a few random encounters of Ghouls, Zombies, Gargoyles, Worgs, and the like. Dnd would likely be a good fit. Perhaps other fantasy systems.

I want to say the pc's hatch an ill advised get rich quick scheme in Cyberpunk or Shadow Run, but I'm pretty sure "Disability Checks" are considered dirty words in both those settings.
Maybe Vampire the Masquerade, with the thought being that whichever player gets to be the "lucky" one to collect disability can be healed up real quick after the party collects their money.
