That was a pretty cool little piece there, I agree. How about having a few of those short "hooks", stories, whatever, and randomize which one's show up on the loading of the home page.I could see there being several stories: one for each cabal, first person perspective for the various races, classes, and so on.P.S. I actually like the idea of having the hook be something text-y like that that paints a picture with words (rather than a fancy picture), because, well, that's what CF is all about. Good stuff.
