+      "Welcome to Xedra Evolved, the urban fantasy mod for Cataclysm.  This mod adds folklore based enemies, experiences and magicks to the Cataclysm.  Humans who experience particularly vivid dreams might learn how to wield them into strange magicks. Former Xedra employees include cyborgs with stolen bionics, magick wielders and even a Gracken or two.",
+      "The world of Xedra Evolved had decades of dimensional seepage and places where our world connected to other realities.  During these years before the Cataclysm the world became weirder.  Supernatural creatures from myth and legend returned, visited for the first time or left the shadows.  Some games you'll fight against them.  Some days you may very well be one of them.",
+      "There are multiple types of supernatural beings that the player can start as or sometimes become.  It is intended that their abilities cannot be mixed and matched except in very specific circumstances.",
+      "Some times you may want to play a normal game with extra enemies and no dream magick, take the Dreamless trait.",
+      "One last thing: remember to bind the Supernatural Powers key to use your powers!"
