Pitch The Setting
skakid:
I'd actually take the text off the back of Storm Front.
Prefferably the add section and the first paragraph. The rest is isolated to the book itself, but the first paragraph gives a good intro to what a wizard might do in this setting.
Lanodantheon:
You mean:
Harry Dresden is the best at what he does. Well, technically, he's the only at what he does. So when the Chicago P.D. has a case that transcends mortal creativity or capability, they come to him for answers. For the "everyday" world is actually full of strange and magical things -- and most of them don't play well with humans. That's where Harry comes in. Takes a wizard to catch a -- well, whatever.
I guess that's good at summing it up.

1st Attempt aka the Don LaFontaine Approach:
There's another world out there, a world of things that go bump. The classic fantasy nasties are real and the Normal world is one big smorgasbord. The only people who can protect humanity and keep this world underwraps are the ones with power or who are smart enough and clever enough to survive or are just too stupid to be scared. People like Harry Dresden, the only man in the Yellow Pages under Wizards.

I like this one... You should write promo blurbs! :D

Since my Dresden Files RPG will be an event from the high-school, I'm going to take it down to a level I hope they'll understand.
"It's right under everyone's noses. The magic, the monsters. Welcome to The Dresden Files. How do we get this? Take Harry Potter. But instead of a little teenager boy, make it a wise-cracking twenty-thirty-something wizard living in perpetual poverty in Chicago who works as a PI sleuthing around for some justice. And the baddies? This is stuff that would make Rowling's creepy-crawlies soil their trousers. We've got vampires, we've got fairies, we've got demons. We've got freaking frozen turkeys that fall out of the sky to use as homing missiles. There's no limit. It's The Dresden Files."
