| Cyric has been imprisoned by the other gods, due to his part in murdering Mystra and thus causing the Spellplague that devastared Toril.
This has been a big source of inspiration in my actual campaign.
There are no iconic NPC's. The world has moved on. The world is awaiting new heroes.
If I recall correctly each region has 2 or 3 plot hooks.
There is also a section that gives a description of the different organisations which pose a threat. This includes the Church of Bane and the Zhentarim. Each organisation details some henchmen or NPC leaders.
The focus is actually on Loudwater, a frontier town which is inland from the Sword Coast. The only adventure released is in the same area. But Cormyr and the Dalelands get more pages than the other regions.
