A new free excerpt on Plane Above featuring the intro and a campaign theme overview is available:
Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Plane Above Excerpts: Intro & Themes)
Interesting stuff. There are a few new story elements to be found there:
- Lattice of Heaven that was destroyed during the Dawn War and Erathis wants to restore
- Introducing the Quom (I presume only to 4E, but I am not familiar with them), a once peaceful race whose god was destroyed, so they try to restore him now - requiring violence.
- Exalted, restored mortals that are only immortal in the Dominion of their god, but still sometimes sent out as agents for their god.
- Outsiders, restored mortals that no longer can enter their Dominion after events during the Dawn War.
- There is also some stuff about Maruts and Couatl, two of the 4 major races in the Astral Sea (aside from Quom and Gythanki)
There are also a few interesting campaign themes:
- Exploring the Infinite Sea - it discusses making exploration the primary goal of the game. That sounds interesting.
- Overcoming Heaven's flaws - Restore the Lattice of Heaven, or get the outsiders back into their Dominions
- Adventure into Myth - change the world for a better place or make things worse if you fail. Exalted D&D Style?
