I was reading the excerpt on the WOTC site about the Abomination and saw this:
Abominations are living weapons that were created during the ancient cosmic war between the gods and the primordials. Some of these creations were enormous (such as today's art preview: the tarrasque), others small. Some were singular beings of terrific power, while others were legion. A few abominations stand apart as failed or incomplete divine experiments that have either been locked away or forgotten.
See, that's what I'm talking about. This is flavor text that is linked to the mechanics that can be easily ported into just about any campaign. Fantastic stuff. THIS is what I want.
