what about an expansion that does extend into other/higher planes/realms? I just dug out my Unearthed Arcana and Deities & Demi-Gods books (last ones i bought playing pnp). Chars on a quest for saint/godhood would needs the celestial planes bestrode to search out for fight/favor of their particular pantheon. Loosing a fight with or favor of a deity has almost never resulted in outright oblivion for the luckless looser, nicht wahr? recall this line, done many ways and times- I'm not going to kill you, that would be too easy and just end your suffering. Oh no, you must be ALIVE to truly suffer the full extent of your fate.... POOF!!, big puff of smoke, and the up-to-now indestructable 27lvl mage with every magic goody has become a frightened hafling one step ahead of the hungry kobolds in some backwoods somewhere. Quest back from that one, buddy! That would certainly test your strategizing muscle. Or is that just way to deaux ex machina (sp?). Whaddya think? doable? playable?
