As our current heroic tier campaign in coming to an end, I want to start a little experiment using one of my favorite backgrounds. You guessed: Hyperborea. As a base I want to use the DnD 4th edition, as we are familiar with the system instead of the more 3.5ish Conan RPG.
First step: Which classes are appropiate. After some thinking I came up with this
Fighter
Ranger
Rogue
Warlord
Barbarian
Warden (maybe, I am not sure if I can reflavor his powers)
Schamane (maybe, I am not sure if I can reflavor his powers)
Bard
Sorceror (only as multiclass, and only after working for a few levels)
Wizard (only as multiclass, and only after working for a few levels)
Warlock (only as multiclass, and only after working for a few levels)
Out: Paladin, Cleric, Avenger, Invoker, Druid, Swordmage
