Lets see what I can do...First off, you can ignore the Backgrounds, Reputation, and Allies and Enemies rules from 4CtF. We may or may not use Hyper Rolls, but either way the starting party likely won't be of the power level to need them (at least I hope not!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> )At start your characters will be as naked as the day they were born.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> This is partly the reason you're starting with 3 "free" HrPs. For those with 4CtF already, everyone is starting with the Heroic Powers feat. For those without, I'll give a brief explanation...One of the alternate rules in 4CtF is using HrPs to make up for any monetary deficiency the character may have. HrPs stand for Hero Points and are spent like Skill Points to purchase your Powers. So instead of magical items at start, you'll have some Powers to replace 'em.You can take any Super Feat you want, as long as you qualify for it. All Base Classes published by WotC are all right, and feats in 4CtF or the PHB are pre-approved. Feats from other sources have to be cleared first (as do all PrCs)Finally, here is a little more background for you....The world has fallen upon hard times. Discord has begun to spread through the lands, and the Lesser have fallen unusually quiet as of late. War has erupted among the normally peaceful Plainsmen of Rhiali. The Empire of Bostoc has begun to swell its army, and rumors say they have perfected some new weapon. In response the Empire's long-term enemy, the Free Cities of Ghin, have likewise begun recruiting for their armies, preparing for war. Religion, the long-time peacekeeper of the land is proving to be of no help. Indeed, many churches have begun to close their doors, leaving their flocks alone and abandoned. Why so many priests have chosen this time to turn their backs on the outside world is anyone's guess. Perhaps driven by some dark prophecy or omen, the dark races have begun to surge forth from their caves and lairs to trouble the countryside. Goblinoids and other dark beasts known before only in legend swarm throughout the fields and valleys, unchecked and unstopped. But worst of all, some would whisper, are the Brotherhood of the Inner Flame. No one is quite sure where they came from, but what they preach has spread throughout the lands like wildfire. The Lesser have turned their backs on us, they say, and given us up to the Chaos that lurks without. Each member is guilty of heresy, a crime punishable by death. The executions of convicted Brothers have become an almost common sight in some of the larger cities yet they never seem to lack converts to their cause. I'll try to get a little more information loaded background matter up in a little bit (as opposed to the relatively information light but pretty stuff I've shown so far  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> )</blockquote>
