I am also faced with that quandry at some point, and will probably do a combo of Chaos Scar and my own adventures.  I haven't looked at the new Tiefling city book, but the dwarven one Hammarfast had lots of plot hooks to work with.Chaos Scar would need a DDI account, but then so does getting the character builder to build the classes you listed in your initial post.  Why not buy just one month, download the CB and the Chaos Scar adventures you need, and then cancel.  You can continue to use the CB after your subscription in cancelled and covers all the clasess and races available at that time.  Granted it isn't free, but it's not a ton of money either.Keep on the Shadowfell was the first published adventure for 4E.  I think you will find Slaying Stone a better experience.  I don't have many suggestions for you outside of that, sorry <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
