### Sources
The majority of the options below are found, and best described, in the *Cypher System Rulebook*, with an open gaming
version available via the [Cypher SRD](http://www.cyphersrd.com/). Most others come from *Godforsaken*, which will
eventually be added to the Cypher SRD. Anything homebrew we'll write up and link to here.

I skipped listing a lot of the core content, because there's no point in repeating that everything in the core book/SRD
are fair game --- the exception to this are the foci, which are tailored below.
### Types, or ideas therein
The four [types (SRD)](http://www.cyphersrd.com/type.php) are all relevant to the game (note: the SRD is currently
missing some Warrior tables). That resource, and additional information in *Godforsaken*, have suggestions on how to
build all of the classic classes via the type system. For example, a barbarian would likely be a Warrior that takes the
Rages ability, but a bard might easily be an Explorer or a Speaker, depending on the concept and desired abilities.

[Customization (SRD)](http://www.cyphersrd.com/type_customization.php) continues additional ideas, especially Flavors,
which are not dissimilar to the idea of subclassing. A spellblade may be a Warrior with the Magic flavor, for example.

*Godforsaken* has the best guidance here, though plenty of ideas are presented in the core book/SRD.
### Descriptors
Descriptors are the adjectives for the character, describing how the character goes about their business. All of the
[Descriptors (SRD)](http://www.cyphersrd.com/descriptor.php) in the core book are fair game, generally speaking, as are
the [Fantasy Species Descriptors (SRD)](http://www.cyphersrd.com/genres.php). *Godforsaken* also has a couple more, plus
