- All systems like Spellcasting, Martial maneuvers, Spheres, etc are transformed to 1 RFS per level (For a total of 20 RFS at lv 20)
- All systems with Full proression costs 20 RSF (Like Wizard spellcasting), systems with 3/4 progression costs 10 RSF (like Bard's Spellcasting) and 1/2 progresion systems costs 5 RSF (like Paladin's Spellcasting)

14. Is a character background required? If so, how big? Are you looking for anything in particular (i.e. the backgrounds all ending up with the characters in the same city)?
You been isekaied to a fantasy world, explain who are you in your past life, also, explain your character concept/build.
15. Does your game involve a lot of hack & slash, puzzle solving, roleplaying, or a combination of the above?
It will be a sandbox, so up to players which direction they will go, main plot will be reavealed while exploring the world.
16. Are your Players restricted to particular rulebooks and supplements, or will you be allowing access to non-standard material? What sources can Players use for their characters?
- Anything in d20pfsdr and aonprd is a fair game
- Spheres of Might (but no other spheres)
- Path of War
- Psionics
