Need help integrating EasyBlog with RokStories.

Hi. I am working on modifying RokStories (it's legacy) to work with EasyBlog. I'm not a total newb with PHP, however I don't fully understand Joomla's software structure.

I've currently modified the rockstories module to include an option to switch to EasyBlog and retrieve EasyBlog posts. I've also modified the RokStories module to correctly link to the blog post, and retrieve the image included in the intro text. So that part is completed.

I've duplicated the rokmodulecheck.php file and renamed it easyblogcheck.php with modifications, allowing RokStories to run a check for EasyBlog. I am however stumped with the mod_rokstories.xml file that is used to build the JFormField view.

I would like some help with the JFormField view so my modification can check for EasyBlog, and then give me the a list of options to choose from Bloggers, Categories, or Latest. From there I would like the JFormField view to provide a list of options based on the previous choice, ie a list of bloggers, a list of categories, or no list when latest is chosen.

As I've stated before, I am 'comfortable' with PHP ... I just need help with Joomla's structure. Can anyone help me with this issue? Also, I am running this on a localhost currently. I don't have a live site running right now.
