Chords may be built from any combination of notes within a scale, skipping or using consecutive tones. Triads employ the tonic (1st), skip the 2nd to add the 3rd, then skip the 4th to add the 5th. For extended chords, we can add 7ths, 9ths, 11ths, etc.

Each mode contains exactly the same tones as its parent scale, so they will work over any progression built from it.
F# G Ab B C D Eb = F#(b5)sus2
F# G Ab B C D Eb = F#(#5)sus2
F# G Ab B C D Eb = Abm7/F# *
F# G Ab B C D Eb = Abm7b5/F# *
F# G Ab B C D Eb = Ab7/F# *
* "SLASH" CHORDS - see wikipedia for a concise definition - this seems to my thinking to be the simplest way to name some of these unusual chords.
