About the adventure
These dungeons were originally made for older DND which was alot more likely to kill your character. If you are attached to the character or concept I am entirely open to alternatives to death. I trend towards rule of cool and am entirely willing to take things slow and explain the mechanics and anything else anyone may have questions about. I am very much towards high fantasy lots of magic items and magic in general about. I hope to have fun and allow all kinds to have fun as well.

About me
I like to play TTRPGS, am looking for more chances to do so. Have been playing and Hosting or GMing for about 10 years. I'm not particularyily easy to stump and I always love a challenge. I don't play strictly to the rules and am always willing to work around something I or the players see as an issue

Creating your character
You are free to create your character ahead of time, though I always run a session zero. I prefer to roll for stats, best of 3 sets. I have most of my books for dnd 5e through DND beyond so I use that for character creation for the most part. This campagn starts at level 1. I don't have any restrictions beyond that for creating your character everything must be from one ruleset or the other.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I use DNDbeyond for character sheets, Roll20 for maps and Discord for communication. So an account for each somewhat unfortuneatly heh.
What Lyle Kush brings to the table
I do try to make sure it's understood when speaking in character as opposed to speaking as DM. Definitely lean towards rule of cool. have maps for anything that may include interaction. I definitely try to encourage RP and try to keep the game rolling. Lots of table talk and it's not a bad thing so far as I'm concerned.
Homebrew rules
I have a list of homebrew on my discord you may peruse at your leisure.
