Our protagonist is a hillbilly from West Virginia that finds himself in the middle of a summoning between some Necromancers (heavily based and inspired on D&D5e) and a Great Old One. Hijinks ensue. He's genre-savvy about D&D but ignorant about the Xianxia/cultivation world he ends up falling into.
You can consider this a somewhat non-traditional Xianxia story, where the MC's "special advantage" that often exists (golden finger in the tropes of the genre) is being a patient low-level Wizard from a D&D campaign. Can our MC cultivate the dao while trying not to go insane due to contact with Great Old One? Can they combine magic and "this newfangled Qi business"? We'll see!
The magic is only heavily based on D&D, some of the rules I have adjusted for narrative reasons.
May be updated irregularly. Writing this due to writer's block on my main story.
