Tomb of the Lazotep Vizier - Amonkhet Dungeon Crawl

Creating your character

Character creation will take place before the session begins, ensuring everyone is ready to jump into the action from the start. Players will create level 6 characters, which provides a good balance of power and challenge for the dangers lurking in the tomb. Stats will be determined using standard array or point buy, allowing for well-rounded characters while maintaining balance. This one-shot takes place on Amonkhet, so players should refer to the Plane Shift: Amonkhet sourcebook for setting-specific options. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://media.wizards.com/2017/downloads/magic/plane-shift_amonkhet.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiqhpjMmZ6MAxWXXUEAHbjYCEgQFnoECBwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1DurthcdWD18Cq3Pk3BWWh Characters will be created using D&D Beyond, and players should ensure their character sheets are shared with the GM for easy reference. Any official Wizards of the Coast material is allowed, but homebrew content will need to be discussed and approved before the session.
