How will character creation work

Character creation will be handled at session zero in a private discord server. All races, classes, and subclasses are permitted as long as they are published WOTC material. I am open to homebrew, as long as it makes sense mechanically/aesthetically to the setting. Characters will start at Level 4 and will start together as a party. Potential tie-ins will be discussed at session zero! WE might start in a tavern or we might just start into the thick of it. This varies depending on the chemistry of the table!
