          He, like most of /tg/, doesn't actually play games and just repeats moronic shit he's heard from other morons who also don't play actual games. This whole topic is either a content farm or OP just wanting to talk about liches.

      Never played any edition of D&D at all, I see. Least of all 5e.

    Real talk, pick a level or tier-of-play, because a lich with access to whatever magic items it wants (rings of three wishes) is probably a multiverse threat or has stopped caring about conquest and just collects things like it's Trayzn from Warhammer40k.

    A lich that ISNT a multiversal threat probably does not have access to infinite magic items.

      Its a level 20 lich with acess to all non legendary magic items. It can pick ten legendary magic items it can use.

        You do realize "level 20" is the tier of play where players are meant to be dealing with multiverse level threats, right?
        Also the tier of play where artifacts are expected to be involved in plot shenanigans on a regular basis.

          Sorry I meant that the lich is 20th level and the pcs are about 9-11th level.

    [...]

    If you want to be specific it is a CR 21 as per the statblock in the monster manual. Except for the fact that it's a 20th level spellcaster as opposed to a 18th level one.

    Liches are ancient and powerful.
    They know magic that has long been lost to ages.

    So just grab from older editions.

            the name is a bit misleading, I want to be true to only the lich and share my body with him only, not his minions
            but if that's not possible I guess I'd settle for trying to get freaky with skeletons?

    Been a while since I've looked at 5e. Do necromancers still have to Gate undead in from the negative energy plane?

    Does 5e even have rules for creating undead creatures that aren't just generic human skeletons?

    As far as I know, the 8th level spell 'Demiplane' creates a pocket dimension that can only be accessed to someone who has been to said dimension or knows the specifics of the spell that created said dimension.

    I will do your prepwork for you now: The lich casts the 8th level spell 'Demiplane'. The lich places his phylactery and a backup spellbook in the Demiplane. The lich exits the demiplane or remains there.

    at least read the fricking book next time you make a thread about something so trivial
