According to the docs, mysql doesn't support comments on databases. Can you confirm this is mysql, or are you using something else, like mariadb?

The problem is on the character set section, @WittierDinosaur.
I can reproduce the issue with this snippet:

CREATE TABLE Plan ( Id INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
                            Name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
                            PRIMARY KEY(Id)
) DEFAULT CHARACTER SET `utf8mb4` COLLATE `utf8mb4_general_ci`;

• The dialect I have set is mysql.
• Without the backticks it also fails.
