Multipartite entangled states are key for many quantum information protocols. Generation of these states and their protection against various noise sources is quintessential for successful quantum computing and sensing applications. Here we discuss the generation and minimally invasive characterization of multipartite entangled nuclear spin states coupled to a single Nitrogen-Vacancy center (NV) in diamond. At low temperatures, resonant optical excitation of the NV becomes possible allowing for high fidelity projective spin readout and spin initialization. In combination with spin-lifetimes many orders of magnitude higher compared to ambient conditions, generation of multipartite entangled states becomes plausible by optical methods possibly assisted by microwave fields. We present a scheme and evaluate the fidelities involved in optimal generation and measurement of five qubit entangled states for realistic parameters.
