[QUOTE="FireLance, post: 160588, member: 3424"] It's mentioned in the text that Thor has a belt that doubles his Strength. Presumably, this means his base Strength is 46. My take on this is that there are two paths for divine ascension. One is to ascend directly to godhood. This is quicker, but you don't get the outsider HD (e.g. Vecna, Imhotep). The other is to become a petitioner (after dying, presumably) and get promoted up the celestial or fiendish heirarchy. This is longer and more dangerous (a 20+ level mortal still starts out as a 1 HD outsider), but after you're done you get the outsider HD. I think the deity just has to give access to the domain. I've noticed that not all the deity statistics are technically correct according to the rules. Presumably, there should be paragraphs in all of these examples saying something like "Deity X has access to ability Y even though it is normally not possible according to the rules", but they all got cut due to space constraints. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
