James McMurray said:Maybe he wasn't created at rank 0, level 1 and then advanced. Maybe he was created via seperate processes at each of his incarnations, in order to make him a good adversary or ally for characters of that power level?
Okay that makes som sense.
Okay the book also talk about character becoming gods. Not lets say a DM would progress his players into godhood. I you read Imhotep, who is an ascended human. His Abilities have increased to the mentioned ability rule. Yet the book mentions nothing about what happens to a character who ascends. So they should continue with their normal ability scores. So Basicly an ascended human would never be able to get to the same ability scores as an original god at the same power level. Since the only mentioned way of gaining ability increaseses is by Character levels.
