Determine the status of the deity (ie. Greater, Intermediate, Lesser; Demi; Quasi or Hero).For (tight) Pantheons I usually advocate 20 total deities of Demigod status or above (all others will be Quasi or Hero-deities). Typically 1 Greater Deity; 9 Intermediate Deities (one of each alignment); 6 Lesser Deities and 3 Demigods...this leaves room for a PC to ascend without displacing an existing Demigod.2. Determine the HD/Levels of the deity.Quasi-deity 20-29 HD/LevelsDemigod 30-39 HD/LevelsLesser God 40-59 HD/LevelsIntermediate God 60-79 HD/LevelsGreater God 80-119 HD/Levels**Note that this differs somewhat from the measure of power in Deities & Demigods itself, notably the Greater Gods.3. Determine the character as normal (using epic rules)4. Apply the appropriate Divine Abilities and modify the ability scores as follows:+5 Inherant Bonus to EACH ability score+60 Divine Bonus TOTAL to ability scores (assigned as you see fit; typically +10 per ability score - but it doesn't have to be)5. Determine wealth; personal equipment; artifacts; servants; realm etc. But no point going into that now. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
