How "established" will we be at the start of the game? Will we need to build our nations from scratch? Is the world itself practically newborn?

You've been ruling over the lesser beings for hundreds of years. We will all know each other, or at least know [i]of[/i] each other as well, so there will be a point after the OOC thread gets started in which we will discuss allies and treaties and wars and such, to flesh out the history of the world together.

Although at this point I would suspect more free-form.

Free-form, yeah. Apologies for not adding that sooner. 

Also, I know it's tempting to claim a race in the interest-check, but:

1) You frankly don't know enough about the world yet.

And 2) Claiming a race or idea for your God will be pointless, because this will not be first come, first served. If somebody makes a CS for a God that's similar to yours, but better, or more well put together, I'll be picking theirs. Just keep that in mind.

EDIT: Beginning the OOC now.
