[@WrongEndoftheRainbow] as there appears to have been some confusion, I have spoken with my GMs and we've all clarified that Lazarus is in fact a demigod rather than a god. It is a long established rule in Divinus that gods can only come about in two ways:

1) They are summoned forth at the very beginning by Fate and a Friend.
2) They come about as a result of a lower being ascending to godhood.

Lazarus will just have to chug his way up through demigodhood until he eventually manages to become a god by consuming some divine essence from an active god
