09-21-06, 06:19 PM Dragon Ascendant in the Draconomicon. As the name suggests, it only works for dragons. And epic-level ones at that.

09-22-06, 01:50 AM While there isn't one, Quasi-Deity (DvR0) is apparently only a +6 LA. Given this is twice Dragon Disciple, but Dragon Disciple is decidedly underwhelming, I could see a 10-15 level PrC allowing for ascending to Quasi-Deity status.

09-22-06, 05:45 AM Alternatively, read through Deities & Demigods. Apparently, to be a demigod (Divine ranks 1-5) you need from several hundred to several thousand worshippers. So, to get a single divine rank, persuade 300+ (500 to be on the safe side) gullible people that you are indeed worthy of worship. Get them together, worshipping you devoutly, and you should ascend to demigodhood.
IIRC, it takes a DC 50 Diplomacy check to get someone to fanatically follow you, so that should do the trick. Just boost diplomacy nice and high (far too easy to do) and then persuade hundreds of people. Enjoy.
Tip: Take Marshal (double charisma bonus on charisma skills) and Exemplar (Take 10 on specialised skills i.e. diplomacy)

(Not that many people follow the rules in that Deitities & Demigods, but this little entry does explain the huge numbers of gods out there)

Necessary but not sufficient. You also need access to the divine spark, however that is achieved in the campaign.

And if you're not at least level 10, you probably won't last very long. :)
