Gods are born and empowered by a number of things. Some transcend time and have existed for all of eternity, whereas others are born from the collective will and desires of sentient life. It's not until large numbers of people come to believe in the idea of a divine that one will slowly begin to take form, albeit without any power, divinity or consciousness. It's not until enough sentient beings pray to said divine that it will begin to accumulate power and a sense of purpose. The act of praying to a divine carries a large sum of magical energy, or mana, that empowers the divine being prayed to. The more prayers a divine receives, the more complete and powerful they become. Once they've gained enough power from prayers to fully manifest, however, they are also able to accumulate far greater power for each devout soul that ends up in their domain.
Note: Even if all of the prerequisites are met for the creation of a new divine, it will still require the approval of an administrator or owner before it becomes official. This is to prevent the creation "troll" divines who either don't fit in with the lore or don't make sense. It's also to ensure that too many divines aren't created so a reasonable amount may be maintained.
