Apotheosis

Elevation of a Player's Spirit to immortal status.

Apotheosis in FaerieMUD happens as the result of the development of one or more of the Spirit's three immortal statistics to a level above Incorporative. It marks the transition of the player to the Elder Game, though the player may not immediately realize this.

A character that has experienced Apotheosis becomes one of the aspects of immortality, depending on which constituents of her Spirit have so developed.

Also, theophany? -- An appearance of a god to a person.
