here you go bud didnt feel like typing much more, but taken from a help file

************************* Section 8 ******************************************
How to add new Deities
********************************************************************************
The first thing you need to do is create the deity file. This is done using
the makedeity command. So for example if you wanted a deity called Shaddai:
makedeity Shaddai
This creates the file and sets up some defaults and writes it to the list of
deities to load during bootup.

Then you use setdeity to setup the deity the way you would like it.

*filename -- This will change the filename of the deity file and will also
update the list of deities to loadup at bootup. To change a deity
file for the deity Shaddai you would use:
setdeity shaddai filename Shaddai.dty

*name -- This will change the name of the deity that everyone uses to devote
too, etc... For example to change the deity Shaddai to Nivek you
would use:
setdeity shaddai name Nivek

*description -- This is the Description that is given when a mortal uses the
deities <deity name> command. It can be changed by using the command
setdeity shaddai description
This will drop you into an editor and then you can work on it just like
you would a note or a room description.

*alignment -- This is the alignment of the deity, it affects several things,
first if a mortal supplicates a avatar, then the avatar is the same
alignment as the deity. Also if your alignment is too far off what
your deities is, then you will start lossing favor. To set a neutral
deity for example would be:
setdeity shaddai alignment 0

*worshippers -- This is how many people currently worship (are devoted) to the
deity. This number really doesn't need to be changed.

*npcfoe -- This is the # of the race that the deity "dislikes" so you get more
favour of killing a mob of this race. For example to set this deities
npcfoe to coder which lets say is race #4, you could do either:
setdeity shaddai npcfoe 4 OR
setdeity shaddai npcfoe coder

*susceptnum -- This sets the amount of favour needed otherwise, you get
set to any suscepts the deity has. For example if it was set to
500 and your favour was 400, you would be susceptible to whatever
this deities suscepts are.
setdeity shaddai susceptnum 500

*race -- If this is set then this deity only accepts worshippers of a certain
race. This too can be set by the name of the race or by the number.
So for example if you wanted the deity so only humans can devote to
it you would do:
setdeity shaddai race human
To clear this value set it to -1, like this:
setdeity shaddai race -1

*race2 -- If this is set 2 races can devote to this deity, but it will only be
checked if race is set as well. So if you wanted Shaddai deity to
have worshippers of humans AND dwarfs, you would do this:
setdeity shaddai race2 dwarf
Just like above to clear this flag set it to -1.

*npcrace -- This is similar to npcfoe, but you get a little less favour from
killing these than a npcfoe.
setdeity shaddai npcrace human

*class
*element
*sex
*affected
*suscept
*elementnum
*affectednum
*flee
*flee_npcrace
*kill
*kill_npcrace
*kill_magic
*die
*die_npcrace
*dig_corpse
*bury_corpse
*spell_aid
*steal
*backstab
*aid
*aid_spell
*sac
*kill_npcfoe
*die_npcfoe
*flee_npcfoe
*scorpse
*savatar
*sdeityobj
*srecall
*objstat

Also..........say i put Warrior in as the class - then all warriors can worship that deity?

what about race........i dont want race restrictions. i want all races to be able to worship anyone (unless thier class restricts this).

thanks
