Correct me if I'm wrong Solanumtinkr, but I believe the point you are trying to get across is this:
You (Sola) believe that T2 and T1 godhood is inherently different from the other tiers. Specifically that while the other tiers are separated from each other by raw power, T2 and T1 are separated from the rest and each other by ability which is independent of power.
Now T2 requires the ability to be able to draw from the anima to fuel one's divine power, which the PC is obviously excluded from (we can't have divine power). T1, on the other hand, is defined by the ability to create life from 'nothing.'
So if the PC can create life from 'nothing' without needing to ascend and that's all it takes to be considered a T1 god (just one with the power of a mortal human), then Solanumtinkr is entirely correct that the PC could be a god and not break the game.
That being said, I'm more inclined to follow Sola's latter musings that we'd be considered 'something else' which would mess with the elders' head a bit.
Of course, it may be that the creation of life is not possible without the power the tiers necessitate on the way up, which would validate Sixofone's stance.
In other words, it is possible but probably unlikely.
