A [[God Guise]] is a character pretending to be a supremely powerful being, or who is somehow mistaken for one. If the deception is intentional, this is almost always done to influence someone's actions. After all, who but a [[Nay Theist]] would dare to refuse a directive from a god?
The God Guise can be carried out in a variety of ways ranging from good use of a [[Convenient Eclipse]], a fancy costume with special effects, to an impressive display of [[Sufficiently Advanced Technology]]. Less gullible victims might issue a [[God Test]] to challenge the pretender's claim to divinity.
