Name: Luke Moreno Age: 21 Cause of Death: A cashew ----------- Death has never been so...weird. Luke's afterlife is rather similar to his life. The only thing that's really, truly different is Luke himself. No longer is he that scrawny nerd with an infinity of bad hair days. Luke's an immortal god now, biceps and abs included. He's one of many gods, worshipped by the billions of local humans. Glory, riches and power are at his fingertips. Godhood, though, isn't for Luke. What he really wants is to finish what he started during his lifetime-his university degree. And who's to stop a god from doing what he wishes? The only catch is that no one can know he's a god, because gods can't go around behaving like PEOPLE. And gods certainly can't fall for witty, pretty, non-believer girls named Rays.
