Hi people!
My name is Barneto and i haven`t participated much in the forums yet, but during this last test i had some thoughts related to religions and mythology inside the world of Glitch.
As far as i know, we are all characters living in a world imagined by 11 mighty giants.
And for the moment, we can focus our game-life in a lot of jobs such as miner, chef, farmer... but nothing like a cleric or religion man.
What i am trying to say is that Glitch's world depends largely on 11 different entities with different interests and areas of influence, so i would find extremely logical the imminent development of different religions dedicated to serve and worship the different Giants, the same way as it happened in the ancient Greece with their gods.
In this early alpha stage, our religious behaviour is limited to donate to their shrines, and in some cases we dont even care about the recipient of our donation. I am sure the devs are already working on it, but i think that it could be very interesting if each player could affiliate or link himself to a concrete Giant, as his disciple, believer, prophet, cleric or whatever.
That situation, in game-terms would bring us a lot of team work, as all the followers of certain Giant could work together and against other cults, striving for several goals like the "most favored Giant" ranking, for example.
So, regardless of what devs decide on this mithology subject, i have decided to start my own project, and i would love if some of you want to join me in the just founded "Church of Ti".

It was Bruise 52nd, i had been thinking a lot on becoming a cleric, but still didn`t know much about our Giants.
I was in Groodle Meadow asking myself questions about our existance when suddenly a miracle happened!!!
The Mighty Giant Ti appeared just in front of me and enlightnened me with its charming pressence.
During the brief incarnation, my questions were solved, and i knew i had been chosen to be one of the prophets of Ti, so from that moment on i will dedicate my Glitchian life to serve and follow the Giant Ti, master of knowledge and odds.
So i have already started to donate to Ti, and have managed to get it to the second place in the "most favored Giant" ranking
Ti is the master of odds and knowledge, and it has control over alchemy, refining and bureaucratic skills. It is neither male or female, or both male and female, and also influences other skills like tinkering, better learning, blending etc...
Please feel free to join us in this project if u worship Ti more than any other Giant.
There arent any requisites to join this project besides loving Ti and signing in this forum topic.
For the moment, the main objective is to get Ti to the first place in the ranking, but if you people make this grow, we will have other activities and aims in the future.
Also, Ti informed me that once a "Cleric of Ti" reaches the 5% of total favor donated to Ti he or she can consider himself/herself a legitimate "Prophet of Ti"

PD: Feel free to post whatever you (players and devs) think about this kind of initiatives.
PD2: Its just a kind of "game" inside Glitch, to achieve the same aim as guilds or clans do in other games.
PD3: Sorry about the grammatical mistakes, English isnt my mother tongue, but i hope the message can be understood.
