Blue Mountains Merchant

A Blue Mountains merchant is a type of Dwarf from the Blue Mountains biome. They are travelling traders just like the Galadhrim traders, and will trade with any player who does not have a negative Blue Mountains alignment.

When attacked, the merchant will defend himself with a Blue Dwarven dagger. When killed, the merchant may drop Dwarf bones, food, Dwarf bones, plates, or mugs.

Upon trading with a Blue Mountains merchant, the player gains the achievement "Wealth from Abroad".

Behavior
Blue Mountains merchants are similar to Galadhrim traders in that they will spawn in various biomes across Middle-Earth, with the exception of their homeland (Blue Mountains), evil infested biomes (i.e. Mordor), and desolated biomes (i.e. Dagorlad). They will only stay for a day however, so players should make finding them a top priority when they arrive, especially since encountering one of these merchants is even rarer than encountering Galadhrim traders.

A message will appear in the chat to signal the merchant's arrival as well as the merchant's leaving. There will also be a warning message one minute prior to when the merchant leaves, and a death message signifying that the merchant was killed.

Trading
Blue Mountains merchants offer all sorts of food, Dwarven ale, Blue Dwarven armor and equipment, and even Dwarfwort.The armor and equipment have a chance of being enchanted as well. They will buy from players food, ingots, and coal. Below is an example of a Blue Mountains merchant's trading panel.
