This is (hopefully) a simple suggestion about adding a new style of shield. I know that lots of people have asked about functional shields, but I am not asking about that. These types of shields would be craftable, and serve no purpose other than décor.

These shields should be crafted on the respective faction crafting table, with certain changes to make things like the fiefdoms, like with banners. (I don’t know the recipes, but it doesn’t really matter for the purposes of this suggestion, as far as I can tell.) When held in your hand, they should (maybe) look like the alignment shields, even though the item texture would be smaller. When placed in a weapon rack, it would display like the alignment shields, and would cover the rack.

If this makes alignment shields have no point anymore, you could instead just make a placeable “shield rack”, that remembers who placed it, and always shows their shield.

Nothing is set in stone, but I think something should be done to allow shields to be used for decoration.

Criticisms and suggestions welcome!
