I must apologize for my previous suggestion, for it was not very well thought out in many ways and must therefore be recogciled by this suggestion. At the very least I hope this one will seem more aptly tuned towards the mod than the last suggestion, and I most urgently hope that you will forgive me for my past blunder. I must thank Zombielizard in part for his comment on Mayors' Desks, which helped to form what is now this post. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy reading this suggestion. -Prof_Grimm

                                               THE BOWELS OF THE MOUNTAINS



As I recal, it was on the first of Winterfilth when a strappling young dwarf came to me for help. He told me a tale his father told him, a story of terror and of malice when the Orcs of the Mountains came down upon an ancient mountain home. The dwarfs fled, yet they were overtaken and killed. Now all that is left is a narrow stairwell leading to their ancient tomb. I was to bring to him the head of the Orc who had killed his grandfather, and in return he would grant me a sizable treasure and fame among his people. I accepted, and here I am now, with a head in a bag and at the mouth of an ancinet tomb. It was challenging, but was doable, to go deep into that foul dark dungeon and slay the orc of legend. To be fair, he was tought, but not tougher than ten arrows. Ha ha! Soon I left with the trophy, and now I make way for the young dwarf. The road to Erebor is long, yet soon I will have a great treasure in my hands.

                                                        A FORTUNE AND A DESK

No sooner had I arrived at Erebor had I began to hear from the people of Dale that I had become a hero around these parts. Apparently my slaying of the orcs of the Mountains and the ruins of Dol Guldor forts that I had left in my wake had made me some sort of legend. After recieving my fortune from the young dwarf I made my way to meet a Dalish Captain who controlled a sizable territory. On meeting him he gave to me a desk that his forefathers had used to govern Dale before him in exchange for the fortune I had earned. Due to my drunken suppor I accepted, and I left with no money and a desk. The following morning I awoke and realized I had nothing but a peice of furniture! I placed iy on the ground, and laid against it to collet my thoughts. My eyes drifted towards the papers on the desk, and soon I realized that not only had I bought a desk, I had bought land deeds and a town too! Out of the surrounds I contructed a small shack and there I pronounced to the world I had created the town of Datlof! Other than a small blip on a map it meaned nothing, but to me it meaned everything. Now eveerything within 200 meters was my domain. I flew the flag of Dale, and offered many to join my town.

                                                                 Other Notes:

In short, new dungeons made solely for the purposes of Minor quests could be created, each with a boss or cheifton that when killed drops their head. Mayors' Desks, when placed, place on the map a waypoint and a small visual area of protection. In the Town Hall menu the town can be named, and players can be inbited to the town as well. Mayors' Desks can be obtained from Captains / Cheiftons for all factions, with Evil factions having their own desk.In order for a town to be recogized a Mayors' Desk must be placed on a 5*5 cobble platform, with the desk in the middle. The prupose of the desk is to allow visual representations of player settlements on a map and to also allow large factions on servers to more easily control bases and players who can enter them.
