So... a little idea concerning an itemtag, or rather an idea that will be small on paper, but possibly rather large in use, and probably rather large in code.

Essentially I think that there should be an itemtag that is something along the lines of its faction. This would solve many problems concerning gear problems with "lore roles". Using this you would then be able to have sorcerer/giant roles for every faction, for example, for saruman you could have a gandalf's staff with faction set to isengard, and renamed saruman's staff. texture may be a little weird, but I'm sure that we can deal with it. Also if someone wanted to become treebeard on a server with lore roles they could get a mace of sauron renamed in a fashion to show it is treebeard's arm or some such thing, with faction set to fangorn. Additionally this would be nice for being able to repair normal items. Such as if a role's weapon is that of another they slew in battle they could then be able to have an item that reflects that, and that they can have repaired.

Just an idea for those who want to get a little more rp in without actually going into rp. I expect that this could grow beyond that in time, possibly making it so the example of using a fallen foe's weapon become a reality in the mod without needing an admin to change its faction to make it repairable for you (you could of course convince someone to give you the forge of the necissary faction, but it tends to be quite a bit cheaper to just use coin)

Anyway, thanks for listening, constructive critisism/feedback welcome, sorry for being away for... wow, probably a little over a month. I'll try to sift through all of the other new suggestions tomorrow.
