"He blew his horn. But no help came. Only more Orcs."- Pippin to Denether, "The War of the Ring" by J.R.R. Tolkien.

"You! I challenge you to a duel! Not you, you! Him! With the orange hat! No not you, your hat is red, isn't it? Him! Yes, you!" -Unpublished Book by Me

This suggestion is about Horns and Gloves of Challenge!

Horns: The Horn of Challenge would be made from a Kine of Araw horn and two iron ingots in a

Iron - - - Horn - - - Iron

pattern on a normal crafting table. Whenever you blow them, a group of 5-11 NPCs, depending on your alignment, will show up. If I had -100 alignment, then 7 might spawn. If I had -500 aligment, 10 might spawn. These numbers are subject to alteration. The NPCs can be a variety of Archers or standard soldiers, or even parties of "elite" troops.

The factors determining which faction NPCs show up are: a) you have negative alignment with that faction and b) said faction has the ability to invade the biome you are. Because of this, no matter how bad my aligment with Mordor may be, no Mordor Orcs would answer my challenge in the Shire.

Gloves: Gloves can be made of Leather in the following patter, on a normal crafting table:

Leather - Leather Leather Leather Leather Leather - Leather

This recipe makes 2 Gloves.

Gloves can be used on certain NPCs by right clicking them while holding the glove. These NPCs are Travelling Duelists.

Travelling Duelists spawn near Taverns, Elvish Halls, Orcish Camps and Mead Halls, depending on their faction.

Gondorian Duelist: Gondor Taverns, Rohan Mead Halls and (rarely) Dalish Bakeries (until Dalish Taverns are implemented.)

Rohirric Duelists: Rohirric Mead Halls, Gondor Taverns.

Dunland Braullers: Dunland Taverns, Gundabad Orc Camps

Wandering Rangers: Ranger Camps, Rivendell and (Uncommon) Lindon Halls, Hobbit Taverns.

Rhudaur Braul-Seekers: Gundabad Orc Camps, Dunland Taverns (Uncommon)

Dalish Duelists: Dalish Bakeries (Until Dalish Taverns), and Gondor Taverns (Rarely)

Gundabad Savages: Gundabad Orc Camps, Dunland Taverns, Rhudaur Villages

Mordor Savages: Mordor Orc Camps, Southron Bazaars, Rhunic Taverns

Isengard Braullers: Isengard Orc Camps, Dunland Taverns and (Rarely) Hobbit Taverns.

Southron Fighters: Mordor Orc Camps, Rhunic Taverns (Rarely)

Rhunic Duelists: Mordor Orc Camps, Southron Bazzars (Rarely)

When you approach one of these Travelling Duelists, assuming they don't attack you anyways (Because of your low alignment with their faction) you can right click them with your Glove of Challenge and they will fight you! Upon killing them, instead of gaining negative alignment with their faction, you will actually gain positive aligment, to show your reputation as a mighty warrior (or savage Orc) gets spread around. However, you will also lose alignment with their directly opposing faction, to show that your prowess strikes fear into the opponent. These alignment gains/losses are subject to Field of Influences.

Gloves of Challenge may also be used on other players, in the same way. Players will be able to view their pending duel requests in a Dueller's Book, crafting on a standard crafting table with a normal book and a single gold nugget.

That's my suggestion for today, ever open to critique. This suggestion will be copied and archived, should Alte require it be split in two, I will be able to do that easily.
