This suggestion is about the ability to create your own custom titles using a prefix and suffix.

This is mainly useful to show exactly what your role on a big server is. It also makes for a lot more variety in chat. It could be used by faction leaders who want to have more power by creating a very detailed hierarchy in their faction.

DISCLAIMER

1. Of course it would be possible to use just either a prefix or a suffix.

2. Starter titles do not change, only 'hunter', 'scourge' and 'warrior' are removed from that list.

3. Keep all achievable titles, only 'mariner' is removed from that list.

4. Keep the ability to choose the colour of the title.

5. All waypoints should have a corresponding location title.

6. Remove adjectives in front of faction/species names.

PREFIXES

Starter titles Achievable titles All faction names Species names (Orc, Hobbit, ...) Species nicknames (Wildman, Strawhead, ...) Location names (Mithlond, Erebor, ...) Some more environmental names (Jungle, Mountain, Forest, ...) Northern, Eastern, Southern, Western Colours Special mobs (Balrog, Mallorn Ent)

If you have below 50 alignment points with any faction, you are considered a starter and can only choose from the starter titles. Above 50, most prefixes become available.

Prefixes that you have to unlock:

- Environmental & location names. Available after reaching +100 with the faction that lives in that biome OR travelling to the biome.

- Special mobs, by slaying them.

Faction names are available to everyone with +50 alignment. This way it creates the opportunity for evil players to use the title 'Gondorian Slayer' for example.

SUFFIXES

---

The more alignment you have (with any faction), the more suffixes you unlock.

+100

Species names/nicknames Archer Friend Hunter Killer Militia Recruit Scout Slayer Spawn Spearman Swordsman

+250

Blacksmith Builder Champion Clansman Guard Kinsman Knight Mariner Miner Rider Scourge Trader Warden Warrior Watcher

+500

Chieftain General Hero King Lord Master Ruler Shirriff Warlord

- LAYOUT -

When you hit 'L' and go to the Titles section, there should be 2 buttons (prefix, suffix), the selected title and the colour.

- Click the buttons to view the pre/suffixes available.

- This is where you choose the colour.

- The selected title should update when you choose a different title or choose a colour.

Suffixes would be listed in the same way as I did. However, the list of prefixes is very long. I have a few ideas that could change this matter:

1. Different categories

Splits the titles into different categories, on which you can click to view the title. For example, click Locations to select Hobbiton. The categories would be those stated above (maybe a bit more specific).

2. Periodic table of titles

(This might not be entirely practical, but could be cool). Fill the whole GUI with buttons, colored and in order to view the different categories. Click button to select prefix.

-- EXAMPLE TITLES -- Uruk Swordsman, Red Dwarf, Black Rider, Galadhrim Builder, Forest Warden, High Elf Recruit, Rohan Killer, Northern Dunlending, Caras Galadhon Orc, Balrog Friend

As you can see, the last two combinations are pretty weird. Therefore, certain combinations should be banned from use (I don't know how that would be coded though).

-- YOUR INPUT -

These are just some suffixes that I came up with on the fly. If you can think of more, please let them know (please include required alignment so I know where to put them). Also, If you know a better way to show the list of prefixes please tell.

Anyway, thanks for reading :)
