@Speganomad: Many of your ideas look quite complicated, however, I do think that your first idea might actually be feasable.

Currently, the kinds of mini-quests in the LoTR mod are as follows:


 * Kill X number of enemy units


 * Give [Name of NPC] X number of [Item Name]

I do think that the following new type of quest might make sense:


 * Retrieve [Item] from [Type of NPC]

How would this work when you talk to an NPC? Well, I envisage that it would work as follows (I'll use a Gondor Soldier for my example):

''A Mordor Orc has taken my treasured Gondorian Sword! Bring it back to me and I'll make it worth your while.''

To finish this quest, your goal would be to kill a whole bunch of Mordor Orcs (NOT archers). They would have a chance -- perhaps 5-10% -- of dropping Beregond's Gondorian Sword (which would be marked with the NBT tag as follows: "Belonged to: Beregond, the Gondor Soldier").

When you come back to Beregond, and give him his sword, he'd give you cash and alignment.

If you tried to wield Beregond's Sword, a message similar to that seen when entering the Pits could pop up, stating "Maybe you should give this sword to Beregond rather than using it yourself." Breaking the sword would cause you to fail the quest.
