Dunlending

Dunlendings are the inhabitants of Dunland. They are a race of strong and sometimes brutal men who live in simple wooden shacks and carry various tools used for farming, fishing, or hunting, the basic elements of their lifestyle.

The Dunlendings have a bitter, ancient feud with the people of Rohan. The Dunlendings' ancestral homeland, Calenardhon, originally a province of Gondor, was gifted to the Rohirrim and became the land of Rohan. As a result of this the Dunlendings were driven out and into the neighbouring hills. Centuries later they still dream of revenge on the Rohirrim - or as they call them, the 'Strawheads' - and hope to reclaim what they believe to be their rightful homeland... and await the warlord who can lead them to victory.

There are other types of Dunlendings, such as the warriors and archers equipped with stronger weapons and Dunlending armor, as well as the bartenders in their taverns who sell food, drink, and ingredients from friends of Dunland. Dunlendings can be hired from Dunlending warlords.

Behavior
Dunlendings, like most mobs, will attack any enemies that come nearby and will also attack if provoked. They will sooner attack one of the Rohirrim than any other good-aligned mob.

Spawning
Dunlendings spawn throughout the Dunland biome regardless of light levels. For a Dunlending to spawn the block below must be a grass block. As such, they do not spawn underground.

Weapons (if held)
The Dunlendings are a crude folk and tend to wield "cavemen-like" weapons.

Drops
Dunlendings can drop bones and a variety of other items. They also have a chance to drop the weapon or tool they are carrying. Some of their rarer drops are listed below: Because of their drops, the Dunlendings are a great way to get arrows without the trouble of killing chickens and digging through gravel to find flint. They are also a great way to get Rohan alignment, because they don't use ranged weapons and can be killed in three hits with an Elven or diamond sword.
