Rivendell Smith

The Rivendell Smith is a trader found in the smithies of Rivendell.

Behaviour
Similarly to most trading NPCs, Lindon smiths will mind their own business and will not attack the player unless provoked, regardless of alignment. If they are provoked, however, they will defend themselves using a sword.

Trading
Once your alignment is 100 or higher with the High Elves, the smith will consider trading with you. They sell the the equipment and armour of Rivendell and will buy Mithril nuggets, string, lava buckets, various ores, sticks and coal; the more valuable the material, the more they'll pay you for it.
