Hello all! It's been a while since I made a suggestion, and playing as Dorwinion on a server recently gave me the idea of a possible update for the faction. I decided to write some custom lore to go with it, which is partially based on a server I used to play on. So, without further ado, here it is.
Suggestions:
Structures
Houses: No need to change these. They are fine as is.
Elf Houses: Same as above.
Vintner Guard Camp: Identical to the current camp, except that Captains of Bladorthin do not spawn.
Bladorthin Camp: Identical to the Vintner Guard Camp, only populated exclusively by Order of Bladorthin.
Dorwinion Smithy: No explanation needed. A Dorwinion Smith spawns here.
Dorwinion Town: A collection of houses surrounding a Garden, smithies and Camps can spawn as well.
Dorwinion Watchtower: Similar to the Gondor Turret. Home to a new type of NPC.
NPCs
Dorwinion Smith: Self-explanatory. Forges both Vintner Guard and Order of Bladorthin armor/weapons.
Bladorthin Warrior: A combination of the Warrior of Bladorthin and the Archer of Bladorthin. Switches between weapons depending on circumstances.
Dorwinion Ranger: Spawns in Watchtowers and in the Emyn Winion. Wears Dorwinion Ranger armor and wields Dorwinion Elven equipment.
Vintner Guard Cavalry: A Vintner Guard that rides a horse. Available in both melee and archer form.
Bladorthin Cavalry: Warriors of Bladorthin who ride horses.
Items
Vintner Guard weapons: Consists of a sword, battleaxe, pike, mace, and spear. Vintner Guards now use this instead of iron weapons, though they still use the Iron Crossbow. They are crafted on the Dorwinion Crafting Table with iron ingots.
Sword of Bladorthin: Found rarely in Bladorthin camps, and dropped by Bladorthin Warriors. Textured like Elven weapons, but colored like Dwarven.
Dorwinion Ranger Armor: Crafted with leather on the Dorwinion Crafting Table. Grants 11 protection.
Dorwinion Partisan (?): Essentially a short spear with a weighted butt (the idea is to use it as either short spear or mace), it would be crafted with Iron on the Dorwinion Crafting Table with the Battlestaff recipe and cannot be thrown. (This one is just for fun and needs not be added - I just like the idea too much not to mention it…)
Dorwinion Elven Weapons: Consists of a retextured sword, a longspear, and a battlestaff, plus the existing Spear of Bladorthin. Crafted with Elven Steel in default recipes on the Dorwinion Crafting Table.
Dorwinion Horse Armor: Crafted like all horse armor with Iron Ingots on the Dorwinion Crafting Table
Bladorthin Horse Armor: Crafted with Elven Steel ingots on the Dorwinion Crafting Table.
It's pretty obvious by now that I have no idea how to write suggestions. Either way: le voila, I eagerly await the comments.
Edit: I removed the lore, because some people can't deal with me recycling roleplay characters that they don't even use anymore.
