Public Travel
Mounted
- Horse colors from Stable Masters should be random.
Dwarf Caravans and Elf Companies
"The Wandering Companies shall know of your journey, and those that have power for good shall be on the watch. I name you Elf-friend; and may the stars shine upon the end of your road!"
Gildor Inglorion, Chapter 3: Three is Company
"There were, however, dwarves on the road in unusual numbers. The ancient East-West Road ran through to its end at the Grey Havens, and dwarves had always used it on their way to their mines in the Blue Mountains."

- The Caravan will act as a moving Stable Master.
- Selecting one of the Caravan's NPCs will bring up a Swift Travel menu.

- To use the Caravan you must have first visited the destination and have Swift Travel rations in your inventory.
- Caravans will be useful for those without horses traveling between settlements who happen upon them.
- The Caravan appears as a moving icon on your mini-map, so they are never in the same place at all times.
- The Caravan can be attacked by roaving Orcs and Goblins, delaying its movement, but not for long.
- Future routes will open up between Rivendell and Erebor, Bree and Tharbad, and Tharbad and Edoras.
