+# tridentwar
+Tridentwar is a minigame inspired by friends.
+## History
+The development of this plugin originated on a server, a friend of mine hosted, where we played around with all sorts of items.
+I later took the idea and started designing a plugin all around it.
+
+## Supported version
+I am using the most recent stable Minecraft spigot versions and cannot guarantee downwards compatibility.
+
+## License
+You are free to use this plugin on your server but, you have to mention me as the author and have to keep credit notices I placed inside the plugin.
+
+## Current Roadmap
+Because this plugin currently is in its early development phase I will update this to more interesting features down the road  
+my main goal, for now, is to get a stable plugin to host on servers without issues.
