We're about to jump in the deep end on magical crafting on our mud (so far it's only been mundane items with custom descriptors), and it's looking like it will work off a template system. Eg/ you can create a magical longsword +5 with a frost special, which then picks up from a random set of frost specials and sticks them on the sword. Hoping it'll turn out well, though it's going to have to have a lot of groundwork first.

I *love* the idea on the below with the dying of fabric, no idea why it never occurred to me... in our game you buy "red wool" or "blue silk" from a vendor, and some characters have bemoaned the lack of the color they want... I think imma have to change this to base cloth and a bunch of dyes...
