What Would Fegall Do ? Belt Clasps

Today, on WWFD, we shall Have a Look at the Clasp of the Belt. For most Non-Makers, 'tis not a Cherished Making - yet, 'tis without a Doubt the most Useful of Makings. How so ? Why ... if the Clasp of the Belt is Badly-Made, what would Befall the Warrior when he Pulls at his Sword-Hilt, only to Find that it does Lie Prone many Meters at his Back ? 'twas the Badly Made Clasp that did Lead to his Eventual Downfall. Ah, and what of Mages ? If the Embrace of the Clasp does Suffer, the Mage can but Pluck at her own Hair for Arcane Components!

What would Fegall do, Fine Makers ? 'tis this Maker's Feeling that he would do as Such:

  1. Determine the Need for the Clasp. 'tis an Arcanist? A Warrior ? A Scoundrel or a Sorceress?
  2. Determine the Need for Clasping. What must be Clasped ? A Potion, Component Pouch ? A Double-Headed Axe ? Perhaps the Shrunken Head of a Slain Foe (in that case of your Customer being a Blood-Thirsty Bugbear) ? 'tis the Wise Maker that does Plan his Makings as Such... !
  3. Determine the Environment in Which this Clasp will be Made Use of. Damp Caves do Suggest the Use of Adamantium - the Stifling Heat of the Deepest Deeps of Deglos might Suggest the Use of a Clasp made from Ice Crystals !
  4. Finally - what of the Belt itself ? Well... 'tis Beyond this Sermon to Wax Lyrical on the Humble Belt. If the Guild of Clasp Makers will Accept your Clasp of Astounding Usefulness, then you may Know that you are a Fine Maker. For 'tis Known that the Clasp of the Belt is a most Difficult and Challenging Making to Fashion with Success.

May your Nose be Clean and your Hands Full, blessed by the Wit of the Gnomefather,

Maker Gurky.
