I don't know if it can be done but allow players to Customize:

Item Description
Name Colour

At the Mythal forge. It would be great and add a touch of uniqueness to these weapons peoples work hard into crafting or obtaining!

Is it possible or too complex?

Name color, unless I misunderstood the system, actually can be changed at the forge. This is because text color is determided by a few variables written in front of, and behind the colored text. This article goes into detail a bit more, but essentially you have to write <c---> in front of the name, and </c> after it, with each - being the RGB color value in ASCII code. I'm pretty sure it works with familiars, so I don't see why it shouldn't work with the mythal system.

Now, item description, I believe that -could- be changed by a job system scribe, but I believe that carries certain... Problems. Like usually just spamming the commands in chat until you finally roll a high enough number to succeed.

That said, I could be wrong about both.

The scribe only works on crafted items I believe, altering game items requires a DM and a DC charge I think.

While you can set colour like that Robbi, it doesn't transfer using the Mythal Forge. We restrict this to DC requests (which name+description change is just 1 DC)

Huh, alright. Just assumed bth worked. Is there a reason why description and color are locked behind DC requests?

Can cause bugs if implemented via script. It works with familiars and animal companion naming because it's hardcoded.
