Located in the bowels of the catacombs hidden in a random dead end you will find Myllrin's Workshop. Myllrin is a master of making powerful equipment crafted from dragon hides as well as removing eggings from equipment allowing you to extend the life of your equipment.
To locate the shop you will need to venture down through 5 levels of the catacombs to the bottom level. On this level you will find the workshop.
The riddle
In order to procure the services on Myllrin you will need to answer a riddle. You can only ask for the riddle once in a 24 hour period. If you fail the riddle you will have to try again the following day. If you answer correctly and do not make any equipment you can return within 24 hours without having to reask
If you are making more than one item you will need to answer the riddle multiple times.
Once you have asked for the riddle you have 60 seconds to provide an answer.
"Riddle" - will ask for the riddle
"Riddle <answer>" - will answer the riddle
Unegging Equipment
In order to remove an egging and in rare cases two you must have a supply of dragon hides. When an egging is removed a random amount of dragonhides will be used up in the process.
The more an item has been egged the greater the chances this process will be successful. If an unegging fails the piece of equipment will be destroyed. It is therefore recommended to only unegg when an item is "Black"
Each time you egg an item the following will be added to its appraisal. An item can be egged up to 12 times before it will need to be unegged.
It is surrounded by a bright, green aura. (1-5 eggings)
It is surrounded by a faint, green aura. (6-10 eggings)
It is surrounded by a flickering green aura. (11 eggings)
It is surrounded by a black aura. (12 eggings)
To remove eggings from an item we use the offer command e.g. offer boots
Making Dragonhide Equipment
Once you have successfully answered the riddle you will be able to make dragonhide equipment. Typing MAKE in the workshop will list all available variables.
You can make DH equipment for all location slots, you can wear a maximum of 2 pieces at a time
First you select the slot
make loc body
Next you pick the color hides you will use
make col 1 green, make col 2 blue
You will now specify how many of each color to use
make quant 1 4, make quant 2 4
Adding ruby hide to your equipment will add special abilities or procs depending on the location.
Make special
When done you need to end the process
Make done
You will now be handed your new piece of equipment
The example above will make a 40hp / 40 mana body with a ruby proc which in this case resultsin increased success of hiding.
Dragonhides
Dragonhide equipment can be separated into two groups. Chromatic and Metallic
Equipment can only be created using dragonhides from the same group.
Each color in a group has a different effect.

E.g a light has 6 hides available. Here are some examples to help understand hide distribution.
