Beard clips are lightly scripted fluff that include verb traps where the user eats fleas and other questionable material. They require that the character have a beard to be worn and used. Notably, several of these messages reference the beard alone, not the item.

Analyze

You analyze your mithril beard clips and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

You get no sense of whether or not the clips may be further lightened.
