"The Girdle of Giant strength in B/X D&D (and OD&D) grants you double (based) damage in combat, though no bonus to attack. So, an axe does 2d8 + bonuses. Note that the above hammer only does an additional 1d6 damage. You don't get to double it to 4d6 or 6d6!"

'''That's reasonable. You can't carry any more things* than now because Dayrell isn't any larger. However within reason, he can carry pretty much anything that's small enough to hang about his person while wearing the girdle of giant strength. So, stuff both Bags of Holding in a backpack and Dayrell can carry them around with about the same effort as an average person carries a normal camping backpack. Arm him with lead weapons, no problem. Put him in lead armor, no problem (weight-wise, just don't lick it!).'''
