Delicate, making fellow complain (5)
I believe the answer is:
frail
'delicate' is the definition.
(I know that delicate can be written as frail)
'fellow complain' is the wordplay.
'fellow' becomes 'f' (abbreviation - of a society etc.).
'complain' becomes 'rail' (railing is a kind of complaining).
'f'+'rail'='FRAIL'
'making' is the link.
(Other definitions for frail that I've seen before include "Basket made of rushes" , "Puny" , "Slight" , "Struggling to get about" , "Physically feeble" .)
