How is tobacco prepared for use . . . and please don't use the cop-out line about "RPing the question." I understand that this is a RP intensive game/site/world, but . . . there are limits, y'know
My PC has purchased the herbal bag and has the tobacco press; I even managed some longbottom leaf. But I don't know what to expect as a end result, nor do I as a player know how to operate the equipment. A Player and a PC are 2 entirely different entities, what a PC should know as a matter of fact in a medieval style world of fantasy and adventure, and what I know as a RL person in a Technological world are 2 very different things. Items like the oven, refrigerator, the electric light the bread machine, telephone and the combustion engine would make individual in a medieval world look upon one who uses such things as a powerful wizard or warlock. Like Arthur Clarke said, "the difference (and I am paraphrasing here) between magic and science is technology.
Sorry . . . . RPing is good and all, but for basic questions about game mechanics, to RP it out, a little bit too much I think.
