still... It doesn't feel right with my character. He's more the cowboy-type minus the hat... with lack of a better example.
Cowboy type? This is the wrong game to be shoot'n dem Ingins and rangle'n them cattle...
Before LOTR... pipes wouldn't even fit into Tamriel honestly... but everyone has this image that cigarettes and cigars wouldn't fit. I bet if Tolkien added these into his books, everyone would be fine with them. Alas, he didn't, so they just won't fit.
Even though it would make more sense to just wrap crumbled tobacco leaves in paper and light one end, and could easily be accomplished by those skooma-drinkers in Tamriel, a pipe just fits the atmosphere better imo.
