In a campaign long ago, in a galaxy far away, I played a dwarf character. In the char's background, given to me by the GM, was the dwarven take on sex. To summarize, it was a great secret, about which your average Mostali knew little. When Mostali were chosen for this task (by unknown criterion), they were sent into a special chamber where they were instructed on the use of their respective mortars and pestles.

This experience was so horrifying, that my char had blocked it from his memory. However, during sleep periods, he would often awake screaming "THE GRINDING!...THE GRINDING!" Here endeth the lesson. =)
