The user clasps a small amount of dried herbs in their hands ("normal" use 15 g of tobacco) as they turn to dusty ash with no source of heat.
As this happens, surrounding the target small dark green "shards" of smoke like material appear and will strike at the target, piercing through and where the expectation of smoke- that being burns, is completely warped
the wounds of these shards appear to be a result of extreme cold
These shards are NOT made of smoke, rather they are extremely small tears in the metaphysical barrier between dimensions, which creates the "freeze burn" affect from energy rapidly being sucked away from the space it inhabits.
The requirement for dry herbs is a mental aspect only, the user needs a reason to believe they could do this and a fuel source only makes sense instead of the obvious magical nature.
