| Jan 26, 2017 at 20:47 | comment | added | Secespitus | @JasonK The fire is fueled by the magic of the character and burns with 1.500°C. Normally the character can control the flame as he sees fit. But in this question it is used to set the food on fire / melt it / ... Basically as if you would put a bunsen burner under the food. I added the statement about the time-limit because in my last question about these creatures I mentioned a time-limit. It does not apply here because this is supposed to be a relatively short "fight"-scene and not a drawn-out battle of big armies. Therefore the character will not run out of magic energy. | |
| Jan 26, 2017 at 20:36 | comment | added | Jason K | Is the fire using the food as FUEL? Or does the food remain unconsumed by the fire magic (your statement of "no time-limit on how long a single flame can last" is ambiguous)? | |

| Jan 26, 2017 at 7:30 | comment | added | SRM | @kingledion I'm quite confident that the meatloaf in my high school had a significant quantity of petrochemicals, and its density suggests that it wasn't made of anything on the low end of the periodic table, so critical mass was a constant concern. For the sake of profaning that cafeteria "food" substance, I'd allow a story that had 1500 degree meatloaf. :-) | |
| Jan 25, 2017 at 23:41 | comment | added | kingledion | 1500 C is an intensely hot fire, and is not possible with a food projectile. Temperatures of that magnitude are never reached in common household fires, or even in bonfires. They were probably first achieved in massive, heavily insulated, coke-fired blast furnaces. The fuel concentration is simply not high enough for a meat-loaf to burn at those temperatures. | |
