User blog:HS664/The reason we should kill things with fire

                 I believe it would be for the benefit of the whole wiki that “&killitwithfire” should be an emoticon. I back this statement up with the common use of the term “Kill it with Fire!” in popular culture. The term stems from fire’s unique destructive properties; Fire commonly leaves nothing more than ash when applied to an object. In the legend of Hercules, Fire is the only thing that could make the Hydra’s head stay dead, and not grow back. In Game’s such as Dungeons and Dragons, Fire is one of the two things that can bypass a Troll’s regeneration and deal it Lethal Damage.

In addition to this, Fire itself has been a long standing symbol that the Human Race has portrayed with its long history. Fire has been used for tens of thousands of years for heat and warmth. It is one of the four classical Elements, along with Water, Wind, and Earth. It is one of the Five Classical Chinese Elements, along with Earth, Water, Wood, and Metal.

Fire, or in many cases heat, is associated with not only the above mentions, but with many others things, such as the production of steel (a key ingredient in our daily lives), and Nuclear Fission, a high heat process, known for the immense power it produces. Additionally, Fire is commonly seen in explosions, a fascination that has caught many children over the years.

                 Fire has been used in many mythological works as well. Most notably, Most Western Dragons breathed blasts of Fire. Firebenders were the main antagonists in the Nickelodeon Animation Series “Avater: The Last Airbender”. Characters with power over fire are even quite common here, at the Sonic Fanon Wiki.

                 Fire is not only destructive and helpful, but visibly appealing. With fuel dependant colors, a slow or rapid burn, and the wisps of flame trailing in near unpredictable ways, it is not hard to understand why so many people have a fascination with fire. It is a cornerstone of camping trips. It makes volcanoes worth looking at. It makes Fire…well Fire.

                 Back to the subject of “Killing things with Fire”. As I said before, Fire leaves no remains. Fire is commonly added magically to weapons. There have been Flaming Swords, Flaming Arrows, Flaming Axes. There have even been Flamethrowers, which are based off killing things with fire. Who doesn’t love fire?

 In closing, I firmly believe fire is a proper and effective tool of destruction and death. I hope that in reading this essay, the Chatmods of the Sonic Fanon Wiki take making a &killitwithfire Emoticon into consideration.
