I'm now adding the extra functionality to material specifications that will allow things to melt, catch on fire, and so on...  in fact, you'll be able to define "reactions" that make two individual materials, or materials from different "material classes", combine to form new materials.  Fire in this case is treated as a material in the "energy" state (as opposed to solid/liquid/case)...  fire will react with combustible materials to make ash or whatever.  Water too?  Or was it CO2?  My chemistry is mega-rusty.  Anyway, it will take a while...  and that time might well be painful...

Although I'm assuming no one will shoot fireballs at the rabbits.  Or they will have to be given special powers to exact revenge...

but, the rabbits might be very cold and since there isn't any clothing I have to warm them up somehow, magic is the only way. So we have three choices:

1. Do nothing. the rabbit remains cold and become irritable, and lashes out at anything that is a different species then it(obviously not attacking the same species, as they know that all member of their species are cold)

2. Employ the old methods of Armok. this would mean stabbing the rabbit very quickly so that the friction of the blade cutting into and out of tha rabbit can be used to heat it up. This is inconcievable as the speed is simply too great. also, it tends to kill the rabbit, making it more cold

3. Employ the new methods of Armok. fire is warm, magic can make fire and project it in the direction of the recipient, rabbit heats up and is happy, in return he gives me candy

the result of method 3 is all speculation right now as it cannot yet be tested, I could show you the mathematical proof that results in my getting candy, but it is very long, and boring, and complicated, and way over your head, so I won't burden you with the details of my studies

I should have an objective test of (3) performed in a few days.  I'll publish my findings at that time.  If you're right, I'll name the result after you.
