The obvious solution is to sell your soul to whatever higher beings you can find, in exchange for the ability to create and manipulate napalm. Now that I think about it, that's the solution to a whole bunch of other problems as well.

Hawaii will be all good and well, until the underwater zombie hoard gets you.

On the subject of chemical anti-zombie weapons, white phosphorus, sodium, acids would do the job.

Ha, no zombie's going to be able to transverse undersea and come out intact. There's currents to deal with that could rip them apart, not to mention predators attracted to the scent of blood and flesh.

Nonsense. That's what volcanoes are for, after all.

You, uh. You mean, like. Fingers? And your brain? Because we totally create and manipulate napalm now. With like, tools and chemistry and shit. I'm not sure we'd need to sell our soul to continue being able to do so?

Unless you're saying our primordial ancestors cut a deal with Baalzeebub or YWHW whatever for the ability to have their ancestors manufacture a better fire, and our entire civilization is now a souless pyromanic husk?

From nothing. You think something like, "Say, that police car would look better as a burning shell," and BAM! you've got a glob of burning napalm popping into existence in the back seat.

For the ability to create napalm without using ressources that might be limited in the event of undead infestation.

The ability to spontaneously manifest and control napalm (and fire, I suppose). Napalmbending, so to speak.

Bending doesn't manifest anything material though. Although if we're going to bargain for material creation I'd rather go for petrol for instant cash. *ducks*

That raises an interesting question. Could firebenders bend napalm? What about other hot goodies, like nuclear reactions?

Fire = combustion...

So, burning napalm, yes. Nuclear fusion (plasma), no.

But what is, "fire"? Oxidation reactions? In which case, they should be able to rust metal really fast.

Nah, they do lightning too, so there's more going on than just fire.

Lava or nuclear stuff sounds like it'd be cross-bending of some sort, so it might be an avatar only thing, or somehow take different benders working in concert.
