The way I used to roleplay it back in Anthos, when I had an alchemist character, the only reason you'd have alchemist fire is when you *plan* to use it for something. Plan meaning you have IC intent beforehand with OOC acknowledgement beforehand that you're going to use it, not just spawn it out of nowhere and give IC reason to. It's fairly volatile and has only worked as planned about once out of three times for me. The other two times they either blew up in the rolls it took-

-me to actually make the potion, and the other time it blew up in my hand. It should be restricted rather than taken out, I think. I've never laughed harder at RP than I had when the alchemist fire blew up in my hand with a bad roll and I RP'd my character burning to death. It was fun RP.

And he did die, it wasn't a PK because he obviously didn't intend for it to blow up on him. He burned to death because of it :P
