Fire.
Recently in Beijing, a 17 year old boy had a fight with a classmate and lost. A few days later, he decided to retaliate against the classmate and did so by dumping a bottle of gasoline on him and setting him aflame. The victim ended up with 55% of his body covered in burns. When asked about why he did it, the boy said that he had transformed into a Fire Mage from World of Warcraft in order to get the job done.
I read this on a Website...-_- I'm so disappointed in humanity.

Reminds of someone who tried to use Naruto Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and Genjutsu on someone in a fight...
Well, that's terrible. Hopefully, this doesn't happen again.
