That said, 'promethium' can also refer to things like liquid hydrogen, coal, and many other fossil fuels or equivalents. The most common type, at least on the tabletop, is the flamethrower fuel, which is functionally identical to what we could call napalm- a jellied flammable chemical that can burn in most atmospheres and sticks to things.
