I've heard that if you melt off a dwarf's fat, then any fire afterwards becomes a non-issue. It's the fat that burns and causes the most damage, so if you can burn the fat selectively, then they'll be more resilient to fire. But not weapons. The fat is a valuable defense against weaker weapons. Thus, you could make dwarves fire-retardant by burning them shortly before-hand.

I tried to come up with something to express how offensive that is to both elves and dwarves, but I couldn't think of a way to do it without mentioning real-world religious figures or genociders, which will inevitably create a flame war, so let's just settle by saying I don't know if that would offend the elves or the dwarves more but they both want to kill you now
Okay, okay. I'll start using Acita as an elf fill-in, following the tradition of Urist (dwarves) and Olith (humans).
Maybe even Ulspa for goblins.
