What things in the raws can have a set base temperature? I remember hearing about things like flaming crossbow bolts and arrows, but they would lead to spontaneously combusting marksmen.

I want farmable plants with a really high temperature. I'd put a plot around my fortress by the entrance. It'd be a small plot so it wouldn't need to a planter's attention after they've grown and are dangerous. I'd forbid them in my food stockpiles. Lastly, I'd have a dump of booze barrels on a retractable bridge above. You can see where this is going.

I dont think plants temp raws can be changed. Just stone and metal, neither of which should useful for your project.

The tag you're looking for is [FIXED_TEMP:n], by the way. Unfortunately, it only appears to work with minerals, metal, creatures, and pretty much anything that comes off of a creature. You might be able to do something with those last two.

Some standard temperature values, by the way:

9508 - absolute 0 degrees Kelvin. Feel free to go lower than that.
10000 - Freezing point of water.
10070 - Somewhere around room temperature.
10800 - Temperature of Fire Men.
12500 - Approximate temperature of magma.
25000 - Hottest temperature value mentioned in the vanilla game (excluding boiling points). HFS melts at this temperature; whether that's a verb or a property depends on which HFS you're talking about.
60000 - A little higher than this, temperature tags stop working correctly due to number restrictions, so this should be your absolute maximum.

I don't know if it's all accurate or not, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be.
