Fire
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Fire is a form of combustion. It generally creates heat and can cause burn injuries. Some lamps will use an open flame to provide light similar to candles.
The preindustrial civilization of Barkon IV incorrectly believed that fire was one of the four basic elements of the universe, along with rock, sky and water. By exposing wood to flame, it was believed that the fire in the wood was encouraged to show itself. (TNG: "Thine Own Self")
The dragons of Berengaria VII breath fire. (TOS: "This Side of Paradise")
