Thrusting his right arm at Yurf "Wood Release: Cutting Technique GWP"
((I'll somehow gone from Harry Potter to Yamato.))
"Huh. Dat's bad."
>Take cover behind the huge block of wood! Run around it in a circle as necessary to avoid my attacker.
>Test if I have any movement in my dessicated right hand. If so, pick up the cleaver with that hand if I encounter it.
>If I stumble upon the normal sword, pick it up with my good hand.
>Mainly, just keep an eye and ear out for the guy after me, and keep the block of wood between us. Pick up weapons if I come across them. Once I'm armed I can defend myself.
(You have no movement in that hand)
[YURF dex:4-1 (On back)]
[Adam dex:5]

[Yurf dex:1]
Yurf crawls for the sword while Adam shouts the same word at him. A small chunk of wood encloses Yurf's foot like the he's been assaulted by a mad clog maker. He looks back at his imprisoned foot, raises and eyebrow and proceeds to continue toward the sword.
"Well, that was unexpected... But at least rubber is a flexable material. Maybe I can move this hand around still."
See how much I can move my rubber hand. If nobody tries to hurt me, then do Magic Phrase. If someone does attack me, then zap them with my GWP.
Your rubber hand doesn't move an inch despite your best efforts. Oh well. You aren't currently under attack so time to try another word.
((I'm supposed to be taking an engineering test now on the computer. But nope, RTD trumps school))

The air in front of you crackles with live electricity that quickly condenses into thin rod or staff, 5 foot long and 2 or so inches thick, that falls to the ground. It lays there, crackling violently with a seemingly endless supply of power.
Alga glanced briefly around at the firing platform she'd found herself on. That wasn't good.
Noticing Sanya nearby, she scurried over to her.
"Wanna team up?" she asked quietly, staring at her intently in case the answer was no.
Scurry to western staircase. Speak Word at nearby wall, or at Sanya if attacked by her.
You get the heck off that central platform and over to the staircase, joining Sanya before speaking your magic word toward the wall
[pot:1+2]
A thin stream of molten stone pours out of thin air. It's odd because it doesn't seem to move like normal molten stone; it's much more fluid and less viscous then you would expect. It cools and hardens just the same though.
Well, that was.... Effective. Time for an open test. Point at the same wall, and yell Trialo Shareem! Focus on summoning a spike of metal. Afterwards, keep going up the stairs to escape the fighting.
(That's how stairs work right? They all seem to occupy the same space, so I assume they're df style up/down stairs, If they don't work that way, I'll use a different stairway.) As a side note, I can't believe I considered picking that cleaver up. Here's the spell that made it anyway. The format might be important. Kelio Shareem Shareem Garstorpit Garstorpit I think I used 1 too many shareems honestly. I was actually trying to create a death golem for those wondering what my intentions were, so I figured more metal would help.
Misc Thoughts: Some words are modifiers, and as such have little to no effect when cast alone. I'll look into what pages the spells that did nothing were on, but it's not a big enough clue at this point to determine how that works given how few words we know. Make sure to use two spells at once if you're doing science and can spare the pool.
(I'm assuming by "Shareem" this means "Shareeb".

A piece of steel roughly the size of a billiard ball falls to the ground behind you.
I had an inkling that spell would do that instead of what I originally thought it would do. Oh well- I still learned something useful!
+1 Potency
Oh crap, that wasn't... ohhh, I get it now! Leaves me not where I thought I was, though. Need more data, but hide now!
Cower and hide. If anyone approaches me, run like hell the other way.
Also, Piecewise: Is there a spell combination that could potentially kill everyone at once, given how spread out we are right now?
I can't really tell you, but what do you think?
I'm going with hell yes we can scorched earth this place- especially once people start doing silly things like getting adjusted rolls of 8+ on potency.
How badly damaged is the central platform?
(central platform isn't too badly damaged, but you chipped a good sized piece of it's edge off.)
You scramble behind a rock and cover your head, waiting for retribution to rain down on you, yet nothing comes.
"Karma is bullshit" You mutter to yourself, hoping very much that you are correct.
"Friends are good to have. So far I'm just sciencing around with Lepus so don't aim at him, please. I'll share what I know with you, if you want."
Sanya points out some of the notes in her book before pointing out a trio of words.
Execute Plan B, while imagining a long, completely-metal, lustrous spear.
"Lets hope this works right. If it does... I can be a pretty good weaponsmith. Or, weapon-spawner. I don't know.
[pot:2]
You speak your words and a moment later what appears to be a metallic tooth pick drops to the ground a few feet away. You pick it up and the drop in and recoil as it gives you a nasty static shock.
You sit on the stairs and suck on a stinging finger, severely disappointed.
"Hell. Yes.
Master of Wind, Water, Fire, and Earth....
The Avatar.
Totally worth all that science."
Rest to regenerate lost point of pool, keep Word in mind in case of wild axe-murderer attack.
((This game is becoming much more fun. A feat I thought impossible, until someone figured out how to fire obsidian cannonballs.))
You lay back against the stone and rest, idly flipping through the pages of the book, glad that, for the most part, people seem to have been completely leaving you alone. Seems like most people are leaving each other alone actually, now that you peak out and see.
"Heh, maybe we'll eventually all just sit down and practice peaceful magic together or at least organize this down to one on one battles. Who knows, who knows."
