[8-1] Hm. Maybe you're the kind of magical girl who doesn't have a cute animal mascot?
(But the only magic girl without a cute animal mascot would be cutely...honey...)

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Walk inside, politely ask to borrow the vine-making thing from whoever has it, walk outside, zap it at the outer wall, walk back inside and return the vine-making thing.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

And looking over the character sheets....... what happened to the skill point limit ???
What do you mean?
I increased the number of points you could add to your Attributes to 50...did I forget to note that in the OP?

They all start at 3. Your calculations are understandably off.

Inner thoughts : "I don't know you but now I'm going to hurt you!"
Kyle looks for a weapon.
Hm. There's one attached to that one girl's chest, but it's attached to her chest. You might be able to strangle someone with those vines, but it looks like your weapon options are limited to fists in here.
You feel a bit...ominous.

Select Kyle because of his obvious lack of fashion sense.
You select Kyle. You see a sort of black aura envelop him for a sec, before he keeps being outlined in black. Useful.

Head west, hide behind boulder. Check properties of screwdriver.
You abandon your other loot to hide behind a boulder. [10+1] The screwdriver is absolutely, positively powerless.

Thoughts: "Oh, ah, oh gods, where am I? And... Eeek! This dosen't make any sense! I-I-I guess since I heave a weapon, it's going to be OK, but this is so cumbersome...
Attempt to wield spear any way possible. If I can comfortably grab it and swing it around usefully, stab it into the ground and attempt to figure out what it does. If it's too short to be of any use, try to activate it while it's in my hands, and use it as defense if I'm attacked.
"Uh, everyone is armed... don't hurt me? Please? I-I can be of help, I promise, I, just, uh... I'm not good with fighting, you know, and... I'm kinda afraid. Like, need-a-Scooby-Snack-or-seven afraid.
It's definitely useable. You can swing it around, and since it's attached to the chestplate thingy, you can't lose it. Stabbing opportunities are going to be limited, but that doesn't seem like it's going to be a problem, as it seems to be able to fire rocky chunks out of its end when swung.
[Billy: 8-1]
[Kyle: 6]
The chunk misses both other people in the room and shatters against a wall.
[10+2] You also note that you seem to have echolocation, presumably from the spearplate thingy. Excellent little sense, that.

Profiled who in the group might be a rapist then look for a way down the mountain.(Also consider possible chance of actually being a cyborg.)
Hm...there's that one guy who doesn't seem to be wearing much under his suspicious sweatshirt, and who wears a top hat? And what's with that one woman in fatigues, or that guy in the plastic shirt? You'd come up with ways for Kyle to be suspicious, but you aren't aware that they're here.

Walk inside, politely ask to borrow the vine-making thing from whoever has it, walk outside, zap it at the outer wall, walk back inside and return the vine-making thing.
"Hey, who has the vine-makey thing? Anyone? Hello?"

Determine what my pants do and then punch the bitch that threw? a rock at me. And then apologize and explain I've had a bad day.

"Oh my god, oh my god, I'm sorry! D-did I hit you?"
Seeing the angry, brightly-colored man walking my way, respond peacefully.
Ah, please, I didn't mean to hurt you! Please don't come any closer, or- or- I'll have to use this!

Shake spear half-menacingly.
