Oh! Uma'd gotten something easy. Paper was versatile as hell.
The first thing she did was check the maps to see if any of them seemed legitimate. Because class was way less important than treasure. Once she'd ascertained they were all fakes, she started to plan. At first, she'd thought of making a shiv and attaching it to a spear, but that took too long to dry and ready. So instead, she grabbed a quarterstaff and as many knives as there were treasure maps.
The blades all got pulled out of their handles and set aside. And then Uma started folding paper. One single, flat sheet of paper was useless for weapons. One single folded sheet of paper was a goddamn miracle. She folded the paper in half six times, four times lengthwise and twice width, and then shoved a knife blade into the middle of it. It took a lot of maneuvering and wiggling, but it eventually pierced all six folds. Metal cutters got rid of any of the extra bits that stuck out of the bottom fold of paper. Then she grabbed a hammer and the longest nails she could find and hammered the paper onto the quarterstaff, one nail on either side of the knife blade. (For the remainder of the blades, she'd fold, nail one side, push the blade through, nail the other, but it was a work in progress.)
The last blade, she attached to the top of staff itself, giving it a piercing tip. In the end, it almost looked like an elongated nailbat, but Uma was satisfied with it.
