If I was in steph's shoes I'd be really annoyed to know that all we needed to break the peace bond on the sword was one nice big blast of lightning. Oh well.

CARVE 'EM UP, STEPH!

Well, I guess that is a relatively famous "incantation" that calls lightning from the heavens.

The immortal she called out too must have found it hilarious and immediately sent lightning for the laughter AND broken the silly seal.

Other possible lightning calling incantations:

"Thunder! Thunder! Thundercats! Hooooooo!"
"By the Power of Greyskull!"

(both of these use a sword as well gosh dang it)

There also might be some words in some incarnation used by Storm, Thor, Lightning Lad/Lass,Surge, Shocking Suzi, Doctor Doom, Raiden.. you know what I am just going to stop there.

Because heck, I just realized how much of a nerd I am. So I need to go and die alone now.

I'm starting to think that it is more intent and less the words that make the spell.
Still all of the comic, sci-fi and fiction shout-outs do make for better spells.

Char uses "By the Power of Greyskull" to summon fire. Go figure.

I kinda think "Frammin' at the jim-jam, frippin' in the krotz" would be cool.

It does seem pretty clear that the words of an incantation are a way of focusing the mind. It may even be that with more experience Char could do the same magic without saying anything at all.

In the meantime, I can't see 'Shazaam' without remembering 'Shazoom' from the (very old) Mad Magazine parody where 'Superduperman' had to fight 'Captain Marbles', who used 'Shazoom' to transform.
It stood for
Strength
Health
Aptitude
Zeal
Ox, power of
Ox, power of another
Money
