So how is a starting DF character to use any of these spells?

The DF books generally do too little, in my opinion, to explain how the magic system is best used in DF games. This is one of many examples of this...
All of those skills do have a default, and many of them are IQ based; the high IQ wizard and priest can likely wing it, and if more power in that specific spell is needed pick it up with earned EXP
