Quickcast of Inhetep Charm

E/F/M:

This useful Charm enables the caster to reduce the time of any other Casting, save a Ritual, by two steps. A Charm becomes faster than an Eyebite (cast and active in the same CT at -5 Speed Factor), a Cantrip becomes an Eyebite (cast and active in the same CT), a Spell a Charm (1 CT time to activation), and a Formula a Cantrip (cast and active in but 5 CTs). Unlike a Hold Effects Casting (q.v.), this Charm requires no pre-Casting of a specific dweomer. Once the Quickcast has been activated, the caster need only decide when to employ it at a later period as deemed desirable during its Time duration. To apply the Quickcast to another casting the practitioner needs merely to decide to do so.
