Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greenfield" data-source="post: 5897254" data-attributes="member: 6669384">There's a trick that was explicitly legal in 1st/2nd edition, and implied legal in 3.*:  The "cursed" scroll.In earlier editions there was a specific price increase that had to be paid to prepare a cursed scroll.  3rd is a bit vague on this, so your Dm may refuse to allow it.The idea is a scroll whose spell effects go off the moment you read the title.  This function is normally used to prematurely trigger a harmful spell on whoever is examining it, but the same mechanism can be used to create what is in effect a "quickened" spell scroll, limited to spells that affect the reader only.Such as Polymorph. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  You'd need to designate the form when the scroll was scribed, and pulling a scroll from something like a Handy Haversack uses a Move action, but for this one the activation becomes a Free Action.It's a bit cheesy, I admit, but it sounds like your DM deserves a bit of cheese.As for the Haste:  Normally you can Haste a number of people in your party.  If your only concern is casting it on yourself, cover your nakedness with a pair of Boots of Speed.  Activation is a free action, and you get 10 rounds of Hasted action per day, which can be broken up as you see fit.</blockquote>
