You can use a spell-like ability with a moment's thought.
Prerequisite: Spell-like ability caster level 8th.
Benefit: Choose one of your spell-like abilities, subject to the restrictions described below. You can use that ability as a quickened spell-like ability three times per day (or less, if the ability is normally usable only once or twice per day).
| QUICKEN SPELL-LIKE ABILITY | |
| Spell Level | Caster Level to Quicken |
| 0 | 8th |
| 1st | 10th |
| 2nd | 12th |
| 3rd | 14th |
| 4th | 16th |
| 5th | 18th |
| 6th | 20th |
| 7th | - |
| 8th | - |
| 9th | - |
Using a quickened spell-like ability is a free action and does not provoke an attack of opportunity. You can perform another action - including the use of another spell-like ability - in the same round that you use a quickened spell like ability. You may use only one quickened spell-like ability per round.
You can only select a spell-like ability duplicating a spell with a level less than or equal to one-half your caster level (round down), -4. See the table below. For example, a creature that uses its spell-like abilities as a 15th-level caster can only quicken spell-like abilities duplicating spells of 3rd level or lower. In addition, a spell-like ability that duplicates a spell with a casting time greater than 1 full round cannot be quickened.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times. Each time it is taken, you can apply it to another one of your spell-like abilities.
Normal: The use of a spell-like ability requires a standard action and provokes an attack of opportunity unless noted otherwise.
