{{3.5e Feat
|name=Quicken Spell-Like Ability
|summary=Cast Spell-like ability as a free action.
|prereqs=[[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|Spell-like ability]] at [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] 10th or higher.
|benefit=Choose one of the creature’s [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like abilities]], subject to the restrictions described below. The creature can use that ability as a quickened [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] three times per day (or less, if the ability is normally usable only once or twice per day).

Using a quickened [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] is a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]] that does not provoke an [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]]. The creature can perform another action—including the use of another [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]]—in the same [[SRD:Round|round]] that it uses a quickened [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]]. The creature may use only one quickened [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] per [[SRD:Round|round]].

The creature can only select a [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] duplicating a spell with a level less than or equal to half its [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] ([[SRD:Round|round]] down) –4. For a summary, see the table below.

In addition, a [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] that duplicates a spell with a casting time greater than 1 full [[SRD:Round|round]] cannot be quickened.
|normal=Normally the use of a [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] requires a [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]] and provokes an [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]] unless noted otherwise.
|special=This [[SRD:Feats|feat]] can be taken multiple times. Each time it is taken, the creature can apply it to a different one of its [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like abilities]].

Creatures with access to [[SRD:Psi-Like Ability|psi-like abilities]] can use this [[SRD:Feats|feat]].  This [[SRD:Feats|feat]] can be used only on [[SRD:Psi-Like Ability|psi-like abilities]] that do not have increased effects due to augmentation. Furthermore, the creature can quicken only a [[SRD:Psi-Like Ability|psi-like ability]] with a level less than or equal to half its [[SRD:Manifester Level|manifester level]] ([[SRD:Round|round]] down) minus 4.}}
