Cost/Value: 2 points

Description

You have drilled the basic forms and mathematical calculations of spellcasting into your muscle memory. When seconds count, you can bypass the standard structural requirements of a spell formula without sacrificing the spell's stability.

Mechanic: Once per combat encounter, you may ignore the standard +2 success penalty typically applied when attempting to "Snap cast" (casting a spell instantly without proper preparation time/gestures).
