Cleanse spell from PRD

Cleanse is a personal spell that can supposedly remove nausea. However it is a standard action to cast and you can't take standard actions when nauseated.

So I guess I'm asking what part of the spell is incorrect? Is it the range? Can you use the spell on others? Is it a special exception to the standard action limitation on nausea? Or was nausea just tossed in there as a condition without the consideration that it can't actually work?

Quickened cleanse could remove nausea.

Only other fringe case is nausea caused by a mind-affecting effect and suppressed by a magic circle against evil.

Mostly I think it was so that cleanse and heal had similar removed effects in common.


Can't cast any spells while nauseated.

From the PRD:
Nauseated: Creatures with the nauseated condition experience stomach distress. Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move actions per turn.


Ring of spell storing major?

"The activation time for the ring is the same as the casting time for the relevant spell, with a minimum of 1 standard action."

Oh well, it was a thought. You could cast it on an animal companion gained through the animal domain via the share spells ability.

Well, there we go. A fairly limited niche use, but a legal one all the same. Sehr gut.


Contingency.

Have someone else cast it on you?

You did bring a spare cleric/oracle/inquisitor, right?

Right?

The spell has a range of "personal".

I'd do as follows.

Contingency: When next I snap my fingers twice, let this cleanse spell be cast on me.

Huh?

I strongly object.

As a mother.

Cleanse is a cleric/inquisitor spell. Clerics and inquisitors don't get Contingency.
