Quickened spell


Rules Questions


I wish to know if you can cast a spell (with a casting time less than 1 round) PLUS a quickened spell ? Or you have to cast a quickened spell first and after it a spell with a duration less than 1 round ?
For example Can a wizard cast a "cloud kill" and just in the same round a "quickened dimension door" ?

Yes I believe you could, seeing as quicked specifically allows you to cast a spell as a swift action. Though you'd need to make Dimension Door an 8th lvl spell for your example to work.

Caveat. In your example spells you have to cast the quickened dimension door after the cloudkill to cast these 2 spells in 1 round. Why, you ask? Because once you cast dimension door (in any form), you cannot take ANY actions until your next turn.

Then there's that as well. Good catch!
