Cast roundtime

Casting time is incurred after casting a spell or using a magic item (such as a small statue). During this time, the character cannot use any spells, magic items, or societal abilities. Unlike a roundtime, however, it is possible to perform any physical action such as changing stance, moving, etc. However, one cannot go into a fully defensive stance; only a guarded one.

Casting time is usually only three (3) seconds.
