For example, if I'm playing a Sorcerer with the Draconic Claw feat, can I cast True Strike then with the swift attack Draconic Claw grants, disarm an opponent, then use another swift action to cast Master's Touch?

The current rules are that you can only take 1 swift action per round.

And, I believe immediates and quickened spells count against that as well, yes?

Correct. Casting a quickened spell *is* a swift action. Using an immediate action takes up your swift action for your next turn.

Almost correct. If you use an immediate action during your own turn it counts as the swift action for your current turn.

Ah yes thank you. I was thinking using an immediate action out of turn, rather than on your own turn.
