03-13-07, 01:45 PM When you use the Imbued Summoning metamagic feat (PHII), can you imbue multiple summoned monsters simultaneously?

In other words, if I cast Summon Monster "X" to summon 4 creatures, do they all benefit from my Invisibility spell? Or just one of them?

Does the metamagic feat even work if I summon multiple creatures?

Also, what type of spell is affected by the metamagic feat (has its level raised)? Is it applied to a touch spell of 3rd level or lower? Or a summoning spell? The feat is terribly vague.

Feat Description:
When you cast a spell from the summoning subschool, you can choose to grant the summoned creature the benefit of any spell of 3rd level or lower you can cast that has a range of touch. You cast the spell you wish to grant the creature (using a prepared spell or a spell slot) at the same time you cast your summoning spell. The creature gains the benefit of the spell when it appears.
An imbued summoning spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.

Since you are actually casting the spell you are granting to the creature, then all rules for the cast spell apply. Therefore, it if has a range of touch (one creature) then it would only affect one.

The metamagic feat is applied to the summon Monster spell that you cast and it's level is raised.

I guess that makes sense. Thanks. :D
