-A separate spell ([[Haste Other]]) allows monsters to give the haste status to other creatures. However, fairly few monsters possess it, and no monsters have both spells at once. The separation between the two monster spells and the resultant inability of [[dread lich]]es and [[deep elf sorcerer]]s to haste their summons is more of an artifact of the way monster spellcasting is implemented than a mercy on the part of the developers.
