Word of Recall

[DeliaP]

Actually, if you notice, all the actions listed as Attack actions are smaller font than Attack actions. You then have Cast a Spell back in the same size as Attack.

In short, while casting a spell may be an attack, it does not appear to be (as written) an Attack Action. Once you've cast a spell, the touch itself may be an attack action, but the casting itself is not. Therefore, Malack can't cast Word of Recall OR Slay Living or any other Spell (unless he has one as a Free Action or in some form that allows him to use it as a move action or an attack action, maybe a daily ability from his deity?).

Minor rules pendantry: while describing unarmed Attack actions, the SRD then says points out "Armed" Unarmed Attacks:

"Sometimes a character’s or creature’s unarmed attack counts as an armed attack. A monk, a character with the Improved Unarmed Strike feat, a spellcaster delivering a touch attack spell, and a creature with natural physical weapons all count as being armed. "

This is within the description of Attack actions. So a touch attack spell would seem to be an Attack action, RAW.

Now to me, it is irrelevant. The way this plays out is awesome!

Total agreement there!
