[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 5991278, member: 6669384"] From the SRD... The highlighted section runs counter to what the spell says. To me, that looks like an editing error. The changed the spell, but didn't correct the general heading info to match. But I know of rules lawyers who life for that sort of stuff. As for [I]Polymorph[/I] into an Outsider: The [I]Polymorph[/I] spell lists the types of creatures you can turn into. Outsider isn't on the list. Now some DM's may allow someone who is already an Outsider to do that, but otherwise the answer should probably be no. It's one of the odd points of these spells. A Half-Dragon can [I]Alter Self[/I] into any kind of Dragon, but not into another Half-Dragon, since templates aren't allowed by the spell. Over all, [I]Polymorph[/I] is often considered one of the more broken spells in the book. Trying to bypass the few limits it has will probably piss people off. [/QUOTE]
