Shapechange Questions

[Tetsubo]

With all of the changes and such concerning the Polymorph chain of spells I am more than a tad confused. I have a few questions about Shapechange...

Can you assume a Vampire (Undead) form with this spell?

You gain the Extraordinary and Supernatural abilities that a form has. Do you also gain the Spell-like Abilities?

Has anyone created a handy list of monster categorized by ability types?

Are there any allowed forms that have a dominate type ability?

Thank you.

You can become undead, but I don't think you can aquire a template (altho, that's far from clear) and vampire is a template.

You do not gain any spell-like abilities, 'only' extraodrinary and supernatural.

As for the dominate ability, the formian taskmaster comes to mind.

Re: Dominate

Aboleths have a (Su) dominate person ability.
