For Dragons, I would say no. True Polymorphing into a dragon does not give you new spells that you can cast 1/day on top of your normal spell allotment. Can you cast spells as a dragon? Sure, but they are the spells you normally had access to. For fiends... well, is it fair to be able to cast a spell to gain access to new spells and new spell slots? I don't think it will is. But, maybe you could cast those new spells with the spell slots you have? It is a grey area. As for the Familiars, I think the main reason that Chain is seen as weaker than Tome is because Tome can also get Find Familiar for 90% of the value. The Sprite (from personal experience) can be incredibly valuable... but only in the right style of campaign. I'd rather find other ways to buff all the familiars for chainlocks rather than give them better powers in certain forms. I mean... I'd love a chainlock to be able to have a raven, think that'd be cool, but the Imp statistics are still so far superior that I would feel compelled to take the Imp instead</blockquote>
