Ok, let's assume i'm playing a tiefling (but any other race that qualifies fits), and i picked up the "human heritage" feat [RoD 152] at 1st level.
Applying the changes derived from the feat is not hard, but what happens if, later on, my type changes to undead (IE: Necropolitan)?
My interpretation:
- I keep the Undead type and all undead racial traits (among them: no con score, healed by negative energy, cannot be raised/reincarnated, if resurrected come back as pre-necropolitan, immunity to mind-affecting, criticals, nonlethal, ability drain, level drain, ability damage to physical stats, fatigue, exhaustion, effects that require a fortitude save unless affecting objects, does not breath, eat or sleep, destroyed at 0 HP).
- If a spell of ability affects me in a different way because of my racial traits it does (IE: resurrection, "Inflict X" spells, Flesh to stone)
- If a spell of ability affects me in a different way because of my type, it doesn't (IE: command undead, "Cure X" spells, Detect undead)
That also means that the character would be healed by both positive and negative energy.
Any different interpretation (with rules to back it up)?
