So, I'm looking to compile a list of classes, spells and feats that can change a creatures type.
All help and input appreciated: looking only at official 3.5/3.0 sources, no PF, no 3rd party, no home brew. Not adding Dragon or Dungeon content at this point, but maybe later.
Not looking at templates, unless they are granted by a class, spell or feat.
Should also have mentioned, not primarily looking for complete and permanent form changes, such as PAO etc. Mainly looking for abilities that change type, without changing fundamental form, if that makes sense.
I'll also not be including monster/savage progression classes, at this stage.
