OK ... trying to make sure I get type/subtype right when applying templates ...
Lets say we have a human who is turned into a sacred watcher. Sacred watcher is a 3.0 template that applies the Deathless type and does not mention subtype.
So we started with Humanoid (Human)
which, with the template, becomes Deathless. Based on reading Augmented, I believe that he becomes: Deathless (Augmented Humanoid). Since Sacred watcher is a basically a good ghost, I believe it should gain Incorporeal subtype as well although its not stated? Not sure if that is a 3.0 vs 3.5 thing that just wasn't updated.
So that would become Deathless (Augmented Humanoid, Human, Incorporeal)? Does it lose the Human subtype?
OK ... next level ... we have a tallfellow halfling wereraven
So starting, I think we have: Humanoid (Halfling, Shapechanger)
Same process ... becomes Deathless with Augmented Humanoid. Gains Incorporeal subtype ... gains Augmented Humanoid? Does it lose Halfling? Does it lose Shapechanger?
Not sure that it really matters, but I'm just trying to keep it straight.
