Boo. I was hoping there was one in some obscure book that would let my gnome become a succubus (not with the powers, but for flavor) without it just being an illusion. I suppose PAO would work in a pinch, though.
As far as polymorph any object goes, I've never used it before. Does it give the abilities of the creatures you polymorph into? As in, if my gnome sorcerer polymorphed herself into a succubus, would that come with succubus powers? I see nothing in the text of the spell saying otherwise.

So it's unclear.
PAO works like other polymorph spells when used to turn into a dragon or other things already covered by the polymorph line of spells.
Since PAO doesn't really provide direction on what you would get from turning into a succubus, and there isn't another spell that covers it I think:
1) Your type definitely does not change, your remain a humanoid(gnome) and you would not get the resistances of being a general outsider.
2) You would probably gain some special abilities of being a succubus, but probably not all. How much would be left up the your GM.
Also, remember Pathfinder is a permissive rule set. It tells you what you are allowed to do, not what you aren't.

Can you change your race?
You can be a gnomish sized Tiefling. Just fluff your traits and physical description to those similar to a Succubus.
You get your flavor and keep your size, and depending on on the variant Tiefling you use, might keep similar racial stats.
Edit: Actually there is this spell Angelic Aspect. Just refluff what the effects look like. It is from Champions of Purity, but there wasn't a counterpart on the Champions of Corruption. You could ask the GM if they are willing to convert it to an Evil version through Spell Research rules as well.

@Skylancer4: No changing race, and no refluffing, since this is for a PFS-legal character. It was just something fun that I came up with based on the use of an illusion to make her look like a succubus to fit into a demon-infested area.. she decided she liked the way she looked, and might enjoy becoming an actual succubus for a short time for some dalliances. :-P

Ah, okay. Playing a PFS legal adventure isn't the necessarily the same as actually playing PFS. That was what threw me.
