Does anyone know if sorcerers retain their bloodline powers while they are polymorphed? The Magic section states:
"While under the effects of a polymorph spell, you lose all extraordinary and supernatural abilities that depend on your original form (such as keen senses, scent, and darkvision), as well as any natural attacks and movement types possessed by your original form. You also lose any class features that depend upon form, but those that allow you to add features (such as sorcerers that can grow claws) still function. While most of these should be obvious, the GM is the final arbiter of what abilities depend on form and are lost when a new form is assumed. Your new form might restore a number of these abilities if they are possessed by the new form."
This should be cut and dry, but which bloodline powers depend upon the "original form" of the sorcerer? I'm mainly concerned with the Capstone abilities for this question.
For example, Boreal's 20th lvl Child of Ancient Winters ability gives a bunch of immunities, but is that a result of body modifications, or just mystical attunement to the cold?
The Celestial bloodline's Ascension gives immunities, untyped bonuses (notably not racial bonuses) and the ability to speak any language. Which ones are based on body features, and which are retained in a polymorph? Or since it's technically only a single (Su) ability, would you have to lose/retain all abilities together?
What about the Destined bloodline? Would all of it's abilities be retained, since it's all mystical? If so, and if the above capstones turn off in a polymorph, does that create a problematic power disparity between the bloodlines?
Thanks in advance, any answers here would be helpful...
