Ok so im using the fey'ri tiefling in a campaign and it says that i can only use my alternate form ability to take the form of humanoid creatures of medium size. Humanoid in the monster manual says that humanoid is a creature with a head,torso, 2 legs, and two arms. My question is does the creature i want to become actualy have to have humanoid as part of its types or can i change into anything "humanoid" shaped?

For instance i know i can turn into a human, but could i say turn into a Janni. Janni dont have the humanoid type from what im seeing but they are "hamanoid" shaped.

Thanks for any help. My character is a 7th level rogue so im just looking for some cool forms that i can take.

I'm pretty sure that whenever the rules say such a thing that the creature must have the humanoid type.

I'd count on Humanoid "typed" creatures, no matter the "sub-type.
