Turel the Druid here again.

improved elemental shape; lets you become any elemental (not just the MM1 elementals).
so i see Elemental Weirds. oh boy, i get there feats too (empower spell, maximise spell in particular). heres the Q:

1) can i turn into a weird or do i need a "pool" to start with.

2)can i prepare spells that are empowered/maximised while in "weird" shape? i can stay in Wild shape for 27 hours, so in theory i could spend all year as a weird

3) assuming i can, once i phase out of "Weird" shape, can i still cast the empowered Flamestrike? or do i need to have the feats to cast them?

4) if i indeed need a pool, is it just like a "weirds"? (gate to elemental plane, killing properties) or would it just be a "focus" for my shape.

I also have access to the Hellfire Wyrm (very cool dragon)
i get its (su) shapechange Tiefling/devil ability, does this mean ANY devil!??! my DM was 50/50, then said "my druid wouldnt know about the ability and wouldnt know how to use it" - basically he didnt want me to break the game into bits. but id like to know what u think.
