No one seems to have a list of what you can polymorph into at certain levels
As a doppelganger, so I thought we could make one:
(useful things:)
2 -hill orc
4 -cockatrice
6 -xorn
9 -diamond golem (and everything else)
Anyone have any other monsters? I am currently in fort ludios (for the first time!)
As a Xorn, with Mojo and the GoDefense. I have a huge amount of polypile fodder,
But I keep creating golems. I am lvl 10.

Eva's page is usually a *very* good source of spoilers on anything you may
want to know (and even more).

Rock mole is handy for digging out vaults/ hidden closets, and also for
being able to eat dirt when hungry. I don't know when you are
guaranteed to get the polymorph successfully, but I have done it at
XPlevel 1 before now (after quaffing gain energy, of course.) Umber
hulk is another good one for similar reasons, but I think you'd have to
wait for XPlvl9.

Dragons and purple worms are also good forms to assume, for eggs.

Thanks, but I was thinking more of a list-type spoiler.

added:
3 -nymphs
5 -unicorns
9 -dragons

While this is probably dead, I keep finding dead posts, and learning useful things from them, so figured I would add something.

3 -quickling

Acts as nymph, but super fast and either sex. Much more survivable due to speed (but can't remove ball and chains.) Can't use weapons either.
