Question: Rules change of Zones

[Underhill83]

Hi Everybody, i have a question and google etc. does not answer it completely :-(

Say I have Olivia Voldaren and use her first ability to a creature, which goes to the graveyard afterwards.
(Ability resolves, damage is dealt, creature is killed)

1) Is the creature still a vampire while it is in the graveyard?
2) Is the creature still a vampire in case it returns to the battlefield?
3) I asume that the answer would still be the same, if the creature would move to the commander zone, instead of the graveyard?

Thank you for your help!

1) No, cause its not a Vamp just when Olivia bites him and when hes in the Graveyard hes his normal types.
2) Same, u also can exile ur creature and get it back so its not a vamp anymore

If u switch the zones, it lost his Vamp type.

It's also useful to remember that if a creature leaves the battlefield, then comes back, it is considered a different creature (i.e. same card, different permanent.) So if you cloudshift in response to a Doom Blade, you creature comes back to the battlefield, but the Doom Blade isn't targeting it, it's targeting the old instance of that creature.
