Okay, so I bought the Dawnstar expansion off of Steam (woot steam sale) and as soon as I gain the master vampire perk at the beginning of the tutorial for how to use said skill tree, I am immediately flagged as an enemy by all of the NPCs in the castle, I literally come out the door of the room where you regain conscienceness and I am attacked by everyone in the castle, no agro actions taken. I thought at first that it might have been a mod conflict, so I went through and reinstalled Vanilla Skyrim, same thing, new game, no mods. Any ideas at all?
