I really like the vampires but I think in the vanilla stadium.... they are not really "finished". I thought about giving this a try myself once the CK is out.... but maybe someone has the means to do it even now! Here are my suggestions: 1. With each level of vampirism your vampire character "grows" older Reasoning behind this idea: Each higher level makes people more and more uneasy around you... so I think you should kinda get uglier.... As there is a slider for age in skyrim and in showracemenu maybe it would be possible to assign various ages to various stages of vampirism... 2. Burning in the sun I believe that being a vampire means you really need to flee and hide during the day... therefore I think it would be quit fun, if your character would set him/herself inflames at level 3 or 4 when going out in the sun... the higher the level... the faster you burn to a crisp and die... 3. As a high vampire you should have other options than feeding on the sleeping... it would be nice to get a dialog option to "charm" any given NPC into following you... the higher your level, the longer the charm lasts. The next step would be: Once you decide you are save to feed on the charmed victim you charm him/her into falling asleep in order to start feeding If the charm ends... the victim wakes up and runs away... she will stay scared for a set amount of time... maybe even create a bounty on your head if it reaches the town guards... 4. I also agree with the OP, that there should be a risk of killing the victim... those who played the Vampire masquerade will know the mechanism I want to suggest: Once you start feeding you get to see the life bar of the victim, as you feed the life-bar drains out... if it goes out completely... the victim dies... 5. There need to be more vampire levels... where an modded 4th level would be the highest level (meaning that guards attack you onsight only at the highest level) 6. I think the vampire should remain most powerful on the highest level... its the hunger that gives him the power... Hope this made for a relatively non-boring read ;)
