Vampirism - Yay or Nay?

[Ryutouchdown]

don't like the facial effects on vampirism..such as pale white skin.. wrinkles red eyes..really ugly

but the benefits are good..just hate feeding, appearance and sun damage

Actually, about vampirism, as a vampire, do heal spells still heal? Or do they do damage to you? Also, can you still heal at a church altar (for example, if you increase your "good" attribute by donating to the poor)? Also, I read on the wiki that drinking blood actually make you WEAKER as a vampire by reducing the vampirism percentage. That doesn't even make any sense! Also, does drinking blood make your face become more mortal or is that just for stats?

well yeah u can heal with ur heal spells AND at the chapels but if u have done any bad things i cant heal at the chapel and first u msut be arested or something like that BUT if u dotn wanan be arested (and lose any of ur things that u steal) u better open the console and type player.payfine and all ur crimes are history

So does drinking blood make your face younger or is that just for stats?

I like playing as a vamp WITH mods ... not without :biggrin: i just dont think that bethesda's idea of a vampire fits with all the real-life lore on vampires..(i read alot of anne rice..etc) after all there supposed to walk among normal people .. how could they do that if they look like fugly-freaks? :wink: lol so yeah with vamp-cosmetic mods.. its all good :tongue:

i prefer anne rices take on vampires personally :blush:

And I prefer Kinoko Nasu's take. On that note, are there any Tsukihime-related mods? I know that there's a Fate/stay night-related mod on this site, but the author made it private...

the spells were awesome u can transform into a vamp but u cant still bite then i have done something(that i dont know even NOW) and i was nice looking at face and i wasnt damaged by sun and i can bite humans it was great :D

i want to tell u what i have done but even I dont know

I can't see any benefit for being a vampire. If they had included some quests for vampires only, it could have been even a bit more interesting.

 

Lithian's Nature of the Beast makes vampirism awfully fun though, even if it is a bit overpowered.

I don't know if someone has mentioned this, but http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15697 gets rid of vampire face bugs and selected appearance parts of it. It's not a mod to me if vanilla isn't doing it right the first time.

Yes, I am playing in vanilla oblivion. I don't want to use any mods until after my first playthrough, with the exception of the DLCs / Expansions. I'm currently collecting the ingredients for the cure, so hopefully I'll be rid of this annoying disease.

 

 

 

I wonder, can you turn back into a vampire after you've cured yourself once?

 

Yes, if you become a member of the dark brotherhood Vincent will offer you the chance to become a vampire. I personally love the benefits, but the freakin sun damage is soooooo annoying. Probably the only perk to vampirism is how easily you can rampage through Oblivion gates.

 

No u can't actually unless you use the console on the pc. Vincent will always offer it but after you've been cured once he won't be able to turn you back.
