LE "The Gift" available after finishing "Kindred Judgment"(Dawnguard faction)

I accidentally double-posted a duplicate of this topic. Sorry about that.

 

It's a little disappointing that as a vampire, the player never has the option of turning his/her spouse if they don't join Volkihar. What I would suggest is a little dialogue option that appears when a script checks two things before allowing that option to appear:

 

A. completion of the Dawnguard questline with the Dawnguard faction

B. being a vampire

 

Choosing the dialogue option begins the quest "The Gift" with unique quest footnotes in the quests tab.

 

For flavor, the option can be a persuasion test the player can make once a day, to roleplay being a convincing/charming character for people who invest in raising Persuasion, or being persistent in trying to convince their spouse(not investing much into Persuasion), so that players don't have to level the skill if they don't want to.

 

Turning spouse from diseased immortal to Vampire Lord

If turned into a 'lesser' vampire the first time, aka not a vampire lord, a second script can be made to check spouse's race and allows a second option to appear(possibly after a few days for roleplay purposes) to prompt a second turning, this time for Vampire Lord. If the check is positive for 'lesser' vampire race, the dialogue option appears and can be selected to start "The Gift" again, this time to turn regular vampire spouse into Vampire Lord (only special change being 'turn [spouse] into a Vampire Lord').

 

This would work in hand with Better Vampires, a mod which allows the player to turn whoever they want, but it would allow the quest to be available to players who choose the Dawnguard faction.
