LE Vampire Quest mod with Improved Vampire Mechanics

[rocker409]

Sorry for the amount of text i went and divided it up by category to make it easier. I also apologize for my bad spelling.

 

 

>>>The Overall Goal<<<

Basically i wanted to make a quest line that would allow you to become a new type of vampire with better mechanics OR let you get a couple of new quest items.

 

 

>>>Ranting<<<

Ok, Personally I didn't care for the mechanics in Skyrim, since the whole fourth stage every one attacks you is just dumb

and really inhibits you from playing as a full fledge vampire. Not to mention the fact that you only really use the new and cool powers

you get to just try to feed again so people stop attacking you. Besides even at level 1 they still think you look differnt; oblivion did it a little better.

On top of that it does not even improve your melee or raw power attacks and seems more geared to magic people, even though the new power they give you(vampiric drain) is really weak and pointless.

 

So i decided i was going to make a mod to create a quest line that will allow you to become a different type of vampire, or if you didn't want to, you could get some new items; Basically a Dhedra type of quest.

 

 

>>>So these were my main goals when i went about creating it....<<<<

 

1.make it more usefull to non magic people

2.how to improve and change the vampire mechanics wile keeping it balance and not god modeish (you can toggle it anyways)

3.make it so you can play at what level of vampire you want easier.

 

>>>ZE RULES:

Here are the new rules(mechanics):

 

You must feed in order to progress through the stages.

You will only go up one level each day; if feed on two NPC'S within that day.

To maintain your current level just feed on one NPC a day

Not feeding for a day will result in a loss of a stage.

In order to stay at level 4 you must feed once a day, or you will drop back down.

You cannot cure it

 

 

***I have keeped some of the things the same from the Vanilla skyrim vampire(they are buiiliten)

except i did change the recovery rates of the stats and the strength and magica cost of the vampie drain

AND i got rid of the people attacking you.

When you ask the Tavern Bar keep about any new rumors, she tells you that

there have been reports of a strange man walking around town at night.

You find him one night and find our he is trying to recruit mercenaries to go and hunt down some

vampires that his organization has been tracking. He also tells you that his organization has noticed a recent spike

in vampire activity.

 

DO YOU ACCEPT?

 

 

>>>**The Question** <<<

What do you guys think? Yay or Nay on my mod idea? :)

[MofoMojo]

I like your ideas a lot, especially reversing the stages where you eat to get to the next stage. I like that take on it, it's different.

 

I'm personally looking forward to modding vampirism as well, I want there to be good strengths balanced with strong weaknesses. I think they should be strong within their own right.

 

One of my thoughts that I look forward to implementing is Vamperism as a "Skill". The more you use your vampiric skills the more powerful you become as a vampire. Feeding will be a way to maintain those higher skills where not feeding may reduce them and weaken you further. Looking forward to the CK coming.

 

Keep it flowing!

If you don't mind my asking, how do you actually make all of these things happen? I am modding illiterate, but absolutely fascinated by the notion of modding Skyrim.

Well i am fairly new to modding. The only things i have done is Minecraft, a little bit in Oblivion and just changed the color of the mage robes in Skyrim. But i have been reading up and going threw the modding tutorials. Luckily since i am basing it of and just altering the vanilla vampirism that is already there; so that should help.

 

The only part that was tedious was writing all of the dialog, and i still need to get it recorded.

 

It would have course be nice if the CK was out!!!!! :wallbash:

I have found out some new and promising information. Basically i have found hidden powers that were disabled for vampires; one of them being Vampiric strength. This will make it a lot easier to make the mod. Here is a link for the download and deeper information
