i had this cool idea, i dont know if they are having vampire, werewolves and more in skrim but, if you were to transform would your shout change or any other abilties change?
give me transformation ideas to add to the poll.

i did some research and typed fast so i didnt have to look at this anymore. so dont judge me and just tell me so i can edit.i know most of this is out of order...

things to know about vampires(you probably know) ablities: imortality, cant be in large amounts of water (holy water is worse), speed increases, sunburns are off the charts and can turn to ash if head is exposed to sunlight, regeneration of skin cells increases and major bloodline can regenerate organs depending on how much blood you have, major bloodlines can have wings and change into bats, silver and the power of a cross are toxic to vampires because it reverses the regeneration rate and can open wounds that have been already healed also it weakens the imortality by somewhat half, (death by garlic, wooden stake / and the "can not enter house & church without permission" are from some sorcerer from some place cursed a bloodline and it happens that all other branches died). depending on the bloodline somethings can not effect them, thier has been vampires in sunlight and can stand in water, some have speical powers that i dont feel like researching.

things to know about werewolves (you again probably know) ablities: change in to 1/2 wolf man beast(some are permently changed(some are uncontrolably changed/ these have no sence that they have changed),speed, strength size increases depending on how strong the rays of the moon,decreases in shadows slowly(perment wolves stop this decrease at some point).i know im missing more, tell me what it is....

A shadowpuppet (hand figures) is also a person that turns all black except for thier eyes. abilties: cant go where the shadows are not , speed increases tramendously and can teleport with in the same shadow, stretch shadows depending how strong the light and how much shadow you have, can only be effected by magic attacks.

gargoyles are stone creatures(statue) that come alive at night:i read that gargoyles were another form of vampires that created the abilty to transform their skin in to stone while hit with light so they didnt die.bla bla bla in the story continues, the pure vampire set war agains gargoyles to keep "pure" bloodlines.abilties: transform to stone (regeneration as well in this form), and what ever i said about vampires, but not the major bloodlines abilities, this trasformation change ended major bloodline ablities and that created the war between vampires and gargoyles.

zombies are mindless beings (or a virus with the ablity to control living or once living things) the ones that are still living and just controled are much faster and can do simple tasks.abilties: cannibalism with insationable hunger, changes others to zombies by trasfering blood, live beyond their damage unless the head is damaged(if the living zombies get die, they become the slower dumb ones(that why if you are transferd by a zombie you become the dumb ones)

Shadowpuppet? Sounds kinda like a Shade to me, with it's shadow abilities. I would like being a Shade, but I doubt there is something similar in the lore.

1 your pic scares the :swear: out of me and 2 im looking up what a shade is (dont judge me) :glare:

You forgot Dragons :biggrin:

If I had to pick I'd say Zombies that would be sick seeing one of them or heck a group of them transform into some hideous sick looking creature.

With my limited knowledge, coming from a lore and implementational base, I feel that only Vampires and Werewolves are the only plausible options.

I expect Vampirism.
I want Lycanthropy.

still a good idea to through some ideas at them...

how are you going to change into dragons???? :blink: (not being mean)

There is transmogrification in TES lore. The way I did it in previous TES games was Conjure X creature+Invisibility.

lol yeah, its John Cleese as a Roman Centurion in Monty Python's Life of Brian.

As far as I know, Shade is a D&D term for the creature you described, shadowpuppet may be the real world term, through I think the closest I've personally heard of in RL is Shadow People sightings in paranormal investigation.

Heres some info on Shades http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_%28Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29 http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Shade_%283.5e_Template%29

They are formed by someone being infused with the essence of shadow, and they also have a weakness to fire and penalties to fighting in relatively bright light with smaller penalties being applied proportionally to the amount of light they are in.

:laugh: whats that (i feel really stupid)

what about Weredragon?

shadowpuppet is like a nick name since the name shade comes from D&D

in the lands of the Frozen North...The man/woman with the most hutzpah and hair wins...Werewolf all of the way baby...

Hell yea, Skyrim is THE land for werewolves. Bring em on and let the hunt begin! Anynone else like to wake up in the woods naked and try to remember the "dream" you just had?
