SNIP

I'd like to see a werewolf with substance. Like a little community has some problems with a werewolf every now and then but they don't really speak about it, because you're a stranger. I imagine they may don't really know who the beast is. As he may be some priest or the son of the village chief or such. Just so the werewolf isn't just a monster without any background, u know?

You sir, are a genius.
Complete and utter agreement.

Ahh, ghouls - a fellow hellsing fan I see. Great suggestions, bravo sir.

lol while i would like to take credit, alot of what i posted is already from other lore. mostly Anne Rice and older myths.

I would also like to maybe see a wolf form where you turn into a wolf (being able to pick a colour would be cool; black, brown, or white) this would give you better sneak ability in the wilderness, you would join the wolf faction so you could run with them and call them for back up if there are any within range, you would attack as a wolf but a little bit stronger than a normal one. also maybe a bat form where you can travel at a good pace through the air, maybe at mount speed or a little faster. also possibly a mist form where you turn into mist which would give you 90% chameleon. preforming a sneak attack on some one while in this form you would see your char materialize and take the target out.

i know none of the more advanced things i suggest will make it like like the wolf, bat, mist forms, fledglings, thralls, ghouls, and the growth process will make it to the game because of implementation and they don't fit the lore of the Skyrim ice vampires (for got there name).




lol actually i have known about vampiric ghouls years before i saw Hellsing. but yes great anime.

I might mod the ghoul system in if it's not in vanilla skyrim - the vampire system usually needs a bit of overhauling or some new features. Thralls, combat feeding, growing stronger over time, npc vampires that go around feeding - ect ect.

It'd be hilarious to see some city guards trying vainly to step a ghoul outbreak led by a few npc vamps, haha.

Vampires in every game they have been in have been well developed. The ones in Oblivion were well developed as well, so I don't follow you with the "they were underdeveloped" talk.

Vampires and werewolves should NOT fight against each other. Maybe a single quest were your a werewolf or a vampire and you are told to clear out a fort or cavern of said enemy. That is understandable, not a big war.

Here's what i would like to see in full for both:

Vampire
- 2 or 3 clans like Morrowind each with its own agenda and joining one make you an enemy of the other
- well balanced positives and negatives of being a vampire. ( increased speed, strength, health, stamina, and magicka but sunlight will kill you within seconds and fire deals double damage)
- perks and abilities focused on being a vampire. like shadow meld ( 75% chameleon while in shadows), frozen skin (weapons now deal 10% less damage)
- a growing process to being a vampire where with time you become stronger and gain more abilities that were not available before. for instance making a thrall (a vampire slave who will do your bidding. this person has no vampire abilities but will protect you while you sleep, transfer you during day between towns in buggy and will be a companion) and making fledgling vampires ( this should be granted by the vampire clan when they trust you to pick your children well. picking the wrong children could make vampire notoriety go up, they could start making their own children and make a rival clan that would need to be destroyed, or worse they don't drain a victim all the way and they become a ghoul [ pretty much a zombie that can infect others ] and you whole towns that become ghouls and you have to wipe them out)

werewolves
- being they are animals in there were form they could pack together in human form in secret covens as a form of safety
- well balanced positives and negatives of being a werewolf. ( increased speed, strength, health, and stamin , able to go on all fours and run really fast but you cant attack but transforming in from of some one and not killing them will label you a werewolf)
- perks and abilities focused on being a werewolf. like call of the wild ( you release a howl that calls wolves and possibly another werewolf to aid you. must be in wilderness) or honed claws ( your claws now ignore 10% of armour rating)
- a growing process where with time you become stronger and possibly tame you inner wolf, meaning you can control you transformations and eventually you can get it to where you only need to do once a week. failure to do so will cause i forced transformation where you will turn with little warning, which could be very bad if you are in a bad place for that, like a main story quest givers house.

I always hated the idea of vampires, my character certainly never was one in Oblivion. They just seem too weird.

I hated the ideas of normal characters. It seems too boring and meh. I always became a vampire or a werewolf on level 1 in Oblivion and Morrowind.

You've got some very good ideas. Hope someone from Beth happens to come on and take a look. Only thing I'm not really sure about is with the ghouls. I'm a big fan of Hellsing and ghouls are depicted wonderfully in the series, but I'm just not sure that such a thing even exists in TES lore. But otherwise, great ideas :goodjob:

Such a rebel. :disguise:

I kind of wish you could just choose to be a Vampire/Werewolfbear at character creation. For roleplay reasons.
