BEWARE the dreaded WALL-O-TEXT!!
I also enjoy messing with the populace from time to time. It can be fairly satisfying.
Here! Here!
As far as skyrim is concerned I think they are on rather equal footing. Either can be just as vicious and deadly, yet I do prefer skyrim vamps over wolves. I'm happy with dawnguard and their new VL form. It satisfies the beast within.
As to your question, I like them both ways. Depends on the character and the fantasy I suppose. In the common media I much prefer the vicious cunning of Dracula. Sure he seduces, but there is always that dangerous glint in his eye. At any moment he could move from a simple seductive p.rick on the neck to feed and instead go straight for the jugular, or he might just throw it all out the window, tear her throat out and bath in the blood. I also did like the beast of Marcus in Underworld: Evolution. Admittedly it took a while for it to grow on me, but I do like the bat face, the wings, and his epic bestial prowess. He kicked ass and didn't bother with names. Just kicked ass. I get a sense of that when I transform in-game, which may be why I like it so much. I also don't mind the bat faces. I kinda like that "vicious-sophistication" look like Varen Mareti. My Raven pulls it off pretty well.
Oh, and the only time a vampire should sparkle is when they're lit on fire. I did appreciate the different powers idea, but I much preferred how it was handled in Legacy of Kain and Soul Reaver. Too the rest of http://images.sodahead.com/profiles/0/0/2/2/0/3/1/9/7/lmfao-29220764055.png I can only say http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/128/b/f/Twilight___Blade_Poster_by_Lycan_wolf96.jpg....and maybe http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs49/f/2009/196/e/2/Twilight_VS_Blade_by_BiteHattori.jpg....and http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wMel14wIEa4/TEOJ-vOaGII/AAAAAAAAAGQ/STubbqch3tM/s320/blade_twilight.jpg.
1. Do I have to "stealth feed" on them? or do neck bites count? I'd rather prefer to neck bite in Vampire Lord Form. I constantly run around at level 4 vampness, even before Dawnguard (thank you sooo much Bethesda ) and so prefer to stay in that state as often as possible. I play my vamp as always on the edge of a feral rampage. She holds it together only just so that she can take advantage of the advanced powers.
2. I have yet to find a werewolf in game Any tips?
3. With Dawnguard I walk around in broad daylight at stage 4 all the time, and nothing too it. The townsfolk (I rp) either don't recognize it or don't care, just so long as I don't start any trouble.
Right now my vampire, Raven, is trying to build a life of her own. She's procured various secluded lands throughout skyrim (thank you Hearthfire) where she can hide out and live in relative peace when not on assignment (Volkihar or DB).
She's even convinced herself that she's in love. The truth of that is still up for debate depending on who you talk too in her dysfunctional circle of friends. She's married and has two adopted kids. A full family to take care of is her small slice of 'normal' in all the darkness that is her world now.
By no means is she a tragic soul, though her origin story may be, instead she revels in her new life and enjoys the fact that at nearly any given moment she is the most dangerous creature in the room. She finds comfort in the fact that she is the reason people fear the night and darkness, and takes every opportunity to remind whatever local populace she might be passing by of that fact.
She is showing ambitions of maybe starting her own family of vampires, and so is amassing vast stores of wealth, arms, artifacts, and the like. Right now it's just her "rainy day" funds, but one never knows what the future may hold.
If locations are relatively close, and I'm feeling of the mind, I'll hop down to the road north of Lakeview and transform (usually at night) and surf the roads and wilds between destinations for necks to bite. Woe unto the bandits or forsworn I may come across. They seldom get a pass. And woe unto any Thalmor I may come across in my travels. I always take my time to display them on the road as a warning to all, especially the Altmeri Dominion. I may be a Villainous Vampire, but I'm also a True Nord at heart. Finally, random travelers like farmers and hunters often get a pass however, unless they attack me. I'll even take sides if I come across a fight. In that sense I take on a Spawn-esk protectorate role, looking out for the little guy that's just trying to survive.
But here I go again, rambling on...
