Why must your inventory vanish under the full moon?


Anyways, I think that Vampirism and Lycanthropy as they stand have been upsettingly narrow as far as choice goes.


You can A: Hunt people to sustain your monstrous self

Or B: Find a cure



There is really not enough that can be tailored by you either way. Like, suppose you were roleplaying as an honorable Vampire or Werewolf or whatever. Everyone- Absolutely everyone- hates your guts anyways. And you can't say a thing to convince them otherwise.

It'd also be more interesting if you could somehow improve your control or ableness under the influence of either disease.

In Oblivion though, if you got your fame and reputation high enough, people wouldn't care that you were a vampire...

Really, though, if you're a Vampire, you are a parasite at the end of the day...people should be wary, if they suspect you of being a giant mosquito.

okay... But what if, like I said, there were really cool advantages
like the stretchable armour and weapons? Okay the inventory part is
dumb I agree you should be able to see your stuff and pick things up
as a werewolf. Lastly, instead of hunting someone every night , maybe
the player could have an item that turns them into a werewolf at will so
they don't have to kill anyone if they want.

Something I just thought of, what if regular animals give you a wide berth if you become a Vampire, as they recognize you as a Hellspawn and if freaks 'em out? Particularly difficult if your house hasn't grown accustomed to you, or trusted you yet.

Werewolves basically have the same thing, but low level dogs and wolves will follow you and never attack. However, if any wolves or dogs are of higher level than you, then they would compete to be alpha.

It annoyed me in morrowind that average wolves got along but if a wolf saw u (as a werewolf), they would attack immediatly. What if the other wolves would ignore u in were form but when u take out ur claws to attack, they trigger and say to emselves "ah s*** he gonna attack me" and they fight back. Only combat between other canine if you start it lol thas what u think.

Dude, more than that. Unless you were some low level, really weak Werewolf, I think they should see you as alpha, i.e, you could maybe 'communicate' to them primatively, you know, without language, take over a wolf pack, unless you just slaughter them.

Now, a werewolf AND a vampire might have problems, as they'd smell that you're a filthy hellspawn and flip out.

okay yeah communication would be epic. I said somewhere above something about talking with hircine and maybe even hunting with him. That made me think of a way to start a werewolf quest.

After being inffected, u can make your way over to a hircine worshipping shrine where you become one of hircines hounds and slowly after doing missions raise ur rank in hircines wolves.

That would be wicked! And plus, them hunting in packs, you should almost always have some backup, if you get into a fight. I like backup.

NEW IDEA! K, if hircine were to host another bloodmoon ceremony in skyrim, you get to the highest rank of werewolf and get to chose the participants. As a gift from hircine for being so helpful would be maybe a spell to toggle lycanthropy.

I know this idea is a bit choppy but some editing could easily fix it up... Hircine has to gain your trust for sure... Oh I got it! He has to give you the gift to pass down your lycanthropy like the vampire guy in the dark brotherhood in oblivion. Maybe if there is going to be children onthe game u could pass the curse to ur son and add him to the pack?

You mean horse right? I dont think your house would be able to avoid you. I like this idea though, it would add different consequences to being a vampire. I didn't really like the sun damage, it was too pwerfull, if it had been just a stat drain it would be better.

Yeah I avoided being a vamp for so long... Sun damage is like manditory for vampires tho... They can't change it now.. Maybe just reduce the damage a vamp takes in the sun

Skyrim vampires are so much cooler than Cyrodiil vampires.

It would be pretty darn surprising to walk out on a lake and suddenly find yourself at the bottom of it, surrounded by a bunch of malicious dead people.

Hmm... it would be very interesting if they brought all the vampires in, and had a vampire guild where you choose which type of vampire you wish to be.

Look, all I want is a grapple move, where I then bite and feed from the person. I'd enjoy that. Or if we're still doing the "feed from the sleeping" thing...how about an automatic sleep spell, as a vampire? ;)

Just thought of something. You're the last Dragonborn.

Would being a Vampire make hunting dragons difficult, you think?

Other than the obvious disadvantage that vampires would have against something that breathes fire, I'd imagine you'd still attack/get attacked by Dragons at night like you would in daylight. Unless they follow you into your lair...
