Given the process is typcially done in a dream state. They drained the blood true but she replaces it with her own blood. So the vestiges blood is taken and replaced by Lamaes blood. So think more like say getting stabbed going to the hospital and having that blood replaced because you lost so much. That is what Lamae does to the prospective vampire and then replaces the vestiges blood with hers and this would be more of a blood transfusion.
This does mean, however, that some aspects of their character make less sense than they should. It seems this was balanced around using spells against undead, but becoming a vampire tags your character as undead. As a result, all buffs you receive are enhanced by 25%. Vampire Lord’s increase creative party names to your base attributes is affected by this along with any spells you use in this form. Plus he lost a lot of blood so he claims and no way he would be able to make it without crawling its more likely he broke his ankle. Yeah I can’t buy into that either it just doesn’t make sense.
Aren’t they undead on the basis of being soulless, not necessarily on the basis of being physical dead? It’s clear they still have bodily functions, even if there is paling and reduction of body temperature. Yep, in Daggerfall you wake up two weeks later in a graveyard tomb, removed from all guilds, and reputations set to 0. I think you also have a couple dreams about it too since before you ‘die’ . I personally consider them a form of Unlife rather then Undead, due to their continued sentience/sapience and their need for continued substance. I’m fairly certain that on my paladin build, my circle of protection spell does NOT work on vampires, so according to that, i would say no.
Some versions of Type IV also exist, typically reserved for Vampires and the like, who have a full-on Healing Factor. Owing to Third Edition’s tight embrace of Revive Kills Zombie, undead are harmed by healing spells, but there are a whole host of “negative energy” spells that heal undead while harming the living. A notable Type IV is the Necropolitan from Libris Mortis, a template designed to allow for a minimally invasive undead Player Character. They have some visible decay, and lack a full-on Healing Factor, but recover hit points naturally over time like a living creature. This is usually reserved for the “freshest” and more powerful undead, like vampires.
Unlike Draugr, their weapons and armor are better-preserved and they do not use the Thu’um against opponents. However, like Draugr, they will rise from their sarcophagi when enemies are near, although some Wights actively keep watch for intruders. Draugr are ancient, long dead Nordic warriors who rise again in an undead state.
DLC adds on to this list as well, with theDawnguard DLC adding skill trees for Werewolves while introducing Vampire Lords. Seen as a caster’s alternative to a Werewolf, Vampire Lords can siphon the life of enemies while levitating from a safe distance. Like any Bethesda game, there are plenty of unique things you can do as a Vampire Lord that most don’t know about. Here are 10 things you never knew about the Vampire Lord inSkyrim. I suppose if you wanted to be nit picky you could make the argument that Meridia recognizes the last dragonborn as a powerful and special individual who can get things done. Like cleansing her temple of the necromancers and undead which infested it.
To them they classify them as undead and wrongfully so as they are the very opposite of all that. What is true is the weakness to sunlight and the weakness to fire. Which weakness to fire is a trait that undead but also other creatures have like Trolls.. That is what they think they are but that does mean its a fact nope even if they consider themselves as such.
Erma’s dog Siris is revealed to be a Type IV after surviving being shot three times in the face and being run over to the point it left a very noticeable divot horizontally through his middle. And it was only these wounds that revealed his undead status in the first place, even to his Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl owner and her mother (who is also a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl). The zombies, skeletons and phantoms in Minecraft are all Type II. The Wither on the other hand has gradual regeneration as a Type IV.
This inspired works such as Varney the Vampire, and then Dracula by Bram Stoker. Stoker’s novel is considered the quintessential vampire novel and is the basis for most modern vampire fiction. In modern pop culture, vampires and werewolves are often presented as rival races that despise one another.
Vampirism can be cured using a Cure Disease potion, praying at a local temple, or becoming a Werewolf instead. As a vampire in Skyrim, you will need to roam at night to avoid sunlight and avoid speaking to NPCs. Being transformed into a vampire drastically decreases your natural immunity to fire-based attacks. This means that, when confronted with fire-based attacks, you will be more susceptible to the effects of the flames, and the damage that can result from them.
