BloodyDove sometimes its affecting a game negatively, the more realistic something is. Imagine in a Shooter that you'd have to go to a hospital for days everytime you got shot. Or take all games where u can carry way more than a human could actually carry.

See sometimes the more realistic games get, it's likewise more negativly impacting the game. And this is the same reason why there are so many Vampire mods. We all played the Vanilla already and now it is basically only enjoyable with mods like these.

Ps: Im not even using this exact mod here, just wanted to make this clear in general.

Are powers reversed?

theres hundreds of types of vampires from folklore and mythology from around the world. With most european vampire myths, vampires definitely do get stronger the longer they go without feeding. They usually become more beastial and/or insane the longer between feeding though, and of course the starving and succeptability to their weaknesses grow in concert.

Skyrim did European vampires right actually.

a fed vampire is a coherent vampire... .a hungry vampire is more dangerous

Vampirism is a curse that forces you to feed on blood. If you feed on blood, the curse lies dormant, allowing you to pass as human/mer. If you do not feed, the curse will drive you to madness and extreme bloodlust, while also growing stronger to force you to feed.

In short, you grow stronger because the curse is forcing you to feed, not because its "backwards".

I was unable to feed off anybody (neither sleeping nor seduced people) which made everybody attack me on sight. Anyone else have this problem?
Hat_Master_360 24 Dec, 2017 @ 2:58pm 
what about vampire seduction?
tinytim003 24 Nov, 2017 @ 5:25pm 
i love your description
teeto_69 17 Aug, 2017 @ 6:10am 
lorewise it makes since they get stronger, because that blood rage and feral instinct takes over the higher function of the vampire's mind. think of it this was are feral creatures as strong or stronger then the normal versions of? of course they are.

I've found a little bug which implies that you do not have the Embrace of Shadows and Vampire's seduction when you're the strongest, only when you're the weakest.
I do not know if there is a bug in the system or if it was planned in the mod.
I personally do not like it, having the strongest powers when you are weak is a big minus for me. Otherwise it's a wonderful mod that I thought it would be in the original.
To be On Fire and everything else is brilliant. I love your job with this mod but i have to take it down from my mod list. :-(
I do hope that you see this message and can do something about it.

Great idea i always hated having to feed
Escynturel Von Infinius 21 Oct, 2016 @ 11:25am 
It says this mod was published and last updated in 2012 but is still very unfinished. I guess it won't ever be finished then?
Foxy-A-Kitsune 26 Jul, 2016 @ 8:53pm

I don't know why but she seems to don't always burn... (actually I saw it twice)
Metalfencer 5 May, 2016 @ 3:00am 
@Dinomite you can use this mod without any dlc I think (don't seem to change anything about the dlc so I think you don't need dawnguard, the picture is probably just to had a related and clear one)
nice mod anyway
but is there anyway that Serana don't always burn and stay like if nothing happen ? ><
I mean, if you can make just for her an exception or something (it's just that I dislike to watch my compagnion burn every time, if you can't and/or don't want to change there is no problem, your mod is already a pretty good idea and nice work)
Armag3dd0n 12 Jan, 2016 @ 5:36pm 
HELP, WHEN I TURN INTO A VAMPIRE I CANT GO BACK TO BEING A HUMAN!!!
(short version) i forgot how to human
Woozerd 29 Nov, 2015 @ 11:49am 
Is there a one where i don't need the DLC?
SirVivel 3 Nov, 2015 @ 1:30pm 
This mod + Ring of Namira = feeding on corpses. Sounds good to me. Can you do it? ;)
Lewis 25 Oct, 2015 @ 4:15am 
make it so you can feed on corpses
[✚︎] Luci 27 Aug, 2015 @ 5:12pm 
Love the mod.
Looking forward to the powers being reversed too.
KingArthur 10 Aug, 2015 @ 9:09am 
please try to make the powers that you get level opposite too!!!!! please!!
TEMUJIN KHAN 28 Jul, 2015 @ 1:53pm 
great mod broo
[MET] Aditsan 11 Jul, 2015 @ 7:32am 
So I tested and Stage 4 vampirism isn't setting me on fire. What's the deal?
[MET] Aditsan 11 Jul, 2015 @ 6:56am 
Subbing, good mod
Cyber101 20 Jun, 2015 @ 1:43pm 
me too, I would like people to attack me if I am at stage 4 because I like the challenge
Marshal Bashar al-Assad 8 May, 2015 @ 12:58pm 
Does this mod makes NPCs hostile when you advance to level 4? I would pretty much apreciate if it happens, because I think it should be easy to detect vampirism in people when it advances so much.
Honor Guard 1 May, 2015 @ 9:55pm 
question is this ok with a mod that makes the drain spell better
[✚︎] Luci 5 Nov, 2014 @ 4:07pm 
I agree that having vampires grow powerful as they starve just doesn't make sense. It would also imply that those feeding on blood were trying to hide or 'escape' their vampirism, so it didn't follow that vampires were largely sadistic jerks.

Love the mod. Looking forward to the changes to the abilities and powers!
DesertDragon79 3 Oct, 2014 @ 11:36pm 
@The boss, just dont be angry that he has an opinion that is not yours ok?
hephaestus 3 Aug, 2014 @ 9:29am 
if your doing this can you fix the drain life spell because it still only does 2 damage after feeding
Bromora 31 Jul, 2014 @ 11:51am 
frost resistance is not the only upside and if your a nord then its even better and vampires have vampiric drain which takes health from others and gives you health which is awesome and also you have 100% poison resist and 100% disease resistance its harder to be detected you get night eye you can raise the dead and also frost resistance improves on stages!
I am sorry but this mod is stupid if you think its better then there you go but I think it is pointless and just accept it and dont get all angry because I have a opinon thats not yours
OK
Laowai 7 Apr, 2014 @ 5:31pm 
Hate the feeding thing, i like that the more you don't feed the stronger you become, it makes so you don't have to worry about anything. Only fire mages of course lol.
botc16 5 Apr, 2014 @ 7:36pm

Régina 19 Feb, 2014 @ 3:57pm 
It is compatible with Simple Reverse Vampirism, Skyrim-Blood is Everything WIP LOS, Void Sword 2 (Dawnguard required), Heart Breaker - A Killmove Mod, Vampire Seduction - more seductive please, Better Vampire and Bloodthirst - Vampire NPCs can feed?
Baron Marios 19 Jan, 2014 @ 6:19am 
I like the mod although I think you should switch the stages so that as the player feeds they can obtain vampire's seduction and embrace of shadows. They are for the more powerful vampires, after all.
arcaneprophet 15 Jan, 2014 @ 1:18pm 
can you make it so people will attack you at stage 4?
WizardOwl 5 Sep, 2013 @ 4:12am 
Just needs the progression of Vampiric Drain and Vampire's Servant switched around, then this would be perfect! :) I like Seduction at stage 2 to help get back to stage one, and i like Embrace of Shadows as a defence power when your strength is weakest.
Virgo.Marlane 22 Aug, 2013 @ 9:30am 
what about becoming a vampire lord before even getting bite by a regular vampire for the stages to take effect? do u still catch fire in the sun? i know dumb last question lol
Wyomeen 10 Mar, 2013 @ 12:40pm 
@skotie2007 (if you want to skip a ton of lore look at the last sentence). Because werewolves were created by Hircine who wanted them to be his perfect army and most of them didn't become his soldiers. Sad things is though, he really meant in death. When you die you go to the Hunting Grounds instead of Sovngarde (hope I spelled that write). It's a lore side effect in other words.
skotie2007 13 Dec, 2012 @ 12:43am 
Question, why do werewolfs seem to have zero side effects (no resting bonus OMG no! lulz!) while vampires seemed to be plagued with them? Weaker in sunlight, constant need to fed (unless you want a mob to kill you), powers( that suck to begin with) that disappear upon feeding, weakness to fire.
John Faraday 22 Sep, 2012 @ 7:37pm 
the reason you get more powerful and weaker at the same time as vampire is because the lack of mortal blood brings out the blood of the vampire. by nature vampires are weak to the sun and overall become stronger.
Tachrin 24 Aug, 2012 @ 11:40am 
@Dyrisk
The mod is not suposed to change the stages that you get your powers at (as of now at least). Perhaps you should read the description before you post something in the comments section. Besides, I think Vampire's Suduction should reamain a higher stage power anyways as it gives you the oportunity to feed and lower your stage.
Sid 22 Aug, 2012 @ 1:26pm 
This mod doesn't seem to be working. I still lose the Vampire's Seduction power when I feed and get it back after not feeding.
Deacon 21 Aug, 2012 @ 7:35am 
Does feeding bump you up all the way to level 1 or just up 1 level?
Varloqy 18 Aug, 2012 @ 5:20pm 
zombies dont eat brains they eat flesh.
Madao 17 Aug, 2012 @ 2:38pm 
@H2n4 Flu

And zombies, as you allready know, do not NEED brains, but they still crave it...

However, every fictional universe has a different perspective of commonly known mythological creatures/fictional creatures...

REAL mythology ice giants are not genetically mutated frost trolls... as they appear to be in the dawnguard expansion.

Wikipedia is not where you should be reading.
Madao 17 Aug, 2012 @ 2:36pm 
@H2n4 Flu

Wikipedia... Did that mention anything about sparkling vampires, if i may ask? And immortality is completely different from Invincibility, any immortal creature can be slain, deadric princes are JUST like that, with a slightly different case of course, the definition of Immortality is, as i probably allready said, Not dying from hunger/thirst, diseases or poisons, or aging...

Vampires are corpses, they do noty need food, neither can they die from poisons or diseases... unless they are magically enhanced of course, and corpses do not age either. Being a a walking corpse, or, undead, is just another form of immortality, end of story.
