Vampiric Deformities : V - Skyrim

Vampire face customization would be great to have. I find the glowing eyes a bit silly. Also the way NPCs react to you should be changed. You look like a corpse with eyes on fire, and go in to Whiterun....then the first thing you hear is " I don't claim to be the best blacksmith in Whiterun. Eorlund Gray-Mane has that honor "... lol...

Why Bethesda didn't add a vampire NPC who can change faces beats me.

This a bit off topic but the amount of people I've feed off in dawnstar they should all be vampires. I don't know how this works but feeding not infect people?

Only if you were sent to turn someone.

This is how it should work - the longer you go without feeding, the more deformed and ugly-looking you get. As you feed your face slowly goes back to normal. Not sure it it actually works that way, but in movies and TV that's usually how it goes (or actually, the older the vampire the more it resembles a bat - hence the pig-like bat nose).

Thankfully it does not work that way. I would not want that for my game.

I say the deformities stem from the vampiric powers, kind of similar to how the Sith in Star Wars start becoming powerful and their physical appearance start getting affected. That's how I like to look at it.

I wish my nord could look like the Thrallmaster, Volkihar vampires are supposed to look like beasts, after all.

Is anyone else reminded of the Lost Boys by the deformed Vampire face? You know, when the vampires go, as me and my friends called it, "full bat."

Hahaha they do kinda resemble kiefer Sutherland in that movie.

The only changes I noticed in my Altmer is the fact his skin turned deathly pale, almost a pale white-gold color, has the blood-stained lips with the lines going down them, has a rather emaciated face, and of course the burning eyes. I personally like these changes, since they give him a proper vampiric appearance and make him look like a freshly slain and risen corpse.

Could just make up stuff and say.. Normal looking vampires are the purebloods and people turned directly by Purebloods (which explains why the dragonborn doesn't look like the Thrallmaster guy..lol)....and the Cyrodil Vampire clan because they sold out and attained the ability to look normal. The deformed Vampires are the ones turned by the people that were turned by a Pureblood previously thus the bloodline weakened. =P

So why aren't people turned by the Dragonborn pig-faced?
