After the transformation, my female, Nord vampire's face got more gaunt, dirty, and somewhat wrinkled. Is this what is supposed to happen when a character turns in to a vampire, or is this a texture bug/glitch? I saved, reloaded, and the appearance changes are still present. It makes sense that your character should look more undead, but since the NPC vampires in the game do not appear to have this issue, I was concerned this might be a bug.

From what I have read, I knew the face would get more gaunt, the eyes would change, and the character should get fangs (which I cannot see), but I was not expecting the facial texture to change so radically.

Not a bug, it should change back if you cure it.

Youve been bit by a vampire flea... its already happening...
thats supposed to happen
