Daedric (nord) Brute, with a tiny bit of magic.

Joining the Dawnguard because I'm a werewolf.

The Dunmer in my sig is who's going to help the Vampires blot out the hateful Sun...

Race: Breton in the Dawnguard

Tree 1: Archery
Tree 2: One-Handed (for Dawnbreaker)
Tree 3: Destruction (Vampires are weak to Fire, right?)
Tree 4: Conjuration (must-have since Vampires will be conjuring)
Tree 5: Alteration (Detect Dead, Paralyze, Flesh spells)
Skill 6: Sneak (I just always do this but don't take perks)

Race: Argonian
Class: Slayer
Faction: Dawnguard

Lv.50(So far)

Archery: (almost)EVERYTHING!!(15)
Restoration: Novice-Master(5),Regeneration,Respite,Recovery(2),Avoid Death,Necromage=11
Light Armor: Agile Defender(5),Custom Fit, Unhindered, Wind Walker, Deft Movement=9
Alteration: Novice-Expert(4),Magic Resistance(3)=7
Smithing: Steel, Arcane, Dwemer, Orcish, Ebony, Elven, Advanced=7

Weapon: Crossbow.

I'm liking this build so far. When doing the Dawnguard missions or fighting the undead in general I'm planning on casting Guardian Circle, and shooting Vampires in the back while they run away in fear. If we get silver bolts then this will only enhance my strategy.

Plus the fact that Guardian Circle will constantly be refilling my health, and stamina.

I love Restoration.

Female Nord

Major skills: One Handed, Archery, Illusion
Minor Skills: Enchanting, Restoration, Conjuration, Alteration

Going for a http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120121161749/powerlisting/images/9/9f/Selene_Underworld.jpg-style vampire (using a crossbow instead of guns of course) with the normal vampire skills of Illusion and Conjuration (raising dead ftw). Took Alteration because I love the unhooded Thalmor robes

My sneaky Khajiit:
Faction: Dawnguard
Combat Skills: One-H, Archery, Light Armor, Sneak

My tank Nord:
Faction: Dawnguard
Combat Skills: One-H, Block, Heavy Armor

My magic Altmer:
Faction: Vampires
Combat Skills: Conjuration, Restoration, Light Armor, One-H

Not doing destruction because it's underpowered as [censored], but can't wait to have some useful offensive spells as a Vampire Lord.

Same build that I've been using.
Race: Cyrodil, male.
Build type: Battle Mage, specializing in Heavy Armor, and dual wielding one handed weapons and staffs, and conjuration.

Name: Nidhogg
Race: Nord Warrior
Faction: Dawnguard
Stone: Steed/Lord
Skills: One-handed (Sword), Block, Two-handed (Great Sword), Archery (Crossbow), Heavy Armor, Restoration, Speech | Werewolf
Morals: Helps many people, never steals, never lies, never murders an innocent.

Name: Undecided.
Race: Khajiit Thief/Assassin (Haven't made him yet, though.)
Faction: Vampires
Stone: Not yet sure.
Skills: One-Handed (Dagger), Sneak, Archery (Bow), Light Armor, Illusion, Lockpicking, Pickpocket, Speech | Vampire (Lord)
Morals: Pretty much the epitome of evil, will steal from anybody to get by, very selfish, and will kill anybody who gets in his way.
Notes: Possibly going to add Illusion into the mix, as well as Conjuration (Necromancy) to go with the Vampire benefits.

Edit: I'm going to keep crafting skills away from these characters so they are more challenging.

Too Long of a post?

my nord warrior for the dawngaurd
skills: 2 handed, heavy armor, archery (crossbows), smithing

my khajiit assassin for the vampires
skills: one handed, light armor, sneak, archery (bows)

I was actually going to use this build for a vampire where I would use Conjuration to raise zombies, although a Witch-hunter does sound interesting

I doubt I'll make a new character, but the first one I use will be my argonian theif.

I don't change characters just for a DLC unless it's revealing something about my background like New Vegas' Lonesome Road did.

Weapons: Celestial Sorrow Katana (modded Blades katana with slightly better damage output and an enchantment that doesn't matter since I'm too lazy to recharge it)
Mehrunes Razor
Finriel's End

Armor: Moonlight Armor (Modified http://static.skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/images/5696-1-1327744467.jpg) or Ancient Shrouded Armor. Most likely the latter since I'm not looking to be overpowered.

Gear: Lots of Health Potions, Ingredients for more health potions, and did I mention health potions?

Im using my current character.

Female Breton level 78
All skills 100 except: two handed (42)(working on this one right now), pickpocket(72) and alchemy(93).
Using full Deadric armor and magic.

Never played as a vampire in Skryim so this will be a great opportunity to give it a try.

Lol my guy has light armor and heavy armor as major skills because i don't want to miss out on the awesomeness.

I started a pure warrior for the xpack.

he's almost 30
