Though i have a vampire who has gone down the evil path (after all, i need a character that can join the vampire side in dawnguard), i have decided to put my other vampire down the good path.

Though this character has feed on innocents before, im making the game harder now because i want this character to become more morally good. And the way to do this is that this character can now only force to feed on evil characters (like bandits, or those racist murdering forsworn).

This makes the game whole lot more challenging. Before i decided to take this path, it was quite easy to feed since all you had to do was go to a town/city in the night, and there are places where people of a city/town would sleep during the day.


Since i just can't feed on any random person in a city, that means there is more of a chance for my character to reach stage-4. So not only do i have to avoid people and try not to kill them when under attack by good people, i have to search for bandits or forsworn, or other evil, and sneak in one of their camps, avoiding detection (using the calm spell helps) and feed on one of their sleeping members.

Though its challenging, its quite fun. So i encourage those who try to play more moral characters, even if said character is a vampire, to try it this way.

Of course it seems that dawnguard would make it alot easier to role play as a "good" (or as close as a monster can get to good) vampire because you can now feed on the living (therefore making it easier to feed on bandits, etc) and also not get attacked at stage-4.

Couldn't you just feed on maven blackbriar. She does seem pretty evil or atleast on a dark gray area.

Personally, my vampire would prefer not to feed on nice people, but those very "nice" people are the ones who necessitate the feeding in the first place, since they won't accept peaceful vampires. Everyone is, in essence, "bad enough".

I don't think she is a murderer. But if she was, or some criminal/thief then i could justify it.

I feed at Hunter's Rest near Falkreath. They poach..... And there are always two hunters sleeping there. When Dawnguard comes out you will be able to get bottles of Blood that count as a feeding.

She has contacts in the thieves guild, dark brotherhood and the thalmor.One of the current meadery workers even hints at the fact the last one was killed by her.

However i think you have to join the vampire faction to be able to get those bottles of blood, that won't work for this vampire character that im talking about, because i don't plan on her joining an evil faction (after all ive kept her out of the thieving guild and the dark brotherhood for a reason).

Ok then, i'll have no problem feeding on her then

my good vampire happens to be involved with the legion side of the civil war. She feeds on stormcloak camps.

If you are looking for more targets, the silver bloods in markarath are extremely corrupt. They murder and steal on a regular basis.

I read somewhere in an interview that there was a choice....

The Beta testers are probably laughing at my explanation, but that is what I have gathered from various E3 interviews.

I hope that spoiler above is true.

Don't be mad if it isn't.... It is hard to find things on story.

Thalmor ties? That because she went to the party?

Maven says at the party that they more or less ignore each other.

I find feeding on the civil war faction I didn't join justifiable as a source of food for my vampire.Admittedly, I also have 1 go to person in each major hold I feed on if I cannot make it to an Imperial camp before sunrise.

Since the cattle are not harmed at all during feeding...i dont see why i cant feed on anyone. I do limit myself to feeding off the mer exclusively...especially Altmer. For no other reason than liking that particular vintage... a 300-400 year old Altmer is divine, and unlike most of the populace in Skyrim bathe often...

if that's the case I'm definitely not siding with Harkon

No, she had also stated that she could have inquisitors hunt you, so I had assumed that she must be able to pull some strings in the thalmor.

Good or not , but I'm going to kill you , abomination !

Could mean I was wrong, but not necessarily. She could still have friends within the thalmor hierarchy, but her organization and the thalmor keep out of each others business like a mutual respect. I had actually never heard this line before so it gives me some doubt.

I'm the apex predator, I'll feed on whomever I want.
