Duke Patrick’s Nosferatu Class Vampires Mark II Rev 4. 5 REQUIRES OBSE 20 or higher MUST DO A CLEAN INSTALL!

New Holy symbol effect on vampires! New vampire slaps your arrows out of the air feature! And lots more new stuff... Now compatible with Duke Patrick\'s Hammer-Blade mod. see here: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=27949 Mr. Pointy (the vampire stakes) is now more photo realistic instead of cartoon like, and it is no longer an enchanted item, just a stick!
