Sanguinare Vampiris Skyrim-Like Vampirism

Skyrim-Like Vampirism by Sanguinare Vamp-Iris

This mod implements the mechanics and features of Skyrim's vampirism.

Weakness to Sunlight: Instead of taking damage while standing in sunlight, your attributes will be lowered, as well as the regeneration of your Magicka and Fatigue. The severity of the penalty depends on the weather, time of day, and the stage of your vampirism. A stage 1 vampire will receive no penalty during the early morning or in weather that obscures the sun, whereas a stage 4 vampire in full daylight will experience Stunted Magicka, 90% slower Fatigue regeneration, and 50 points of lowered Personality, Endurance, Speed, Agility, Willpower, and Magicka.

Vampire's Servant: You now receive a Greater Power which can command humanoids or reanimate corpses, the magnitude of which depends on your current stage of vampirism.

Vampiric Drain: You now receive a Destruction spell which can absorb Health. The spell costs less Magicka than similar ones which can be made at the Altar of Spellmaking. At later stages of vampirism, your Vampiric Drain will become stronger, and will additionally absorb Fatigue and Magicka.

Active Effects: Vampires now gain resistance to frost and immunity to poison, in addition to the benefits of vanilla vampirism.

Sanguinare Vampiris: The name of Porphyric Hemophilia, the vampire's disease, has been changed to Sanguinare Vampiris, and it now drains Health instead of Fatigue. A loading screen has been changed to reflect this.

Alternative Vampiric Progression: The alternative ESP features reversed vampirism progression, which makes feeding on blood advance your vampiric powers rather than regress them. You will begin as a half-starved stage 3 vampire, so as to not immediately gain access to the strongest vampiric powers.
