Curse of the Dragonborn - REDUX - Vampire and Werewolf Hybrid

Overview

This is the successor to my now obsolete Curse of the Dragonborn mod. Same principle: you can simultaneously play as both a Vampire (or Vampire Lord) and a Werewolf. This isn't possible in Vanilla Skyrim, because if you've already become a Werewolf through the Companions questline and Harkon or Serana turn you into a Vampire, you're normally cured of Lycanthropy.  And vice versa, if you've already become a Vampire Lord through the Dawnguard questline and you then become a Werewolf while with the Companions, you would be cured of Vampirism in the Vanilla system. With this mod, you will no longer be cured of either Vampirism or Lycanthropy.

The difference to this mod's predecessor is that this new mod is much more compatible with available Vampire and Werewolf overhauls like Growl or Better Vampires and doesn't change any scripts. Vampire and Werewolf attributes and mechanics will be those dictated by what you're using, be that through the Vanilla system, or be that via overhaul mods. Meaning, contrary to mods like True Hybrid, this mod doesn't change anything in regard to how you become a Vampire or Werewolf, or what your appearance or behavior will be when transformed. It only grants you the possibility to play as both.

I've also added an MCM that displays your current status (i.e. Vampire, Vampire Lord, and Werewolf) and the number or necks you've bitten as a Vampire. The MCM also allows you to become a Vampire (or Vampire Lord) as well as a Werewolf, and you'll find options to cure yourself of Vampirism and Lycanthropy.

There's a patch available for Better Vampires, but all it does is ensure you can't transform into a Werewolf while you're in your Vampire Lord form.

What This Mod Does

When you start your game for the first time after installing this mod, you'll receive new abilities that monitor your status as a Vampire or Werewolf. These abilities will only become active it your status changes, meaning the mod is very lightweight and doesn't use any notable system resources.

When you become a Vampire or Werewolf, or if you already are one or the other when installing this mod, you'll see your status in your Magic Inventory in the Active Effects list (press P on your keyboard). Depending on whether you're a Vampire, a Werewolf, or both, you will see up to two new constant effects:

• []Resist Cure Lycanthropy

  []Resist Cure Vampirism

  As long as these effects remain active, you can no longer be cured of Vampirism or Lycanthropy. So, if you're already a Werewolf, becoming a Vampire will not cure you of Lycanthropy. Vice versa, if you're already a Vampire, becoming a Werewolf will not cure you of Vampirism. If you've already complet
