I'm considering becoming a vampire...not right away or anything. i'm level 27, and still exploring. i've only done a couple quests here and there, and i'm mainly just going to all the shrines/ruins i can. i'm considering taking up a career as a vampire, cause well...vampires are neat. i was just wondering if you guys think its worth it. i know the stats benefits, and i know that you can't travel using mages guild/silt strider...so is it worth it? i know you can fly, and you're basically a god in some respects...think its fun?

level 27 eh ? Did you already do the quest where you get corprus disease ? If so, you can forget about becoming a vampire. You're immune for them. If you haven't had corprus, you can still do that. There are a few vampireclans in Vvardenfell, but i don't know their exact locations. I'd say your best bet would be Red Mountain.

I never tried to become a vampire myself, but i sure would like to give it a try sometime. Most important thing imo is that you get to do a bunch of totally new quests, though it sucks that you can only travel by night.

I have never really had a vamp-character, but I have considered it many times.

You CAN become a vampire after the coprus-cure, but you must use a Weakness to Disease spell (on self).

Ps - There is a vamp lair just north-west of the Foreign Quarter exit from Vivec.

The Baerne Clan is based near the Molag Mar region, S of where the Telvanin stronghold is built. There are tombs with both Quarra and Aundae vamps near by.

Aundae base is in central Shegorath.

Quarra base is near Ald Velothi.

I have been a vampire before. * notice everybody unsheath their weapons *

it's cool, it has it own advantage and disadvantage as well. But the main reason for me to become to vampire is so that I can get a good single handed long sword.

like other people say you ought to become one before you get the corpus disease quest.

Vampires rock. It's definitely worth a try, especially if you are high level: your skill and stats get pumped up so much you won't believe your eyes...
My char could jump litterally across valleys and land on cliff racers from above... I miss it, really, even now that my level is doubled.

Hint: choose carefully the clan you get infected from...
