Talk to them while they are sleeping or try to pickpocket them when they are sleeping to feed. Use vampire seduction on them while and then try to talk to them in the Dawnguard expansion.

If Dawnguard is installed, Vampiric Drain can drain health, magicka, and stamina from the target if a Volkihar optional quest is completed and the Bloodstone Chalice is used. Vampire's Servant This power allows you to reanimate a dead body to fight for you for one minute, once per day.

It increases in power with every stage of vampirism. Vampire's Seduction This power is similar to the Calm spell and can be used once a day. Once the Dawnguard add-on is installed, Vampire's Seduction will allow you to feed on NPCs at any time, regardless of whether they are sleeping. If you do not possess this power during the vampire version of the quest Prophet DG , you will temporarily receive it in order to enthrall Dexion Evicus , only to have it disappear after use.

Embrace of Shadows Embrace of Shadows is a power similar to the Invisibility spell that can be used once per day. While this power is active, you will be invisible and have Night Eye for seconds. Interacting with the environment or attacking will make you visible again.

In order to remain at, or return to, the first stage of vampirism, you must feed on a sleeping NPC. To do this press "Use" while crouching or standing over them and select "Feed". Feeding should be done with caution, as witnesses will immediately become hostile. You can feed on almost any NPC that sleeps in a bed, including all races and even ghosts and other vampires, but not children. A sleeping NPC may become hostile if they wake while feeding and detect one of your followers.

This can be avoided by having your follower wait outside or providing them with a muffle enchantment. The most effective and safe way to feed is to use an Invisibility effect from either a potion , spell , or the Embrace of Shadows ability, since feeding is one of the few actions that does not cancel the effect. Followers can be fed on with total impunity, so long as there are no other witnesses.

The Vampire Cattle DG are free to use for feeding. If you contract Sanguinare Vampiris during battle with a vampire, you won't become a vampire yourself for three days. Until then, you can rid yourself of the disease with a Cure Disease potion, any blessing , or by consuming Hawk Feathers.

After the first three days of infection, or if you obtained your vampirism from Lord Harkon or Serana, the task of finding a cure becomes more complex. Stealth -type characters profit the most from the bonuses of vampirism, but the disadvantages are rather inconvenient for other character archetypes.

Once afflicted with Vampirism , you will slowly progress through the four stages, eventually becoming "blood-starved. In order to regress to earlier stages of vampirism, you will need to feed. You can feed only on sleeping humans, which you can find in most towns. Sneak into their homes, creep up behind them while they sleep and, while crouching, the option to " Pickpocket " should appear.

Choose to pickpocket and you will further be given the option to " Pickpocket " or "Feed. If you rid the disease early on before the onset of symptoms, then a simple Cure Disease will do the trick or going to temples in towns and using the altar. At later stages, however, it is still possible to cure yourself by resorting to Lycanthropy or doing the quest Rising at Dawn. However, becoming a lycanthrope is permanent unless you progress through the companions and it has its own costs and benefits.
