    This build looks like it would synergize very well with vampirism, only thing that seems lacking for that role would be conjuration but vampirism does give a useful power that can fill the gap, and a sneaky type character often doesn't need or have use for a servant anyways.

    It is a vampire, and does use conjuration...

    I checked the video and I realised that you cast magic at 0 cost. All alteration, conjuration and destruction.

    1: It breaks the game. I had a character casting spells at 0 magicka cost and it got boring after a short time.

    2: How do you do that??? You wear archmage robes, even with necromage perk it reduces the costs only by 18-19 %. There's no Enchanting in the skill set so I don't get it how you cast all spells at 0.

    You might not have seen it under the 'link in description for full build' annotation, even though it is transparent

    Oddly enough, my current character is set up is almost exactly the same as this, right down to the clothing worn. The only differences are that she uses Restoration instead of Destruction, and opted to side with the Dawnguard instead of the vampires. Oh, and she's a Nord too. Skyrim belongs to them, apparently. 

    This is an extremely fun play style that I would recommend to anyone. It feels great to be able to focus entirely on questing and exploration instead of crafting, too.

    +1 from me.
