Welcome, one and all, to my first build for Crossworlds 2. A mix-and-matched armored vampire Spellsword, with a slightly darker twist, and some style, I am proud to present....
Dhamphiric Theme Music
“Born the child of an ancient vampire lord, and noblewoman, Annalise Vergilius, his father’s concubine. The Dhampir, Lucien Vergilius Cronqvist gained the powers of his father, with the humanity of his mother. When his father was sealed away, he stole away with powerful artifacts, alongside his mother, to live under the protection of the Dawnguard, who was commanded by a kinder man by the name of Richter Logarius. Over the centuries, he had to fight his darker instincts, as ambition grew in his undead heart.. But now, with the strife of the Civil War, dragons, and vampire attacks, The Dhampir set off to slay his father, Lord Harkon Cronqvist.¨
The Dhampire will utilize two glitches, which can help boost the power and survivability of the build:
The Potent Equilibrium Glitch-Utilizing this, after taking select perks, you will be able to boost the Health-to-Magicka conversion rate from a mere minimum of 25%, to a minimum of 37%. Becareful, as you can kill yourself if you aren’t paying attention.
and
Extended Slow Time-Taking the Restoration perk Necromage, and the Alteration perk Stability, one is able to boost Slow Time’s duration to a minute or so. More on these twin glitches later on.
Race: Breton Vampire Lord
-25% resistance to Magic, Dragonskin, and bonuses to Conjuration, Alteration, Restoration, and Speech.
Standing Stone: The Warrior or The Mage, then switch to the Advanced Lady. A Philter+Elixir+Philter of the Healer will buff your health and stamina regen by at least 120%. With the Aetherial Crown, grab the Ritual
Stat Spread: 3/2/2 in Magicka, Health, and Stamina.
Primary Skills: One-Handed, Restoration, Alteration, Enchanting
Secondary Skills: Speech, Destruction, Conjuration (Unperked)
Alignment-Chaotic Good
Primary Quests-Main Quest, Dragonborn, Dawnguard/Volkihar, Civil War (Imperials), College of Winterhold, Destroy the Dark Brotherhood, Lost to the Ages
Worship-Arkay/Molag, and Mara/Hermaeus Mora

Potent Equilibrium-Equilibrium-A rare Alteration spell that can, as far as I know, only be found within Labyrinthian. What this spell does is converting health into magicka. Perking Regeneration and Necromage in Restoration, alongside Alteration Dual Casting, while being a vampire, will boost the effective transferral rate from a mere 25% or 37%, to converting at least 103 health-to-magicka. Using a healing spell such as a Dual Casted Close Wounds or Fast Healing will keep you alive.
Extended Slow Time-While it isn’t exactly breaking news, new players to Elder Scrolls might not know that the Necromage perk, unlockable at 70 Restoration, boosts effects affecting any and all undead, including your vampiric character. Adding Stability to this, which boosts the effects of Alteration effects, of which Slow Time is (oddly, yet awesomely) considered a part of. With these two together, mixed with a found/bought Philter/Draught/Elixir/Potion of Alteration can make Slow Time last at least one minute.
With two sides of the coin to the Dhampir, the character’s gameplay shifts ever so slightly, depending on how long you’ve gone without feeding. Before we get to that, we’ll need to become a vampire. After escaping from Helgen, turn westward, and go down the road, and you should eventually come upon Shriekwind Barrow. When fighting the few vampires held within, try and get them to use Vampiric Drain on you. Once you see the pop-up stating you’ve acquired Sanguine Vampiris, feel free to kill him or her.
On the topic of the Potent Equilibrium glitch If you have Necromage, are a vampire, and the Regeneration perk, it will boost the effects of both Equilibrium, and any healing spells. Dual Casting Equilibrium will increase the health drain, but also the magicka restored.
The Advanced Slow Time/Quick Reflexes glitch allows us to replicate the speed of a full-fledged vampire, allowing us to sidestep an enemy’s.
Depending on which side of the gameplay you prefer, then it will effect whether you follow the Dawnguard, or Volkihar.
Now, if you can find one in a shop, or as random loot from a chest or deader, grab an Amulet of Talos, as well as a Philter and Draught of the Healer, more on that later. Now, onto the two sides of gameplay.
The Night’s Guardian-The noble, more human half of the Dhampir, the character plays more like a spellsword than its evil counterpart. Using summons, this allows aid to the Dhampir in fights. Using a mixture of flame spells, Necromage sun spells, a silver sword, and a companion wielding Dawnbreaker, alongside the Ebony Mail, which he stole from his father, few of his fellow undead stand a chance, and neither do bandits and mages who would harm the innocent. Utilize Blood Magic to regen your Magicka when needed. Fire Spells are useful for ranged damage, and using either Whirlwind Sprint or Become Ethereal work to close in for the kill. Banish spells are good for blowing those Atronachs back to the smelly pits of Oblivion! Now, for every light....
The Daedric Blade-It casts the deepest shadows. Embracing the Daedric nature of his Vampirism, after having fed on more than two individuals, Summoning Undead with the Ritual Stone, the Dhampir in this form
utilisez swordsmanship more than magic. Activating Dragon Aspect and Lightning cloak allows the usage of an ability. To fight dragons in this form, use Draonrend to force them to land, and either activate DA and charge in, or switch to Vampire Lord form, and start draining health when he’s in the air. Storm Atronachs are your friends in this form.

The Night’s Guardian
The Daedric Blade
*Daedric Claws-Vampire Gauntlets Enchanted with Fortify Unarmed*
*Skills And Perks*
One-Handed-Easily switching between dual wielding, single wielding, or sword-and-spell allows The Dhampir to deal with various foes. In synergy with Necromage Vamprisim,
Restoration-To make usage of Necromage Vampirism, as well as to heal oneself, and one’s followers.
Speech-Keeping our pockets full with gold is useful for buying soul gems, training, and enchanted items, as well as allowing us to turn some situations into your favor.
Enchanting-Roleplayed as the Daedric nature of the Dhampir seeping into his arms and armor, this allows us to not only name our items, but keep this character survivable above Adept.
Destruction-Combining fire and shock spells allows us to do DOT damage to our foes with the ¨afterburn¨ effect of flame spells, and drain the magic of dragons and enemy mages alike with shock spells. Chugging down a Fortify Destruction potion can boost your damage further. It also lowers the number of times you need to recharge your blades.
Alteration- Taken primarily for the Stability perk, this little perk will boost the effects of Slow Time, coupled with Necromage Vampirism, and a Fortify Alteration Potion.
*
*
Wolf Shift-Momentarily shifting into the ethereal plane, the Dhampir seems to turn into a ghostly wolf, before returning in an icey blast.
(Conjure Familiar+Become Ethereal+Fire Storm/Sun Stone)
Daedric Release-Tapping into his inner Daedric nature, the Dhampir becomes an inhuman being, crackiling with arcane energy, and bestial strength.(Zahkriisos+Ebony Mail+Fortify Destruction Potion+Amulet of Talos+Daedric Claws+Dragon Aspect)
*Roleplaying*
Always keep a Potion of Blood on you, to stave off the beast within.
Never touch a Silver weapon with your bare hands, for it harms you.
Never eat/drink too much ¨mortal¨ food/drinks, for it has little effect on you, and you loathe it.
Try and manipulate situations to your favor. Treat your companions with a mixture of contempt and begrudging respect.
INSPIRATION
First off, thanks to Lee Friskilis for the awesome perk spread. Now, if you haven’t guessed, the Dhampir is inspired by dhampir (half vampire)/full vampire Alucard (The Castelvania Symphony of the Night one primarily, not the Helsing or Lords of Shadows one), as well with touches of Vergil Sparda of Devil May Cry infamy.
