Mod Idea - Vampires in the Commonwealth.

[Sillius_Maximus]

At present, the vampire options for fallout 4 are  "not there"  in the same way they are for skyrim (for very understandable reasons).

 

This idea, Introduces Vampirism- not as some mystical thing, but as a mutation.  mutated creatures are what make fallout, fallout.  here is how it might work:

 

Vampirism is a mutation.  Not sure how you contract it, but  "radiation, fev, geck, whatever"

 

It neednt do much in terms of powers or abilities per-se but, the way you feed:

see : The Strain Clip - Youtube  or ESO vampire feeding, or tentacles from skyrim mods

Positive Effects of feeding to you:

  Similar perhaps to night person /day person.

  satiates hunger.

 

Negative effects:

   if you dont feed, you suffer a charisma penalty perhaps?  

 

Effects on target of feeding:

   death

   fear

   paralysis

Valid feeding targets:

   Humans, alive and recently dead.

   Perhaps most anything that isnt an insect (like bloodbugs)

   

Hostile:

   Not hostile if hidden. but causes others to run in fear from "something scary happened but we dont know what"

 

Crafting

   Perhaps be able to harvest blood- if for some reason you wanted to take a more "im a vampire but dont really want to show it, human love" approach..

 

Sharing the mutation

   Perhaps, a small percentage of tentacle attack victims are reborn?
   Perhaps there is a way you could make a syringe, that delivered a persistent effect... so you inside corvega assembly for example, and shoot a raider with the syringe...  immediate effect is anguish in pain, collapse, reborn  and then frenzy... but the attacks are tentacles...

does look to be one of the better ones, but at-least to me that looks more like a supernatural/mystical thing.  What Im advocating for is more of a "natural" / "science" feel
