Vampires Bane: Weakness to Sunlight
by Misorian

Oldrim Version nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/99851/


Description
I tried being a Vampire in Skyrim but got annoyed with the downsides really quickly, so I searched the web for a mod.
There are a few mods that drastically changes Vampires or remove Weakness to Sunlight all together, but this wasn't what I was looking for.
I wanted to keep some downsides to being a vampire to keep it more "realistic", So I decided to try and mod it myself.

Mod made with xEdit 4.0.3

All Edition work for all Vampires, including NPCs and Encounters.
All plugins are marked as ESL, so they won't count towards your maximum Plugin Count
Only use one Edition!
