Well, thank you. I'm enjoying this conversation as well.

As for Harkon, I do not know. Perhaps Dawnguard will explain the inconsistency between the description of Skyrim's vampires in Immortal Blood and in the game. Speaking of which, I was happy to find out the identity of the vampire lord in the Laid to Rest. Since they tied in their vampire mythos from Oblivion I'm encouraged that they will handle Dawnguard's vampire narrative well.

Laid to Rest was an interesting quest. Movarth's presence was awesome. It further supports the theory that the Order or at least those of the bloodline, are in Skyrim. And the fact that blending in, feeding on sleeping people and the worshipers of Clavicus Vile all points fingers to the Order. Not to mention Sybille Stentor fitting the description of one.

I hope Bethesda adds ingame books to support some of the lore. Harkon's castle is named Castle Volkihar, so something is a bit off. There was a theory that the true Volkihar were hiding away over the centuries, and the Falmer(which are rumored to be involved) were mistaken for the Volkihar because of their vampire-esque qualities of paleness and urge to live in the darkness, further twisting the concept of what is truly a Volkihar and what is not.

I wonder if Harkon will comment on the player's vampirism, there needs to be at least some tweaked dialogue such as when Alva spoke to you if you are a vampire or Arnbjorn if you are a werewolf.

And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

Looking forward to so many elements in this!

Dragonbone weapons, at last.

Horse-mounted combat oh god.

One thing that does irk me is those vampire wings, I mean they looked like little shaved chicken legs in the trailer.

Don't know if it's been mentioned before, but Serana looks an awful lot like Serene from Underworld.

I'm betting it's a deliberate reference.

Edit: Forgot to say this, but man, those crossbows look brutal!

The Vampire Lord form looks like Marcus from Underworld as well. And it seems they have vampire politics based off the movie, sort of. In any case, I hope we marry Serana. And it is *Selene* by the way. Even their names are similar.

This guy is atrocious at gameplay. He spent ten minutes trying to get up in the stairs when he could of just reverted back to human form. And he spammed too much drain life spell. Casual gamer is casual. I am dissapoint.

I am definitely looking forward to this! I do agree with what SubRosa said, it would be more fun if we'd get new lands to explore like in Shivering Isles (which still is my favorite Bethesda DLC). But to me, it looks fun nonetheless.

I'm going to try to avoid any news on this DLC as I can until I can finally get it.
