Vampire's Thralls are creatures that are the result of the power Vampire's Servant in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Characteristics[]

Vampire thralls are beings that are forcibly under the control of a vampire, and thus possess no free will of their own. They will attack any person or creature, which isn't of the same kind or a vampire, including the Dragonborn on sight.

Interactions[]

Be wary, as finding a thrall guarantees that a vampire will be nearby. Based on their armor and their ability to wield weapons and occasionally magic, it can be theorized that they are former bandits or adventurers. Even though the thralls seem to have no free will, they appear to have retained some measure of greed. For instance, in the quest "Laid to Rest," the Dragonborn may see and hear a vampire thrall searching bodies.

In the Dawnguard expansion, if the Dragonborn decides to become a Vampire Lord, more insight is revealed into how thralls can be made. Although vampire's thralls may not be created by the Dragonborn during normal gameplay, in "Prophet," a thrall is used by the Dragonborn to pursue Harkon's goals. They are tasked with creating a thrall from a Moth Priest and forcing him to read an Elder Scroll; as such, Dexion Evicus is forced into enthrallment by the Dragonborn.

You may not create thralls besides the one you make for the storyline.
