Volkihar Vampire
Basic Info
Level	48
	823
	413
Stamina	294
Spells/Abilities	Vampiric Drain

Volkihar Vampires are a type of vampire found throughout Skyrim.

BattleEdit

Functioning as mages who cast Frost spells and Vampiric Drain, they are typically accompanied by their Thralls.

Fire damage hurts them immensely, while they are resistant to frost damage. Staves, spells, and enchanted weaponry of the former variety works effectively against them in battle. Shock spells are also highly effective on them as they almost always use magic and shock spells drain Magicka

Contracting vampirismEdit

The Vampirism-causing disease, Sanguinare Vampiris, can be contracted from these creatures, either during melee combat or by being the target of their drain spells.
