Hello everybody, this is my first build so I hope it's up to par with the other builds on the website.
Lamae Beolfag was a nedic virgin who was raped savagely by the daedric prince, Molag Bal, after the brutal affair he shed a lone droplet of his blood on her brow. Lamae was found and cared for by nomads until her death. while she was being cremated on her funeral pyre, she emerged as the first pure-blooded vampire and slaughtered the whole nomadic tribe while still afire. so without further adieu I present to you the blood matron. This build uses content from the DLCs.
Name: Lamae Beolfag
Race: female Imperial or Nord (they are the closest races to nede)
Standing Stone: Mage stone then once you feel you have your skills to a sufficient level switch to the Lady stone
Dragon Shouts: Dragon Aspect, Soul Tear, Fire Breath, Drain Vitality, Dismay, Become Ethereal
Major Skills: Destruction, Illusion, Conjuration, Alchemy
Minor Skills: Restoration, Enchanting
Stat Spread: 7/3/0 M/H/S
Recommended Quests: Dragon Crisis, Volkihar, Mages College, Dark Brotherhood, Miraak
Equipment: Diadem of the savant, Vampire robes, Ring of the erudite, Amulet of bats, Vampire boots, Vampire Gauntlets, nettlebane
Recommended Enchantments:
Chest: fortify illusion/conjuration
Hands: fortify alchemy/magicka
Feet: resist fire/shock
Vampirism:
We all know Lamae is a vampire but I didn't want vampirism to be something needlessly tacked onto the build, this build uses almost every aspect of vampirism. The champion of the night ability boosts the power of all illusion spells by 25% which is a lifesaver since this build heavily relies on illusion magic. The necromage perk in restoration boosts all effects on undead by 1.5%, this greatly boosts the power of your spells and potions. Also, the vampire lord ability is very useful when taking down tough enemies like dragons or giants.
Gameplay:
In essence, the blood matron is a glass cannon, but she doesn't need to hide in the shadows as most vampires would , she uses fear spells, fury spells, and necromantic thralls to keep enemies away from her and deal out tons of damage at the same time. Fire spells from the destruction school are used because they are the most magicka efficient type of destruction spells which leaves us with more magicka to cast other spells. Restoration is extremely useful even though it is a minor skill. Healing spells are used to heal when an unexpected enemy lands a hit on you, heal undead spells are used when your zombie's health is low, and the dragonborn DLC gives us the poison rune, the only offensive restoration spell against the living, which can be fun to play with. Wards are highly underrated, with only a novice level ward you can block a dragons breath and with the ward absorb perk you can do this almost indefinitely, they can render any mage useless against useless against you and with a few fortify restoration potions, you can make lesser ward better and more magicka efficient than greater ward. Alchemy is our main support skill, potions can be used to greatly boost the power of spells and poisons can be used to quickly finish off tough enemies. Nettlebane is used to administer poisons to your enemies, you are not a warrior or assassin, that is its only purpose. Another thing I used to spice gameplay up was using vampire lord powers in human form, this can be found in the tips and tricks group here. These are your ideal perks.
Roleplay:
Lamae is a cold-hearted and sadistic killer who has a deep set hatred towards the daedric prince, Molag Bal, who raped her and turned turned her into a vampire against her will. She has no qualms about killing innocents and uses it as a release of anger for what Molag Bal did to her. After living so long, she has become very intelligent and places little value on life after seeing so many people live and die throughout the years. So in a nutshell you are only looking out for numero uno.
Perkspread
Alchemy:
Hellfire Elixir:
ash creep cluster + glowing mushrooms + snowberries
resist fire + fortify destruction
The Hand of Molag Bal:
bleeding crown + giant lichen + juniper berries
weakness to poison + weakness to fire
Lifesbane:
imp stool + skeever tail + scathecraw
ravage health, damage health, lingering damage health
Special Moves:
The Wake of Fire:
Requires: Become Ethereal with eternal spirit upgrade, secret of arcana, dual cast flame cloak, wall of flames, firestorm
The great thing about this is that it can be done at any level, secret of arcana makes all spells cost no magicka for 30 seconds and become ethereal with the eternal spirit upgrade allows your health to regenerate health 25% faster while you cast powerful fire spells on your enemies.
The Wrath of Coldharbour:
Requires: Dragon Aspect, dual cast flame cloak, ring of the beast, vampire lord
The beauty of this special move is its simplicity, just activate dragon aspect and dual cast flame cloak, then use vampire lord and activate supernatural reflexes then fight with the claws. With this special move you can make quick work of any enemy.
Closing Thoughts:
Thank you for reading! I hope you all enjoy this build as much as I have. Comment if you have any questions. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. Huge thanks to Zimbu for the amazing screenshots and Curse Never Dying for the great perkspread picture.
