Detailed Walkthrough

Rumors

If you ask around Ald'ruhn for rumors (such as in the Mages Guild) you'll learn that Sanvyn Llethri, in the Llethri Manor Bedrooms in the Manor District, wishes to become a vampire.

The Boy Who Would Be Undead

First, speak to Sanvyn's mother, Fathasa, who will be one of the few regular people that will tolerate speaking with you. Fathasa will say that her son thinks that vampirism is the way to achieve power and respect and that she wishes for you to tell him otherwise.

Convince the boy that he is foolish

Speak with Sanvyn, just down the hall, using the topic "submit myself". Choose the responses "You are a foolish boy", "You are a ridiculous young man", "Stupid child", "You are too weak to be a vampire", and "You know nothing". Each insult will lower his disposition and increase his option to fight, so by the last insult he will most likely attack you. If you are so charming that he does not attack, just taunt him until he does. At this point, you should remember his mother's words and actually let the boy win ... yes, this will be hard and contrary to most people's instinct, but don't fight back. (If you're a powerful warrior, it's quite easy to kill him in one blow. Also, it is advisable for powerful warriors to unequip their armor since his dagger may break before the fight is over.) Once your health has been halved, Sanvyn will declare himself the winner, deciding that his opinion about vampires was indeed wrong.

Claim your useful reward

Return to Fathasa to receive her enchanted ring (protects against fire).

Notes

• Sanvyn will stop attacking you once your health has reached half of whatever it was when you first met him, not necessarily half of your total if you went to him less than fully-healed. Thus, if you are a high level character with lots of health, you can expedite the process by simply doing this quest while already wounded. The simplest way to do this of course is to just sit out in the sun for a bit before going in.
• His dagger can do up to 12 physical and 20 Fire Damage, compounded by your Vampiric Weakness to Fire, so if you are a very low level character, make sure you can take at least a few hits from that without dying.
• The responses above each cause Sanvyn to lose 7 points of disposition and increase his Fight attribute by 5 for a total of -35 and +25 respectively. The alternative in each case lowers his disposition by 5 and increases his fight by 2.
