Oblivion:Afflicted Brethren

The Afflicted Brethren are five vampires found in Gutted Mine. They were once worshippers of Azura, and were infected with vampirism when they slew a powerful vampire named 'Dratik'. Azura will enlist your support in "releasing" them from their curse as part of her quest. Although the names of all five vampires is "Afflicted Brethren", one of them carries a Worn, Faded Note, which can be used to work out which was which from the names and races.

All the afflicted possess a set of unique abilities to make them especially tricky opponents:

Bugs

• All five brethren carry a portion of Vampire Dust in their inventories, unlike most Vampires whose Vampire Dust only appears after their death. Therefore, the brethrens' dust can be pickpocketed from them before they die. If this happens, another sample does not appear on their bodies when they are killed.
