Cure Vampirism Before It’s Too Late
So, you got scratched by a vampire, huh? That “You’ve contracted Porphyric Hemophilia” message might not seem like a big deal—but you’ve got three in-game days before you officially join the undead club.
Cure Vampirism in Oblivion Remastered, Quick Fixes:
Head to any Chapel and use the Altar of the Nine. Boom, you’re healed.
Got a Cure Disease potion in your bag? Chug it.
No potion? Visit Claudette Perrick at The Gilded Carafe in the Imperial City Market District and grab one for around 270 Gold (or haggle it down).
Just don’t sleep after day three—because once you do, you’ll get that dreaded long message saying you're officially a vampire. Yikes.
What If You're Already a Vampire?
Too late? Already turned? Alright, deep breaths. It’s not game over—but it’s gonna take some work.
As a vampire:
You’ll burn in sunlight, unless you’ve fed.
Feeding = biting sleeping NPCs at night. Homeless NPCs are your best bet if doors are locked.
You'll also lose access to some interactions, and people might react differently.
Here’s how to start the cure quest:
Step-by-Step Cure:
Go to the Arcane University (south of the Imperial City).
Talk to Raminus Polus and ask about a cure.
He’ll send you to Count Hassildor in Skingrad.
Travel to Castle Skingrad, go right, and talk to Hal-Liurz, the Count’s steward.
She’ll ask you to wait—after a short delay, you’ll meet the Count.
Cure Vampirism in Oblivion Remastered Quest: Time to Go Witch Hunting
Once you meet Count Janus Hassildor, he’ll share a personal story about his wife wanting a cure. Accept his quest, and boom—you’re on a mission.
Find the Witch:
Head south of Cheydinhal to a place called Drakelowe.
Meet Melisande, the witch who can craft the cure.
She wants something in return: 5 empty Grand Soul Gems.
Better start collecting or hitting up some vendors!
Final Thoughts: Worth It?
Being a vampire in Oblivion Remastered is fun for a while. You get cool abilities, extra strength, and it feels badass—until you want to travel during the day or talk to NPCs without scaring them off.
If you're not into the vampire life long-term, curing it is totally doable. Just be prepared for a little questing and gem hunting.
