Vampirism is an affliction that doesn't plague too many characters in Oblivion Remastered, but it does come with its own benefits and restrictions. As a vampire, you'll be constantly harmed by the sun and forced to only wander Cyrodiil during the nighttime hours. Being a vampire also comes with perks, such as various resistances, abilities, and other strengths, so you have to weigh the pros and cons to decide if you want to become or remain a vampire.
Of course, becoming a vampire isn't always the player's choice in Oblivion Remastered. There are a couple of ways to become a creature of the night, and if you don't want to be a vampire, then you'll need to know how to cure the affliction and return to a regular being. For those of you who want to become a vampire but don't know how, you'll need to understand the different ways to acquire the affliction.
How to Become a Vampire in Oblivion Remastered
First up, let's go over the main ways you can become a vampire in Oblivion Remastered. The primary way to acquire vampirism is by getting bitten by a vampire, which can either be a mutual exchange of blood or a situation that you didn't plan.
We can start with the most straightforward way to become a vampire, which involves you allowing a specific vampire to bite you, immediately turning you into a creature of the night. The vampire that does this for you is named Vicente Valtieri, and he is a Breton whom you'll report to for missions once you join the Dark Brotherhood.

To get bitten by Vicente Valtieri, you'll need to prove your worth to him by completing several Dark Brotherhood contracts and reporting back to him with successful news. Your disposition with Vicente Valtieri also needs to be above 30 for him to ask, so you can check that by using the persuasion wheel in dialogue with him.
