Vampire Lord is a new type of vampire introduced in The Elder Scrolls V: Dawnguard. Like the werewolf form, the Dragonborn can choose to take on the form of a Vampire Lord, however, the duration of the transformation is controlled by the Dragonborn, unlike the werewolf form. Vampire Lords also have several natural abilities:
- Bats - the ability to transform into a swarm of bats and fly a short distance, used mainly as a means of escape
- Vampire Sight - enhanced night vision
- Raise Dead - an ability similar to Reanimate
- Drain Life - a spell which drains the health of an enemy, manifested as a glowing red ball
