Also in that lore, a vampire can't drain the last drop of a victim or else they also take in that persons death and die. If a Vampire feeds from a dead body, they take in that persons death into themselves and they die. However, becoming a lycanthrope is permanent unless you progress through the companions and it has its own costs and benefits.That was in Anne Rice's 'Interview With The Vampire' when Lestat drank from a dead body and became weak enough to put him to sleep for centuries by Louis. At later stages, however, it is still possible to cure yourself by resorting to Lycanthropy or doing the quest Rising at Dawn. If you rid the disease early on before the onset of symptoms, then a simple Cure Disease will do the trick or going to temples in towns and using the altar. Choose to pickpocket and you will further be given the option to ' Pickpocket' or 'Feed.' Choose to feed and the deed will be done without disturbing the sleeping target. Sneak into their homes, creep up behind them while they sleep and, while crouching, the option to ' Pickpocket' should appear. You can feed only on sleeping humans, which you can find in most towns. In order to regress to earlier stages of vampirism, you will need to feed. Once afflicted with Vampirism, you will slowly progress through the four stages, eventually becoming 'blood-starved.' At this stage in the disease, most people will not talk with you and will instead attack you. Stealth-type characters profit the most from the bonuses of vampirism, but the disadvantages are rather inconvenient for other character archetypes. Consequently, taking the form of a Vampire Lord will make the citizens hostile.) ( Note: With the addition of the Dawnguard DLC, you will no longer be treated with hostility.
