A prophecy from the Elder Scrolls foretold the discovery of Auriel's Bow.

For more details (and pictures) of what awaits you in Dawnguard, check out our preview.Dawnguard's main story line delves into the conflict between a vampire faction and the Dawnguard, a newly reformed fighting force dedicated to eliminating vampires from the world. Dawnguard promises an extra 10 to 20 hours of gameplay, and is available for 1600 Microsoft points now. There's no news yet of when the content will become available on PS3 and PC, though some are claiming Xbox 360 exclusivity will only last a month. Vampire Lords and Werewolves will be getting unique skill trees, while new Legendary Dragons are also slated to appear. In addition to this, new locations will be available alongside new shouts, and players will get the ability to change their character's facial appearance through Riften's Ratways. The downside is you'll take damage during the day, so will probably want to stay confined to your Castle Volkihar headquarters while the sun is out. This will allow you to hover, adopt a demonic form and raise the dead. If, on the other hand, you're adverse to sunlight and having a soul, then you can opt to become a Vampire Lord instead.

Doing so will net you access to a new crossbow weapon, the ability to summon trolls to fight for you, and access to their headquarters the appropriately named Fort Dawnguard. The expansion's name comes from the Vampire Hunters the player may join, the Dawnguard. The new content offered in the Dawnguard package focuses on the return of an ancient vampire named Harkon, who wishes to use the powers of the Elder Scrolls to blot out the sun, turning Tamriel into a playground for those who sleep all day and have no tans.
