It is my firm belief that the player should be allowed to be an idiot. This includes doing things which in some way mess up the game. To this end, I have rewritten some of the dawnguard quests to allow the player to start the questline by assaulting Serana and/or killing everyone in Castle Volkihar. However, if you choose to do the former, you will skip some dawnguard quests and have to do 6 radiant quests until the dawnguard is in a position to assault Castle Volkihar; if you also do the latter the dawnguard questline stops there and nothing after that will happen. This means you won't get armoured trolls or improved crossbows, but if your character can solo everyone in Castle Volkihar you probably don't need them. Either way, Serana will never be seen again. You will still be able to find Auriel's bow and access the Soul Cairn but you might find it a bit harder. Don't @ me saying that you can get into the soul Cairn without being Soul Trapped or a Vampire if not playing the vanilla path, I know and don't plan to change it. This mod isn't voiced, as I hate fiddling around with xVA.

The bigger fights addon adds more vampires to the initial vampire assault during a new order and makes Celann and Durak protected during that quest so they probably won't die. It also adds more vampires to a large vampire attack that occurs later if you fight Serana.

PS this mod may increase the chance of the vanilla bug where you can't kill Harkon and have to reload a save and try again. I killed Harkon multiple times via every path available in this mod, but I've never seen that bug before so idk. Just be extra sure to save before going to Castle Volkihar to kill him.

PPS I'm the only person who has tested this mod and while I'm pretty sure I got everything there could be bugs

Installation
You should be ok installing it before you reach level 10 but you may need to start a new game

Compatibility:

Compatible:
Dawnguard Tweaks and Enhancements Lite

Patch Provided:
Runic Dawnguard - Sepmodarated Lost Relic Questline

Not Compatible:
Dawnguard Tweaks and Enhancements
Anything else that affects Dawnguard quests and isn't mentioned
Probably anything that has a conflict with any of my asset files


Not Sure
I edited Harkon to stop him shouting SERANA YOUR OWN FATHER when he dies. This might break compatibility with mods that edit his appearance. However, making a patch for that would be trivial in xedit or if you allow such a mod to overwrite my changes to him then the only consequence would be a voice line that doesn't match.
