Hern

Hern is a Nord vampire living at the Half-Moon Mill with Hert, his vampire wife.
==Interactions==
He is the target for the Dark Brotherhood quest "Contract: Kill Hern." There is also a chance that Hern will feed the Ebony Blade as a sacrifice to make it stronger, if he is killed with it.
==Battle behavior==
Hern and Hert do not use Vampiric Drain, when attacking. This makes it less likely to contract Sanguinaire Vampiris from fighting them. Because Hern is a vampire, destruction spells and enchanted weapons dealing Fire Damage are especially effective.
==Quests==
*Contract: Kill Hern - Kill Hern and then report back to Nazir.
*Hired Muscle - intimidate Hern into a brawl.
*Rescue Mission - Rescue Hern from Lost Echo Cave
==Dialogue==
===Contract: Kill Hern===
"Well now. What have we here? A lost little lamb?"
:I know what you are, nightspawn. "Well then, you won't be leaving here alive!"
:Assassin versus vampire. A fight for the ages. "Ah, so the Brotherhood has come for old Hern, has it? Well then, let us meet as equals."
:(Remain silent) "Hmph. Don't say much, but there's a strange aura about you. You walk in the shadow of death... Leave here. Leave here and never return."
==Quotes==
*"You really don't want to be loitering here, stranger."
*"Oh my, a guest!"
*"Please, make yourself at home!"
*"Lone travelers can find these woods a little treacherous."
*"We've been looking for someone to join us in a hunt."
==Bugs==
* During the Rescue Mission to rescue him from Lost Echo Cave, Hern will not appear. Instead, the quest arrow will hover over the ground between a dead bandit and a dead Imperial. Loading previous saves does not fix this. There is no known fix.
