Can Serana be Cured?

▶

Can Serana be cured of her vampirism after finishing the Dawnguard DLC is a question many players of Skyrim have asked, and the answer is yes, it is possible to cure Serana of her vampirism by bringing her to Falion, who resides in Morthal, and he can cure her of her vampirism by performing a ritual. This process not only changes Serana’s state from a vampire to a human but also alters her abilities and interactions within the game, making her susceptible to Restoration healing spells and removing her 100% resistance to frost and poison.

General Questions

3. How long does it take for Serana to get cured? Unless you pick a despicable, self-centered response, she will immediately leave to see Falion for a cure, and for the next three days, she will stay with Falion, at which point, she will become human and return to Fort Dawnguard.
