What happens if I bring Serana to Fort Dawnguard?

If you take Serana to Fort Dawnguard instead of her home (Castle Volkihar) at the start of the Dawnguard questline, she'll refuse to enter, saying she dislikes the place and will wait outside. You can then go inside and talk to Isran, who tells you to play along with her, escort her home (Castle Volkihar), and investigate the vampires' motives, leading to the main quest progression. Taking her to Fort Dawnguard first is a slight deviation, but the game funnels you back to the main path to meet Harkon.

Can you still go to the Soul Cairn as a Dawnguard?

Yes, as a Dawnguard member, you must go to the Soul Cairn to progress the main quest, and you can enter either by having Serana partially soul-trap you (temporary penalty) or by becoming a Vampire Lord, though the latter requires a cure to continue the Dawnguard questline. The soul-trap method lets you keep your stats normal by finding your soul gem, making it the preferred path for most Dawnguard players.

Should I become a vampire or let Serana Soul trap me?

For most players, letting Serana soul trap you (partial soul trap) is the better choice, as it's a minor debuff in the Soul Cairn you can recover from, while becoming a Vampire Lord locks you into vampirism (unless cured), potentially hindering the Dawnguard questline and causing issues if you want to remain mortal or a Werewolf; you can always become a Vampire Lord later if you want, even after the main quest.

Is it better to side with vampires or Dawnguard?

Choosing between Dawnguard or Vampire in Skyrim's DLC depends on your playstyle: Dawnguard offers powerful crossbows, unique sun-based spells, trolls, and a focus on traditional vampire hunting, while Vampires provide the potent Vampire Lord form with unique powers, vampire-specific jewelry, and a darker roleplaying experience, though becoming a vampire early can alienate Dawnguard members and vendors. You can even join the Vampires later as a Dawnguard member for a mix of rewards, but expect bugs with Dawnguard interactions.

Can you still become a Vampire Lord if you refuse Harkon?

Yes, you absolutely can become a Vampire Lord even after refusing Harkon's offer; you just need to get turned by Serana later in the questline or after completing it, either during "Chasing Echoes," "Kindred Judgement," or as a follower, as long as she hasn't been cured of her vampirism. This allows you to get the Vampire Lord form and powers without siding with Harkon initially, though it might affect your relationship with the Dawnguard if you're actively helping them.
