Unnatural Selection

Navigate the Unnatural Selection quest in Vampyr. Learn how to report to Lord Redgrave, find hints for key characters, and enter Aloysius Dawson's mansion.

Alright, let's dive into the 'Unnatural Selection' part of Vampyr. This is where things start to get a bit more involved, so stick with me and we'll get through it smoothly.

First things first, you'll want to swing by Calhoun's Shop. He's expanded his inventory, so keep an eye out for Sodium Hydroxide and White Phosphorus. These are super useful for adding poison and fire damage to your guns, which can really make a difference in tougher fights. Don't forget to check in with Rakesh Chadana at Pembroke Hospital too – he's also got Sodium Hydroxide and White Phosphorus in stock. While you're there, Dr. Swansea might have some new dialogue options for you. If you decide to rest, you can stock up even more, potentially getting five of each item. I found myself at level 26 with 3300XP around this point, and I put a point into Body Condition.

Next up, head over to the Ascalon Club. You can find Lady Ashbury on the ground floor if you want to chat. Once you're upstairs, Lord Redgrave himself will give you a task: you need to turn Aloysius Dawson into an Ekon. After that, head back downstairs. Lady Ashbury will likely have some strong opinions about turning someone like Dawson, so be prepared for that conversation.

Now, we need to get to the Temple Church entrance. You should already have access to the district. Just head through Temple Garden, then Temple Covered Market, and through the gate that leads to Temple Church.

Once you're there, pop into Carolyn Price's shop. Talk to her and select the dialogue option "Do you know Aloysius Dawson?" This will unlock a hint for him, making your next steps easier.

Keep an eye out for a guy in a fedora – that's Charles Albright. If you ignored him earlier, you'll now have a new dialogue option when you speak to him: "I work for the Ascalon Club." Choose this, and then follow up with "Your life in London?" / "Tell me about the neighbourhood?" / "What killer?" This sequence will unlock a hint for Albright.

Your next objective is to find Usher Talltree. He's hanging out in the church crypt. Speak with him and ask about Aloysius Dawson to get Dawson's second hint.

Finally, it's time to enter Aloysius Dawson's mansion. Sometimes the quest marker can be a bit wonky here, so here's what you do: head through the Hideout and take down the Priwen guards waiting in the alley just beyond. Once they're dealt with, make your way through the ornate gates, and you'll find yourself at Dawson's mansion entrance. Go on in!
