📋 About This Mod

For Frosty 1. 0. 6. 2 or higher.

I decided to make some edits to the Fugitive's Mantle in DAI, as I don't really like the vanilla blue color.

- Retextured and recolored the mantle;

- Remade the collar with a better fur texture;

- Remade the gold/silver chantry symbols on the collar, back and coattails;

- Copied the AI-upscaled leather belts from the Fugitive's Mantle Retro DA2.

The base mod replaces the Mercenary Coat (Prologue Outfit) for HM HF.

It does NOT affect the NPCs who wear the Fugitive's Mantle, or the rogue's Templar Armor you craft in game.

Also available for mage M/F Hawke.

New "Tints and Swaps" Patch:

- Swaps Skyhold PJs and Formal Attire for the Inquisitor;

- New textures to work with DAI's native armor tinting;

- New tinting schemes for Prologue Outfit, Skyhold PJs and Formal Attire.

KNOWN BUGS:

- The right shoulder plate may obscure the Inquisitor's face during certain cutscenes.

- HM HF are separated files as they require different textures to work correctly.

- The shadow is broken because it's the only way to keep the vanilla animation of the coattails.

- To wear the mantle at Skyhold or the Winter Palace (without the new patch), you need the optional files at Frosty King Alistair Outfit for all the Inquisitors for Qunari Human Dwarf and Elf.

- To avoid possible freezes in Trespasser, you need DAI Formal WEWH Frosty Texture Glitch Fix.

- To craft the mantle as a combat armor, you can try Formal Attire or Craftable Skyhold PJ Recipes for Frosty.

Updated the normal maps and fixed HF.

Now Leliana and Josephine can wear the mantle too. The right shoulder plate has been removed for them.

If Leliana wore the mantle in DAO, or the HoF romanced her while wearing the mantle, NEW HEADCANON: the HoF gave Leliana his/her old armor before he/she left.

The fur texture for the new collar is from A seamless soft white fur texture.

The gold/silver chantry symbols use the pattern of Image by rawpixel.com on Freepik.

The new belts are from DAO's Resources for Certain Interested Parties (Resource Compilation Pack) by HollownessDevoured.

It took a long time to finish this mod as there was much to learn.

I'd like to thank Dmitrias and Padme4000 for their help.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

An overhaul of the rogue's Templar Armor, the Fugitive's Mantle, for Dragon Age: Inquisition. Adds new looks for mage Hawke (male/female), Leliana, and Josephine, plus variants for Prologue, Skyhold PJs, and Formal Attire. A niche cosmetic mod with 31 endorsements, last updated October 2024.

✨ Key Features

Overhauls the Fugitive's Mantle armor for rogue characters.
Available for mage male and female Hawke, Leliana, and Josephine.
Includes variants for Prologue Armor, Skyhold PJs, and Formal Attire.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Covers multiple characters and outfit slots, giving you more bang for your buck.
  • Recent update (October 2024) means it's likely compatible with current game patches.
  • Small but dedicated following (31 endorsements) suggests it works as advertised.

⚠️ Cons

  • Low endorsement count (31) means it's not widely tested—expect potential bugs.
  • Only affects the Fugitive's Mantle—if you don't use that armor, this mod is useless.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Dragon Age: Inquisition players who want to customize the look of Hawke, Leliana, or Josephine, especially if you're tired of the default Fugitive's Mantle. Skip if you're looking for new armor stats or broader cosmetic changes—this is purely a visual overhaul.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Frosty Mod Manager to avoid conflicts and make uninstalling easier.
  • Make sure to load this mod after any other mods that affect the same outfits to ensure it takes priority.
  • If you're using the Prologue variant, test it early in the game to confirm it appears correctly.
