📋 About This Mod
Thanks to CelestialZ's liberal permissions we're able to release the Black Knight Armor set! AKA Blood Dragon Armor with black textures and without the red dragon.
The textures were acquired from CelestialZ's Black Blood Dragon Armour (LE2 and LE3) texture mod. If you enjoy using these textures give CelestialZ an endorsement.

This mod does not replace or remove the existing Blood Dragon Armor.
The armor sets are available as soon as you have access to the Normandy's armory and as early as the Mars mission if you are using EGM. If you wish to 'hide' the helmet, EGM provides a feature that allows players to toggle the visibility of helmets.
Installation
The sets may be installed individually or all of them at once.
Use ME3Tweaks Mod Manager to install. Drag and drop the zip file to the manager and install (or import, then 'Apply Mod'). Importing mods has a couple of benefits including the ability to update mods directly from the Mod Manager.
Uninstallation
In ME3Tweaks Mod Manager, tap the "Manage Target" button on the upper right. Make sure the edition of the game you are targeting is selected in the drop-down list positioned on top of the tabs. Select this mod and tap disable or delete as appropriate.
This mod adds a black texture variant of the Blood Dragon Armor, removing the red dragon motif, based on CelestialZ's permissions. It's a simple cosmetic retexture for players who prefer a darker, more subdued look. With 77 endorsements and 1,453 downloads, it has a modest following.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Clean black look that fits stealth or evil characters (77 endorsements from players who dig it).
- Simple retexture—no new mechanics to learn, just drop it in and go.
- Respects the original mod's permissions, so it's safe to use alongside CelestialZ's work.
⚠️ Cons
- Only a retexture—if you want new armor stats or models, this isn't it.
- Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- No screenshots or detailed install notes in the description, so you're flying blind until you test it.
For Skyrim players who want a darker, more menacing version of the Blood Dragon Armor without the red dragon. If you're into stealth builds or just prefer black armor, this is a quick visual upgrade. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or new armor mechanics.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Blood Dragon Armor from the Dragonborn DLC, as this mod retextures that armor.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod and let it overwrite the original textures.
- Check your load order—this mod should load after any mods that alter the Blood Dragon Armor's textures.
