📋 About This Mod
This started as a light tweak but ended up being a heavily edited version of ApolloHoo's Isshin Tengu mod. The highlights are a wolf mask I modeled in blender inspired by one in Ghost of Tsushima (even though I haven't played it yet) and a repaint of the Straw cloak to look like wolf fur. The crossed back swords and edited kingfisher sword aren't really related to this mod. The former are a callback to Wolf's sword collecting days and the latter, I just like the worn, jagged look of. Both included as optional files. Had this for a while and thought I'd share.
Installation
-Extract Contents and place in "/mods/parts" folder
Known Issues
-Normal maps on the mask might be a little bit fucky depending on light source (I'm an amateur after all)
-In the Return ending, the torso robe is invisible for like 2 seconds. No idea what causes this. I've only got that and the shura ending so I'm not sure about others.
Special Thanks to ApolloHoo for the Tengu Mod (I've tried to message you multiple times for permission but could never reach you so I just went with it.)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,691 endorsements and nearly 90k downloads — clearly a look players love.
- Simple cosmetic change that fits the game's tone without altering gameplay.
- Still relevant for players who want a grittier Wolf, even if it hasn't been updated recently.
⚠️ Cons
- No detailed description provided by the author — you're going in blind on what exactly changes.
- Last updated in 2022, so it may not be compatible with the latest Sekiro patches or mod loaders.
- Purely cosmetic — if you're looking for new weapons or gameplay tweaks, this isn't it.
For Sekiro players who want to give Wolf a more battle-worn, blood-soaked look that matches the game's harsh world. If you're into lore-friendly cosmetics and don't mind a simple visual tweak, this is for you. Skip if you want gameplay changes or if you're worried about mod compatibility with the latest version.

- Check if your game version matches the mod's last update (September 2022) to avoid potential issues.
- If you're using a mod manager, preview the mod in-game to see if the blood effect looks right on your settings.
