📋 About This Mod
4thUnknown Dark Brotherhood Armor is an incredible modern recreation of the Dark Brotherhood Armor from the third era (oblivion), so i decided to replace the Ancient Shrouded Armor found in Hag's End to finally live up to its given name of "Ancient" and make it substantially more unique.
This mod only replaces the Ancient shrouded armor variant instead of all the dark brotherhood armor.
