Shadowmarks inexorably seared into earth and timber by those that haunt the darkness

FEATURES
-
[]Rather than hand-carving every shadowmark, these are designed around the idea of the Thieves Guild using branding irons for smaller windows of opportunity [/]
[]The straighter lines and burned appearance reflect the wrought iron of their tools [/]
[]Normal maps feature both wood and stone variations per symbol, insuring a higher level of quality [/]
[]Color palettes were selected to match Noble Skyrim, so if you use other texture packs it might not give you the intended experience [/]
[]The new symbols are created to match the new Thieves Guild banner in Ennead Banners. As with every mod I make, they're specifically tailored to be used together, so if you use any mods I've made, this will blend seamlessly into your game.[/]
