About this mod
Obsolete until/if I update files. Superior version released as Master Thief Armor AIO.

I was inspired by TheMightyArchaon's armor for Oldrim when I discovered that it was male only and both files were the same 100 weight. After many months of seeking permission for textures, permission for the the HDT cape, not getting a response for texture use, rebuilding the entire project from the beginning with zap sliders so that the meshes could use textures without requiring permission, fighting with getting the FOMOD to include the ESP files, and editing the FOMODs in an attempt to be comprehensible... I have finally completed the Master Thief armor on this day, my birthday. I hope you enjoy it.

Obsolete. Many things that need fixed. Superior title released 10-30-2021 as Master Thief Armor AIO

This mod features,
Master Thief Armor, which is obviously a blend of the Thieves Guild Leader and Nightingale armors
The armor is obtained by defeating the boss of the Thieves Guild quest who is wearing it during the final confrontation
I placed the armor in his Outfit file so that his character would remain untouched for anyone who has a face altering mod
The mask I placed separate in a satchel *on the floor left (opposite) of the big book the statue is holding* to avoid conflict with face altering mods
He will be wearing Guild Leader armor within the Cistern and the Master Thief armor only during the final stage
Three leveled armors that all look the same but have progressive stats making it more viable for end game users
All three levels are temperable
Lvl 1 - 35 has an armor rating of 37 on the chest piece which is one less than Ivory armor
Lvl 36 - 45 has an armor rating of 39 on the chest piece which is equivalent of Stalhrim armor
Lvl 46 - UP has an armor rating of 41 on the chest piece which is the equivalent of Dragonskin armor
(All of the equipment is leveled, I just didn't want to make this page extremely long with technical babble)
Level one can be upgraded to level two at a forge when you reach level 36 while level two can be upgraded to level three when you reach level 46
Upgrading at a forge only requires that you have the armor and the materials in your inventory
MasterThief Set Bonus when four or more Keyword Master Thief items are equipped

BodySlide Data
The HDT cape I created the armor around is by Altair155 which can be found at
Nightingale Armor Replacer Cape HDT-SMP (Female CBBE) and Male
I recommend downloading his files for the Nightingale armor, the meshes provided in this mod are modified to fit the Master Thief armor only
Anyone using HDT should already expect some clipping but I think I removed most of it and am quite happy with the end result.
The Custom Dark Thieves Guild Leader textures were created around FrankFamily's
Frankly HD Thieves Guild Armors
These files are REQUIRED if you use the optional Custom Darker textures
None of the Normal Maps are included with this mod
The Custom Dark Nightingale and Torn Scarf textures were created around User_2039153's
Nightingale Hi-res Retex with Torn Scarf and Variants
These files are REQUIRED if you use the optional Custom Darker textures
None of the Normal Maps are included with this mod
Included BodySlide Data in the miscellaneous section. The files have been organized into their respective group from the FOMODs but you will have to manually open the zip file and select the proper one. Only one can be used, they all share the same name and file structure so each one will replace the last. The HDT cape is not included because, one, it doesn't belong to me but to Altair155, and two, Bodyslide will warp the cape and make it look funky. The best option would be to build your armor in BodySlide and then touch up the cape to the best of your ability to hide clipping.
This is compatible with everything, to the best of my knowledge, except any mod that alters the ThievesGuildMercerOutfitKillType Outfit file
***There is one problem!***
I don't believe it is a major issue but be aware that you should not change body weight while wearing the female HDT Cape armor or the cape will bug out and possibly CTD. If you wish to change your body type, remove the armor, change your weight, and put it back on
