The prosthetic arm of the Black Swordsman.

NOTICE
As of the 1.0 version of this mod:

  • Only works for male characters. Considering this is Guts' arm and that this was a commission, I'm unsure if I'll ever make a female version.
  • There is a bandage wrap around the wrist of the armor, due to technical constraints. For some reason, hiding the arm hides everything except for the skin at the wrist, so the only way to fix this is to cover it up with something.

If you point these issues out to me as bugs in the comments or bugs section, I will point and laugh.


In the world of Berserk, the Black Swordsman is a name known across the lands. However, it is not a name well received, for this beast of a man has slain countless of the King's soldiers, in the name of his blasphemy. Those that know of him, fear him. But those that know him, respect him.

This is only half the story, as the Black Swordsman was once a respected mercenary that brought ends to countless battles alongside his commander Griffith. Once Griffith fell from the graces of the King and was subsequently tortured, one faithful day led to the disappearance of the Band of the Hawk, with the Black Swordsman being the only known survivor.

Most speculate he was the source of the disappearance, and slaughtered his fellow comrades, citing his newly lost eye and arm as proof. Others know the man wouldn't betray his men. What remains of the man is a haunted shell of what he once was, now protected by blackened iron. The lost arm, now replaced with a formidable weapon.



Currently, the prosthetic only exists for the left arm. As this was done as a commission for Romo, it is unlikely I'll add onto the mod or change much of anything.

It's also worth noting that this is just armor. There are no abilities tied to the arm, and it only acts as an armored replacement for the left arm. Armor detection should be fully functional.

The arm takes up both the Left Glove and Shirt slot, as is needed to properly hide the arm. As such, some clothing will not be able to be worn with the armor. I may add more mods later that are compatible with such prosthetics.

Due to the technical limitations of B&S, the only way to hide the arm is to hide both arms, and thus I've had to replace the missing arms with bandages. Hopefully a fix can be found in the future, but for now this is the best that can be done.

I don't mod much anymore, aside from the odd commission or two. Expect to see a few more armors from me before going dark until Warpfrog's next game.


  • There is a bandage covering the wrist of all arms. Due to technical limitations of the armor system, hiding the arms hides everything except for a patch of skin on the wrist, of which the only way to fix is to hide it with clothing.
  • As was mentioned before, hiding parts of the arms hide it on both arms, meaning the missing arms have been replaced with bandages.
  • The armor only currently works for males.
  • The arms can only block attacks with armor detection turned on, as the arms currently function as plate armor.
  • There is a small gap on the hand in which armor detection does not function properly. Should not cause many issues.
