This is an HD retexture of the mage mantel of the champion armor (male only). I also adjusted the specularity of Hawke's arm so it won't look so shiny and metallic.

This is a retexture of the mage champion armor. I couldn't stand how shiny Hawke's arm was in the mantle of the champion armor, espcially if he has darker skin, so I made edits to the textures to make them higher definition and to control the strange specularity. I added a few personal touches as well. My Hawke is a blood mage so I added blood splatter to the end of the robe and darkened the blood on his arm. My Hawke has dark skin so I also adjusted the skin tone on the arm to better match, it should still look fine on fairer skin. This mod is for male hawke only. If you're looking for an HD mantel of the champion mod for female Hawke, use the mod by @Lesbianbear tagged below.
