Arda

A dark gothic AMOLED theme for Obsidian. It's built around a medieval aesthetic, relying on warm parchment tones, burgundy accents, and manuscript-style decorative elements. Mainly made for myself, but I decided to share it with the community, because i think it looks cool.

Features

• OLED-friendly true black backgrounds
• UI animations for hover states, modals, and callouts
