I took the default Breeze Light theme and made all the panel related stuff a slightly transparent black.
For Plasma 5.21, I recommend changing the panel padding to 0 to fix the dead space around the widgets.
The "AlphaBlack Control" widget (https://store.kde.org/p/1237963/) will be automatically installed to quickly change the theme's colors or the panel transparency. It should appear in the system tray after relogging with widgets unlocked.
* [Pager] I removed the transparent blue fill on the active desktop in the pager, instead using just a white outline to show which is selected (similar to dexpot).
* [Tasks] Don't use a solid fill on minimized tasks.
After installing, run the following to set the panel / breeze window border colors.
python3 ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/breeze-alphablack/desktoptheme.py set theme.accentColor 0,0,0

v19 - February 25 2021 1 month ago
* Refactor `panel-background.svg` to reuse the `dialog/background.svg`.
* Add thick margins to the panel svg to support Plasma 5.21's Margin Separator widgets. A 24px panel will have a 1px thick margin. A 30px panel will have a 4px thick margin. A 38px panel will have a 8px thick margin.

v18 - December 11 2020 4 months ago
* Fix pale popups caused by the Background Contrast Desktop Effect (Issue #21). Added `ContrastEffect` properties in `metadata.desktop` in an attempt to fix it, however the proper fix was to ship a pre-generated `dialogs/background.svg`.
* Refactor `background.svg` to add `dialog.radius` which doesn't really work well.
* Fix `resettitlebarcolors` mentioned in AlphaBlackControl's Issue 2.
* Only use blue shifted DecorationFocus for Complementary colors (Issue #20)
* Set Header color group to fix white `plasmoidheading.svg` in Plasma 5.20
v17 - June 16 2020 10 months ago
* Added `widgets/plasmoidheading.svg` to show the solid notification heading like Breeze. It's only displayed if the current theme has the svg, it does not inherit this svg.
* Removed all deprecated `set___color.py` scripts. Use the `desktoptheme.py` subcommands.
v16 - March 15 2020 1 year ago
* Move `set___color.py` etc into `desktoptheme.py` as subcommands. Eg: `python3 desktoptheme.py set dialog.opacity 0.7`. The existing scripts are deprecated and will be removed in the next version.
* Add ability to set dialog padding with `python3 desktoptheme.py set dialog.padding 2`. Note that you need to close a popup and reopen it to see the change in padding. You may need to run the command a few times for it to take effect.
v15 - March 17 2019 2 years ago
* Cleanup the desktop widget background svg coordinates (`widget/background.svg`).
* Use Breeze's rectangle new rounded corner popup dialog svg from KDE Frameworks 5.56.
* Fix the dialog popup color (when using a custom opacity) broken by the Qt 5.12.2 update. The default dialog popups and tooltips will be fixed in KDE Frameworks 5.56.2 or 5.57.0.
v14 - December 15 2018 2 years ago
* Use Breeze's rectangle corner popup svg. Somewhere along the line this theme ended up using a different svg with round corners for some reason.
* Add `sethighlightcolor.py` to set the selection/highlight color.
v13 - October 12 2018 2 years ago
* Hide the panel shadow when the panel opacity is set below 30% (`0.3`).
* Update the desktop widget background to use the same look as breeze.
* Add `settextcolor.py` to change the panel/widget/titlebar text color.
* Fix `resettitlebarcolor.py` not working for color schemes installed in the home directory (`~/.local/share/color-scheme/`. It previously only worked for color schemes in the root directory (`/usr/share/color-scheme/`). This fix also scans all color schemes when the color scheme filename is not the typical `{ColorSchemeName}.colors` (Eg: "Breeze Solarized Light" uses "BreezeSolarizedLight.colors").
* Add `resettodefaults.py` script to revert all changes.
v12 - July 26 2018 2 years ago
* Add settitlebarcolor.py and resettitlebarcolor.py to easily reset the titlebar color. v3 of the widget has buttons that will run these scripts.
v11 - June 24 2018 2 years ago
* Remove the opache and transparent folders which don't appear to do anything (they aren't overriding breeze).
* Add new templates + scripts to set the panel popups/dialog opacity, and the desktop widget opacity. The new scripts are setdialogopacity.py and setwidgetopacity.py. Both work the same as setpanelopacity.py.
v10 - May 29 2018 2 years ago
* Follow color scheme when compositor is off. Gets rid of white outline when compositor is off.
* Add breeze's widgets/tabbar.svg, as Plasma doesn't allow it to "inherit" this svg. This fixes/adds the "popup is open" blue line.
* Add alternative tasks.svg where the line is on the outside/edge of the screen line Windows 10. Use the config widget, or the settasksvg.py script, to change to it.
* "Unzip" the svgz into svg, and cleanup the xml.
v9 - February 20 2017 4 years ago
* Fix panel opacity script so it can be run anywhere.
v8 - January 21 2017 4 years ago
* Add a script to set the panel opacity.
v7 4 years ago
* Fix the minimized tasks svg (showed nothing instead of looking like a "normal" task)
* Use a hardcoded #f67400 orange for highlighted tasks instead of the NeutralText color from the color scheme.
v6 4 years ago
* Use the Breeze 5.8 tasks.svg (thinner line), but with minimized tasks looking the same as a normal task.
v5 4 years ago
* Add script to change the color.
4 years ago
v3 - June 16 2016
* Theme progressbar in tasks.
v2 - June 15 2016
* Got rid of the white line at the top of the panel
* Got rid of the pink spot in the pager

Can you go to ~/.local/share/plasma/ and tell me what folders and subfolders exist?
~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/
~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/breeze-alphablack/
~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/
~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.github.zren.tiledmenu/
~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/
~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.github.zren.animatedhue/
~/.local/share/wallpapers/
~/.local/share/wallpapers/EarthPlasma.png
Once you have, try copying the following to the Desktop folder so you can restore them or compare them later:
~/.config/plasmarc
~/.config/plasmashellrc
~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc
~/.local/share/plasma/
~/.local/share/wallpapers/
Then go to System Settings > Global Theme > Breeze
Check "Use desktop layout from theme"
Click Apply
It should reset your entire panel layout. Not sure if it'll reset the Desktop Wallpaper containment however.

It should look the same as Breeze and Breeze Dark.
The Oxygen theme has rounded corners.
You could edit the SVGs located at ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/ with Inkscape. You could also copy the SVGs from breeze located at /usr/share/plasma/desktoptheme/ under the "default" folder.
