Restrictions

If you have a rank 3 Hooves mutation or the Talons mutation, you may not wear boots. Characters with fewer ranks of those mutations can freely wear boots, but doing so will disable the associated auxiliary attack.

Merfolk may wear boots, but they will merge into their tail when they enter water.

The following species can never wear boots:

Nagas and Armataurs may wear barding in their feet slot instead.
