Boots

Boots are a form of armour worn in a character's feet slot. They provide a small amount of AC (especially when enchanted, max +2) and can have any of the following egos:

• Flight: Allows the wearer to fly
• Stealth: +50 stealth
• Rampaging: Take a free step when moving directly towards an enemy.

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:

• Armataur
• Felid
• Naga
• Octopode
• Oni
• Spriggan
• Tengu
• Troll

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