Yes. The tail bones are hierarchy extensions attached to the pelvis. Standard UE5 animations will play back seamlessly on the core body hierarchy while the tail is handled dynamically via physics simulation or dedicated animation layers.

The included BP_LeaderPose uses Unreal Engine's built-in Leader Pose Component. When you equip modular parts (like Tunic or Pants) onto the main character, they automatically sync their animation state to the primary body mesh without needing individual animation blueprints.

Inside the provided Material Instances, simply tick the "Use Color Mask" parameter checkbox. You can then use the color picker inputs to independently tint the primary fur, underbelly, leather, fur trim, and rope details using the desaturated texture maps as your base.
