[QUOTE="mvincent, post: 3314834, member: 27034"] From the 3.5 FAQ: [I][SIZE=1]"In general, characters don’t land on their feet after falling; however, the Sage could see some reasonable exceptions: • A character who jumps down intentionally and takes no damage because of a successful Jump check (see the Jump skill). • A character who jumps or falls down and takes no damage because of a successful Tumble check (see the Tumble skill). • A character with the slow fall ability (such as a monk) who takes no damage from a fall because of this ability. • A character under the effect of feather fall or similar effect that negates falling damage. • A character who uses the catfall power. This one is clear, as the power specifically states that the character lands on his feet no matter how far he falls. Basically, if the character has an ability that negates the damage from the fall, you could choose to say that she also lands on her feet; assuming the fall was brief enough, she should have the option to keep moving as part of the same action that took her off the edge."[/SIZE][/I] [/QUOTE]
