    Because no one else is doing it, I’m going to take the hit. Feather Fall in D&D 5e prevents falling damage, not fall damage. Sorry to ruin the pun, but someone had to.

      You did not successfully ruin the pun, as it has been made clear it does not live or die by the Ing.

      However, you did ruin the mood. I banish you to a lower tier.

        Hey, at least 16 people enjoyed my contribution, and I think I got some down votes so more than that. I think I did fine. Also, banishment only lasts for 1 minute, so I’m back.

      The English language still backs it up. If you fall, you are falling. Simply because there is an ing missing from the text of a thing not said in the joke doesn’t mean that the joke doesn’t work. On top of that there’s the whole part of how the DM is God in a game, not the DMG or the rule book.

      You didn’t ruin anything. Just weirdly pedantic for no reason
