Safe fall

Safe fall was a basic alteration spell similar to the feather fall spell, but with more versatility. This spell was created by the famed wizard Darsson Spellmaker.

Effects
This spell slowed the falling rate of any solid object or living creatures within its area of effect, which could be as large as 100 square feet. Safe fall also deflected any missiles passing through the area.

In order for this spell to work, the invisible sheet created needed to be anchored to at least two solid points of contact that were diametrically opposed. Opposite walls usually sufficed for the anchor points.

The safe fall spell eliminated inertia in either a horizontal or vertical plane. The vertical effect was used to prevent missiles from passing through the invisible barrier.

Components
In addition to verbal and somatic components, this spell required a single square inch of a closely woven net to cast.
