Explanation: |
When an opponent attempts to damage you by throwing you to the ground, instead of resisting, you will allow it, slapping the ground when you land. This slap must be synchronized with the landing of your body to the earth, dispersing, sometimes nullifying, damages caused by the impact.
Also: If successful, you can also remain defensive and able to preform a counter technique.
When Break-fall is preformed successfully, physical damage taken will be negated by 1-D6 per 2 levels.
When Break-fall is preformed successfully, if you can win an initiative roll, you may continue attempting defensive maneuvers against your opponent unless damage has occurred that exceeds your constitution score. |
Hand Movement: | Yes. The hands are used, not to stop your fall, but to hang onto your opponent in a manner that slows your fall and keep you inside the safest part of the throw (the closer you are to your opponent when being thrown, the less force of the fall you will be impacted with). The other hand will slap the ground as your body lands in a relaxed manner, thus helping to disperse damage that would otherwise be inflicted upon you. |
