lol I also immediately thought of the Scroll of Icarian Flight.

From what I can find, there's two unique magic items that can grant slowfall. He may not have had access to them. Though I've heard it has a pretty powerful crafting system, so you could probably make them as needed?

he's correct though, at least as far as i can tell with rules as written. you'd at least need an athletics check or dex saveHe is. There's even a Jeremy Crawford post from 2015 saying that he'd only consider fall damage to be for falls farther than however high you jumped, but they didn't change it in the 2024 update. Harengons actually don't even need magic to run into this issue, they can just jump high enough to injure themselves as of level 9

I learned a similar lesson without the scrolls. Spent way too much time buffing alchemy and ended up with lots of game-breaking potions. My acrobatics buff potion was astronomically powerful and lasted practically forever, so my character launched into orbit and just never came down.

Fortunately air resistance is a thing, so you don't fly off into space

Yeah, that seems a bit young to me. My mom introduced me to it at a relatively young age, but I'm pretty sure I was older than six.

I'd be more afraid of an anti-gravity belt that *is* an anti-inertia belt. It would reverse gravity, which would normally cause you to fall up, except it also reverses your inertia so you still go down. But if you push on the floor, the floor will push back up on you, which will cause you to accelerate towards the floor. You'd probably end up fused into it. I'm really not seeing how one that isn't an anti-inertia belt is a problem, besides breaking general relativity. If you turn the anti-gravity way up the acceleration could kill you, but I'd think of that as too much anti-gravity instead of lack of inertial dampening.I think its not about reversing the direction of inertia but more of a "you keep your speed when activating/deactivating the belt, just in the other direction". You can't use it to cancel fall damage by reversing gravity for 0.1sec before touching the ground because you also reverse your falling speed when you reverse gravity.
