Distance fallen=0.5*gravity constant*time^2 (neglecting drag in air.

J.B.S. Haldane a Biologist once wrote:
To the mouse and any smaller animal [gravity] presents practically no dangers. You can drop a mouse down a thousand-yard mine shaft; and, on arriving at the bottom, it gets a slight shock and walks away. A rat is killed, a man is broken, a horse splashes. For the resistance presented to movement by the air is proportional to the surface of the moving object.
So fair to cut half falling damage for a Windling and double it for an Obsidiman.
Wind Catcher is a Standard Action?

Re: Wind Catcher is a Standard Action?
I think we could fairly say the falling damage happens on an Initiative of 1. That gives lots of opportunities for derring-do. Alternately immediately after the falling character's initiative.
