Considerations: 1/2 damage on falls (even if failed save), 1/4 damage if save is successful.

9 lives - if some sort of death's door mechanic is used (negative HP), then when a Felisian is taken into negative HP range, it will still drop unconscious normally, but will no longer lose HP for up to one hour per level. During these bonus hours, it may be healed/revived normally. If left to die a Felisian will ultimately pass after this time period expires.

Mortal enemies of most Caneins; they just don't seem to get along no matter what.

Give a significant bonus to Death Saves. Can be static or slowly decreasing. But, once they get to number 9 (for their tenth life) the modifier becomes either massively negative or a guaranteed fail.

That way the "Nine" in Nine Lives means something ...

So I was thinking that maybe they should be really good jumpers, maybe able to leap double or triple. Further, they should be able to drop from huge heights without damage. Maybe something like 30' + 10' per dex bonus.

Anyway, just my take on it. Plus, I think it would be pretty original AND it reinforces the +2 saving throws, because the felisian is just jumping out of the way!
