All flying and prone creatures make the saving throw at a disadvantage. If the creature is already prone and fails the saving throw, they take force damage equal to twice your gosu level. In order for creatures to stand up, they must make a Strength or Wisdom saving throw in addition to half their movement, only standing up if they succeed. Additionally you can use your reaction to stop any ranged attacks that come into your domain but you must spend 1 Qi per target.
