A new skill for the newer versions

I would like to have a skill idea added for vampires. The skill itself would be either a slow fall mechanic or a complete stop all falling for a short duration mechanic. basically either a vampire has just been caught in some garlic and can't fly and are falling into a trap placed by a hunter. if they selected this ability they could hover above said trap or desired location to give themselves time to think of a solution like grabbing a water bucket. They could also use this in battle like pulling out a trident or crossbow and shooting while suspended in mid-air while also being able to get shot at easily.
the alternative idea I've thought of is instead a passive ability granting slow fall. this would both help the vampire and hinder them as it can either save them from certain death by fall if garlic or the sun is present and they get forced out of bat mode or it can solidify their death if the sun causes them to fall out of bat mode as they would simply slowly fall and burn with no way to fall faster and hide from the sun.
I believe this would help with problems like flying while it's raining as at any time the rain can go away. or it could help with people hiding garlic at vampire bases. I think it wouldn't be seen as "op" or game breaking as both ideas have down sides (being an easy target) (not being able to escape the sun) the up sides are equal to the down sides
Sadly as i am not familiar with coding nor drawing i myself cannot provide code or sprites for the abilities though an idea for them would be the phantom membrane item
