Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Enchantment Concept: Absorption (Helmet)

A rare helmet enchant that prevents death from high-impact collisions and slightly cushions smaller crashes.

Function
• Triggers only on impact damage
• If the hit would kill you, you survive at low health
• Helmet loses heavy durability each save
• Gives small reduction to elytra crash damage and falling block damage even when non-fatal
• Does not protect against normal combat damage

Crash effect
• On fatal elytra impact, you punch a crater into soft blocks
• Radius scales with speed
• Breaks dirt, grass, sand, gravel, clay, farmland
• Hard blocks stay intact
• Broken blocks drop items
• Nearby players take 50 to 75 percent of the crash damage you would have taken
• Direct mid-air collision shares full crash damage before the save triggers

Obtaining
• Ancient city chest loot
• Rare master-level armorer trade
• Not obtainable from enchanting table

Theme
Impact survival and crash spectacle, helmet paying the price instead of your life.

    I woud make this into 2 different enchants; one for the elytra and falling objects damage and other one that works as a nerffed totem, the first one being for the helmet and the other one being for the chestplate to give it it's first unique enchantment and also not possible to use while using an elytra to balance it. I would also make it so it only saves you against damage that would kill you without armor (20 damage) so it doesn't protect against sword and axes but it does against maces, spears, end crystas, etc. Should give a visual hint to know when it activates too and both enchantments shouldn't let you with too much health.
