My DM has it fall to the ground and take fall damage.

Even magical flight has an Armor Check penalty and this strongly suggests to me that you need to be able to move to fly. If you can't fly properly you float to the ground and take no damage.

Thanks for the reply @Static Hamster.

They both assume the flight characteristics of a rock.


On a related note, and i am sorry if this seems off topic, but after being stunned and especially after being stunned out of the sky... is the subject then prone?

Thanks to those who replied.


If you dispel or the duration runs out on the spell fly, you float down 60 ft then drop like a stone.

I see no reason why being stunned wouldn't work the same.
