There are a few things you can do to not lose your Pencil in the future like keeping it charged or attached to your iPad.
Can Apple Pencil break if dropped
It depends on how it drops. If it lands on the tip, as mine did, there's a good chance that the tip will be bent. That might not make it unusable, but at least awkward to use. And if it lands from a great height, the plastic case could break and/or the BlueTooth unit stop working.
