Swimming

What it is: Swimming is the art of moving and not drowning within fluids. It includes floating, surface swimming, snorkeling, diving, and related equipment use.When you use it: Use Swimming whenever you need to move and survive in water or another liquid environment. Swimming in a non-threatening environment can be handled as a Simple Success Test. Swimming over a long distance could be handled as a Task Action. Diving off a cliff into a lake, preventing yourself from being swept away in a raging river current, or making sure you’ve set a proper gas mix for a deep-sea dive, among other things, requires a Success Test.
