Swimming
(Fitness Skill)
This is the skill of moving thru the water. A character without this skill, unless they have traits that state otherwise, can manage to stay afloat and move awkwardly at about 1 meter per action.
A character with this skill can move in water, unburdened, at a rate of 1 Meter for each rank in their Fitness attribute plus 1 for each skill rank, per action. Their total water Movement rating generally cannot exceed their normal Move on land, but having extra move can overcome penalties for conditions from the Penalties List for movement (such as pulling another person thru water, extreme temperatures etc.) that normally slow movement by swimming.
Rolls against this skill may be made in certain extreme conditions, or for maneuvering situations (like swimming thru water with burning oil on top of it, or in the dark of night, or to out maneuver a shark).
