You are capable of moving through water areas.
This skill allows the character to move through water areas. Swimming is slow, however, so the cost of movement is increased.
Movement costs 2 AP per tile while swimming and if you spend more than 15 minutes on the same water tile, you will drown.
If the character also possesses the Strength skill, movement in water is reduced to 1 Action Point per square.
This skill is not required if you have the Water Breathing skill.
