[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 6909309, member: 11146"] [ooc]Absolutely, [MENTION=40413]GlassEye[/MENTION], no roll required if you have a swim speed. And I'll just use the raw 16 you rolled (for a the unneeded Concentration check) for Ce'rek's Athletics check, which means three of five characters passed the Athletics check to beat the undertow in the lake.[/ooc] The group swam past the sucking undertow, narrowly avoiding losing first Solace then Kamael to the water's icy current. Several of the kuo-toa, aided by the able-bodied crab-Raza, grasp the two struggling aasimar, fishing them out of the current. Eventually, the group makes it way up a gradual underwater incline. The water is inky black, and there is no light, but this is of little recourse to a group well-versed in traversing the depths of the Underdark. You can see, and eventually make out stout pillars of gray woodlike beams that extend from the water's surface down to a mud-laden rocky underwater shelf. The wharves.
