Hastur's proximity to the aquarian realm has inspired some investigation into this interesting proposition.
Hastur would conclude that for the most part non-suspirae would find themselves highly restricted in underwater activity unless highly proficient at swimming, and even those who are more skilled in aquatics would still face hindrance dependant on appropriateness of implement.
(so -20 for the "very-restricted" nature of someone fighting in and under-water who has 0 ranks of swimming. dropping to -10 for R1 swimmers and 0 for R3+. Weapon type adds a further penalty dependant on type 0 for piercing, -5 slashing and device missiles, -10 bludgeoning and thrown missiles, -15 for odd stuff like shield bashing etc.. also don't forget that most geomancy spells will be extremely hard/impossible!)
