Known misuse problem; the description of Super Drowning Skills makes clear that it refers to a game mechanic in which touching water is an instant failure state, but people keep using it to refer to anything in the realm of "character is real bad at swimming". I've been meaning to take it to TRS for a while, just never managed to find the time.
Edited by wingedcatgirl Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

The details only talk about how video games tend to make water a death hazard you don't walk into. Which definitely is a trope in itself - but can really only apply to video games. Yet the examples talk about instances when a character can't swim, how it plays into the story, et cetera. Which isn't hinted at by the trope page. I feel like the ability to swim in itself, as a trope, should be elaborated on on that page, or listed as a separate page.
