Well Mark has already spent it for Jareena and that was the primary
action, so that would cause it to succeed. As you say, the others
abilities were augments, so maybe they would have to be applied in a
similar fashion (although I don't recall doing that before) - I'll have
to check through the rules.. In the meantime however...

The ship lurches painfully in the storm and there is a sudden crunch.
All are thrown roughly about and are scattered on the ship. One thing is
certain however, the boat is no longer being tossed on the waves. The
pouring rain and howling winds continue throughout the night and
everyone works themselves to exhaustion trying to keep themselves and
the vessel in place.

The following morning there is calm; Orlanth and Storm Bull have
exhausted themselves. Yelm is high in the blue sky watching over his
domain. The shore is of white sands; directly in front of the shoreline
and stretching far in an easterly direction are children of Aldryami,
but with a most fecund and moist deep green that none of you have seen,
or at least for many, many years. To the west and north there are dunes
with but a few shrubs.

A Ludoch makes its way near to the shoreline. "I heard your calls", she
says, matter-of-factly. "You know the right words of greeting, and I
accepted them. Our magics channelled you to this place, where your limbs
are more suited to stable surface of Ga. You should think again before
entering a place where the surface moves - or learn to go below that
surface"

With a quick swish of its tail, the Ludoch dived underwater leaving the
Fellowship on the shoreline.
