Hyperion first stands at the prow of the ship and uses a stick to test how deep the water is.

Hyperion gets to the bottom of the stick, and it's still going.

Hyperion curses and throws the stick out into the water in his frustration. Then he looks around for something buoyant.

Well he is from Tethyr, and besides, he's given up just about everything else. Not that he's cursing the gods...maybe he could be cursing at one of the evil gods, like Loviatar or something. That would make sense.
I still think having all our stuff on one boat is a really bad idea. But anyway, Hyperion drops his heavy shield and armor, so that he's lighter(better swimming). He drops pretty much everything but his sword actually. Then he takes a deep breath and jumps into the water, swimming towards the cave.

Cursing at "Loviatar", lol, I wish. So Hyperion jumps into the water, without his armor. What about everyone else?

Welcome aboard Faunbard, but you should know we already have 3 "fighter" classes,would you perhaps like to play a "Bard", Faunbard? We could use a "Wizard" or maybe another "Rogue" or "Cleric". Those are the basic classes, but if you don't want a basic class, I have all the 3.5 rules, and would be glad to assist you in making your character. Here is your sheet if you don't want to do any of that:
