So, I've gotten my first ever PFS race boon and it's for an undine.* I'm thinking of making a Watersinger Bard out of her, and I was wondering if people had recommendations for wet adventures. No other spoilers please -- I just want there to be a lot of water around. This can be adventures in flooded dungeons, on top a raft on the river, near a ship... Extra points if it's one where I can actually get submerged and show off my swim speed!
While she'll have enough general bardic abilities to be useful to any gaming party (even in the desert) I'd love to reserve for her a few adventures where she can get really wet and wild.
Confirmation (yes, I know this one can be replayed)
Overflow Archives
Delirium's Tangle
Slave Pits of Absalom

Having played an aquatic-focused Undine through many of those scenarios I can confirm that it's incredibly entertaining and useful (and I *really* wish I'd played through DrParty06's spoilered scenario!).
Thematically that type of character has RP opportunities that you rarely ever encounter. Mechanically, gaining +8 to AC and Improved Evasion against opponents on land is a lifesaver. I've only ever encountered one dispute within the rules, so just be aware it exists.
You have a good opportunity to pick up an Underwater Crossbow (Light or Heavy).
Watersinger Bard is fun. If you're looking for other suggestions on classes, there's the Aquatic Druid, and I've thoroughly enjoyed the Bolt Ace (specializing in the aforementioned Underwater Crossbow).

An excellent adventure for an Undine is [REDACTED]. But it oddly enough lacks in water but would still be FANTASTIC
Codanous... I didn't find one with that exact title.
Pathfinder Society Scenario #2-18: The Forbidden Furnace of Forgotten Koor
Huh. A desert scenario. Okay, I'll take your word for it that it will be great! Maybe by the time that Nixie plays it, she'll be able to afford that decanter of endless water that she's been telling me is her ultimate desire.

Given that undines have been a legal race for a Season and a half, and that we have several aquatic boon races made available this year (GenCon’s Naiad boon, as well as Aquatic Elf and the compound boons of Gillman and Merfolk) I decided that it was high time to let the flood gates forth and revisit this thread!
What are your continuing recommendations for adventures where you can make a splash?
Consortium Compact
Gallows of Madness, parts II and III
Beyond the Halflight Path (some story arcs / monster choices)
Let’s keep the list going, and help players consolidate their travel plans!

I never said it was the wettest scenario ever, but Silent Tide definitely has some swimming involved, which makes it wetter than some of the others mentioned in this thread. In fact, the special, Assault on Absalom, was mentioned, and it's a direct sequel to Silent Tide, with the wet scene in that one being a callback to the similar moment in Silent Tide.
It's ironic that the "tide" in the adventure title isn't a reference to water, yet there's definitely water in the adventure.

I've already played that on another character, pre-boon. I agree it would be perfect for my little undine. Maybe I can replay it when I get my first GM star.
I just wanted to point out this old post, and to tell you all that the replay of Overflow Archives finally happened for Nixie. It was a complete and utter delight, run by VC Lawrence Smith in Play-by-Post!
It is funny looking back to something written before I got my first GM star, but all the enthusiasm that I had then I still have now.
Hmm
