Liam
A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-4.
A missing Starfinder ship's distress signal would have gone unnoticed were it not for a passerby detecting it and selling the information to the Society. The PCs are to travel to the crippled starship, and once aboard, reach the bridge in order to piece together the tragic story of the vessel's lost crew. Only by unraveling the mysteries of the drifting starship can the PCs hope to uncover information critical to the Exo-Guardians future operations.
Content in Cries From the Drift also contributes to the ongoing goals of the Exo-Guardians faction.

Qaru's shooting starts strike home unerringly as if guided by Triune itself. Unfortunately, the ghost of Yotto returns the favour, and Qaru howls in pain. Perhaps it has something against Kasathas especially.
"Yotto no more,
mere shadow you are."
And yet again, Qaru channels the might of his god, and barrages the drift dead with the shooting stars.

The shroud dissipates and Spunky’s mote returns to normal. He looks at Qaru. ”You may want some rest. It seems the blows that Yotto received before being trapped may have left it weak. We have the needed battery, but I don’t know if maybe the clawed creatures that slew the Android and the Kasatha in the mess hall are still present. So let us gather the bodies we have so far while Qaru rests.”

"We will get you home," she tells them quietly, when the work is done. Then she rejoins the Qaru. "We are ready when you are. Determined!"

Qaru is of course concerned over the body of the crewman, and what would happen to it if they start crushing the xill larvae. But since they would eat the body any way, if let unchecked, best course of action is to put all effort on crushing the larvae.
Let's kill the xill first, and them power up the door. Do we need to make a check to kill the larvae?

”The bodies are already so torn up, it’s best we just destroy the larvae and move on. I will place the other battery as soon as we get this cleaned up.

"Oh, how horrible! That certainly is worrying." Zez'ka remarks. "Sad!"
She helps crush the bugs and then moves over to next door. With her gun in hand she waits patiently, guarding the door while Spunky gets it powered up, just in case something tries to escape.

The door to the bridge powers on, but nothing opens it.
When you open the door
The ship’s bridge is alight in red warning screens. The nearing
ethereal storm looms beyond the forward viewing platform,
while the ship’s failing power causes each station’s panels to
flicker intermittently. A battered captain’s chair oversees two
tiers of descending operations panels.
A solitary Kasathan figure lies slumped over in the front right
pilot's chair.
