Somewhat dazed by the sonic attack, Obozaya makes another guarded move around the large beast and swings her doshko.

Gear tries to fire again...
Though this time, she spooks as she pulls the trigger and yanks the gun up, missing entirely. Realizing how badly she did, she tries to operate boytoy's controls...
and boytoy draws his weapons to fire...
It's... a sad showing indeed as boytoy misses both attack.
Trying a different route Xanthi pulls his blaster and fires at the creature hitting it between it's eyes
Somewhat dazed by the sonic attack, Obozaya makes another guarded move around the large beast and swings her doshko slicing into ones of it's legs
Lady Onyx cheers as you manage to bring the creature down by a combined effort.
As you study the dead creature a bit closer you think that the tough, overlapping crystals that make up the skreebara’s carapace could be valuable.
The tactical X-gen gun affixed to the section of shattered hull can be removed with about 10 minutes of work. Although the weapon is too damaged to be functional (apart from firing its remaining shots), it can be sold as scrap for 212 credits.

Once you reach the wreckage of the Unbounded Wayfarer, you can plainly see that the vessel is far beyond repair. Although one of the Starfinders survived long enough to activate the distress beacon, there are no survivors—seven desiccated corpses remain in the wreckage, while the remaining crew members were pulled out by the skreebara and devoured.
If you examine the wreckage you can attempt a Perception or Piloting check.
Nothing else of value remains in the wreck;
anything obviously worth salvaging was taken earlier. Although the Unbounded Wayfarer’s computers are beyond repair, they retain sufficient power to interact with the Starfinder insignias you brought with you. The computer interface ports contain an indentation the same shape as the Starfinder insignias.
"These crystals look valuable. Give me one second here to gather some."
Once at the ship.
Obozaya entertains herself by dismantling the X-Gen gun for scrap while the others investigate the crashed starship.

Xanthis while studying the wreck recognizes the characteristic impact marks of heavy metallic slugs, such as those used in coilguns or railguns on starships. The damage on the ship’s hull indicates that it tried to dodge the strafing fire but darted the wrong way.
Gear enters her wayfinder into the depression and tries to hook into the system to find it response; the computer flares to life just
enough to display a datafile of worlds previously explored by
crew of the Unbounded Wayfarer. They include:
• A wasteland planet called Elytrio that displayed signs of scattered technology.
• A sentient asteroid called Lamentia teeming with morlock “children” in the Vast.
• A massive space station called End of Bright Things stuck between the orbits of two blue dwarf stars.
• A stormy, oceanic world called Wealdriad, with upthrust columns of basalt piercing the storm-tossed ocean’s surface.
The final location’s coordinates are too damaged to display, but the computer has enough power to open a slot containing a salvaged item from the lost location ; it's a small crystal
Oboyaza with the help of Lady Onyx dismantles the X-gen gun for scrap.
Once you have recovered the data module from the Unbounded Wayfarer, you can safely retrace your steps to the Odyssey and leave Ulmarid’s surface.

Sorry, forgot to mention that Xanthis could harvest crystals worth 800 credits from the creature.
You launch up from the planets surface and start to make your way back out of the asteroid belt.
A warning klaxon blares, and the ship lurches. The asteroid field around the world of Ulmarid is more agitated than on the descent down to the surface. Although it’s not clear what has caused the anomalous activity, what’s certain is that you must reach safer altitude before a more serious collision occurs.
The pilot must succeed at a Piloting check to navigate back through the asteroid field around Ulmarid, but due to the agitation, the DC of this check is higher then when you flew in. As before, the captain can attempt a DC 10 Piloting check or a DC 17 Diplomacy or Intimidate check to add a +2 bonus to the pilot’s check Additionally, science officers can each attempt a DC 15 Computers check to add an additional +2 bonus to the pilot’s check.

Lady Onyx sits down at the science station to try to lend a hand
and manages to provide Gear some direction on where to go and what to avoid.
Gliding through space Gear manages to dodge the asteroids in your path and almost make it outside the asteroid ring
A large vessel of rusted metal slips from behind an enormous asteroid, its weapons already firing. The front of the ship resembles a stylized skull with crossed bones beneath—a clear indication of space pirates!
Succeeding the check you recognize that Besmaran space pirates are a growing threat throughout galactic shipping lanes, and that such pirates throw themselves into combat with a boisterous zeal—it is rare to talk one’s way out of combat with an approaching Besmaran pirate ship.

"Hoo boy!" Obozaya hisses. "This is going to be a fight!"
Xanthis readies himself to help anyway he can..
Obozaya unloads with everything she's got in the forward weapons array. She hisses with glee as the space in front of them lights up with weapon trails. "I like this ship!"
Xanthis moves to one of the guns..
"Not sure how too ffiirr.."
He fires a rocket inadvertinly at the enemy ship..
"OH! Thats how you do it.."
lol..
"Hey I did it!"
hits weapons array I think.

Obozaya unloads with everything she's got in the forward weapons array
Her first attack bounces harmlessly of the Pirate's ships shields without causing damage but that was only a set-up for the next attack as the heavy laser bites through the forward shields and into the hull
Quickly followed by an attack from Xanthis out of the turret which hit the enemy ships heavy lasers crippling them
An open broadcast can be heard from the pirate ship
"We gonna be blowing you up good! F-f-f-fire at will lads!"
in the distance you can hear a voice reply; "Fireing is this button right?"
The voices coming over the communication channel sounds pretty drunk
After that has been said all sorts of warning lights start to blink on your control panels as you detect multiple weapons fire and a torpedo launch
The erratic firing of the obviously drunk pirates combined with Gear's piloting skill and evasive maneuvers make one of the attacks miss, but the other hit chews away some of your forward shielding.
The torpedo can't get a good lock and shoots past your ship and keeps on flying into the distance
Lady Onys runs for the scanners to the engineering bay and tries to get some shielding back online
but fails to do so
init
Piloting check, if you beat the 13 you can move last. Assume they stay where they are for now. Pointing their big (albeit damaged) guns towards you.
Followed by
gunnery I think you roll at the same time, I don't think it will matter this round
"Nice shot, Xanthis!" Obozaya encourages her crew mate and continues to unload with all she's got at the pirate ship.
"Right! I'll try again."

Gear keeps the ship floating in front of the Lawbright, your guns pointing towards their damaged hull...and looking down the barrels of their slightly damaged guns
Having no trouble finding the hole in their shields both of Oboyazas and Xanthis missile find their targets and blast great heaps of metal from the pirate ships hull
At the same time the ship returns fire
but damaged as the ship is the drunk pirates can't get a decent lock against your ship and all attacks fail
Damage Lawbright:
Shields forward 15 out of 15, port 5, starboard 5, aft 5
Hull: 72 (out of 85)
Forward heavy laser-glitching (-2 to hit) -> Malfunctioning due to CT passed from hull damage (So a -4)
Damage Oddesey:
Shields; forward 12 out of 20, port 15, starboard 15, aft 20
Hull:
multiple systems on board the ship start to glitch and fail
init
I think we can just stick to some attack rolls from your side for this
"One or two more hits!"

As the heavy lasers fired by Oboyaza blast through what's left of the Lawbright the ship starts to drift to the side as smoke pours out of both the front and back of the damaged hull.
Being sure that you destroyed a pirate menace in the region you return to Absolom station to report your findings from the wreck from the planet below
Venture-Captain Arvin greets you with a warm smile as you disembark. “You can undergo the tedium of a complete debrief later. First, I’ve
arranged for you all to enjoy a few days’ downtime in Kemanis, at the high-end clubs, theaters, and VR parlors. You’ve earned it. But,” he warns, with a sly twinkle in his eye, “after that, it’ll be time to put you back to work.”
