Order the cheeldren to open fire on the remaining pirate ship, whilst I ram it.
Better idea.
Negotiate a truce, taking advantage of the Emet bridge's intimidation bonus.
Ah, screw it. The original plan.
(2+1) The children take manual control of one of the cannons and fire it at the ship! (6+1) (dodge:2) They hit it right in the (SP:1) deck! (damage:3) The ship is weakened slightly. RAMMING SPEED! (4+1) (dodge:6) The pirate ship gets out of your way... (4) And Iali shoots! (dodge:5) That ship is too tricksy...
Pat self on back. Do support guy stuff.
Congratulating yourself on more successful SCIENCE, you decide to make some corrosive gas bombs for the cannons. Iali is busy, and the golem is piloting the ship, so you do it alone. (2+1) You are kind of rushed, but you still make them adequately. (power:6) These things are filled with the most powerful acid you could find. +1 to damage. (size:6) ...You're gonna need a bigger cannon. These won't fit in the ones you have with you. (usefulness:6) And they have no chance of breaking before they hit the target. (efficiency:N/A) You made a dozen of these shells before you ran out of acid.
Man oon o' dos' cannons an' fia!
Ax watched Nirur and Torir fight, astonished. "Holy shit. That was fantastic," he said to himself, one hand scratching the back of his head. "I'm going to have to congratulate Riccto on another overwhelming success, that's for sure. First, though..." He turned towards the ship where Jo was fighting. I should probably help him out. He used the remote to reload the cannon and fire them at the ship, hoping to hit the captain of it.
Big Jo grabs a cannon, and aims it at the scary undead wizard pirate. (3) (1) (dodge:4) He jumps out of the way of one of the shots, and the cannonball zooms across the deck. The other shot was a dud, and the cannonball rolls out of the mouth of the cannon. Ax aims the other four cannons, (6, 4, 3, 6) (dodge:4,2,6,1) and hits the lich with 3. (damage:2,1,3) He is way too scary... How did those not even scratch him?
Jump to the ship with the boss on it, DO BATTLE.
It's clobberin' time! (5+1) You leap to the boss ship and scurry up the side! (3) (dodge:4) The captain shoots a blast of fire at you, but you move out of the way and leap to attack! (4+1+1,6+1+1) (dodge:5,2) You hit him lightly on the (BP:4) left arm with your organic arms, and heavily (damage+1) on the (BP:6) neck (damage+1) with your metal arms. (damage:5+1+1,6+1+1+1+1)
The lich explodes. Like, literally, explodes. Pieces of lich splatter everywhere. (1) And his sword, with its flaming enchantment, flies towards a gunpowder stockpile. Ohshi- (dodge:3) You leap, but are caught in the side by some flaming wreckage! (damage:2) It just knocks the breath out of you. Otherwise, you're fine. (dodge:5+1) Schilcote moves Emet quickly out of the way of the blast. The rest of the pirates quickly flee.

Will do anything asked of him unless he has a reason not to (if it conflicts with an existing goal or his basic morality). Lawful Good (as in lawful as the opposite of chaotic).

Background: His people believe themselves to be the only true guardians of the material plane; the best way to help the mortal inhabitants of said plane is by not touching anything. Obviously this is what The Creator had in mind, and any who meddle in the plane, and therefore blaspheme The Creator, are to be punished severely.
After three decades of military service (doing nothing), he has been sent out as a sort of test to determine the extent of the planer distortion, fix it if possible, find the perpetrators, deliver justice, then report back.
