Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Overview... head of the Resource Development Administration’s (RDA’s) private security force. He’s a colonel who knows only violence, and believes that the only way to deal with the Na’vi on planet Pandora is to eradicate them completely.
Personality… militant, hard-hearted, and tactical. Quaritch sets up preemptive strikes before the Na’vi even have a chance to give a peace offering. He is happy to participate in RDA’s avatar program, in which a human soldier is able to inhabit a hybrid Na’vi body and commune with the natives – but Quaritch only supports the program insofar as they will be able to learn how to defeat the natives, a group of people that he views as an enemy.
