Colonel Miles Quaritch

Quaritch looked and acted like a lifelong military man. He wore his hair short and was covered with battle scars, most notably a trio of claw marks on the side of his head which he sustained during his first day on Pandora.

His long-running military career was representative of his personality. He regularly worked out to off-set the low gravity on Pandora so he didn't get "soft". He was in outstanding physical condition, despite being middle aged, and was willing to put himself in significant personal risk when he though the situation warranted it. An expert with his AMP suit, he was familiar with combat techniques as demonstrated by his marksmanship, hand-to-hand and melee combat skills.

Despite being a fierce and merciless warrior, Quaritch took care of his own, and had good relations with his SecOps Soldiers, who respected him as a commander and leader. However, he also acknowledged during an initial briefing that he would not be able to save all of those he was charged with protection, due to the harsh environment of Pandora. He shows great admiration for the dedication Jake Sully showed by willingly to perform covert intelligence gathering from within the Na'vi people.

He is extremely xenophobic and places humans and humanity unquestioningly above all else.
