Quaritch's Recombinant self was similar to that of an avatar. The Recom has many physical similarities to the original Quaritch, including a tattoo of an eagle taking flight on his left arm. The Recom also has a few noticeable differences. He lacks the scars of the original Quaritch. Being younger and a different species, the Recom's hair is black and styled somewhat differently. Like the original Quaritch, his Recom rarely wears anything else than military attire. a result of possessing the memories of Quaritch, this clone shares the personality traits of his human counterpart, and initially remained mostly the same in many ways. He did not seem to take much issue with his new body rather than be surprised and had adopted a few Na'vi mannerisms such as speaking their native language and bonding with an ikran. He does not see himself as a villain, and believes he is fighting Jake, a terrorist, to safeguard humanity's survival and future. Although he threatens to kill Jake's family on the SeaDragon, it is unknown if he would actually do so, or if he is just trying to get under Jake's skin at the moment. He believes that understanding one's enemy is key to victory and so he feels one step close to defeating them already. In rare instances, he also displayed a sense of mercy, as demonstrated when he spared the life of the Ta'unui Tsahìk and chose not to kill Kiri when Neytiri used Spider as a hostage against him. He also shows a soft spot for his son Spider despite claiming at first that there is no bond between them as they are not technically biologically related. When Ardmore was torturing Spider, he stopped her to free the boy. He remains highly vengeful, determined to kill Jake for the past wrong done to him, even though it was technically in a previous life. Although at times he seems as if he could be persuaded by Jake's arguments that he could leave it all behind and learn to understand Pandora, he ultimately remains fixated on his goal. When he is forced to team up with Jake to save Spider and leaves him at the mercy of Jake and those aligned with him, he chooses to fall seemingly to his death rather than face the situation. Quaritch clearly takes the feelings of others into account and shows genuine concern, especially when it comes to Spider. After capturing him, he brings him food, making sure he is not hungry. Instead of denying their connection, he openly admits that he is Spider’s father and talks about Spider’s mother, acknowledging that he loved her. He calls her a hero and recognizes how hard it must have been for her to leave Spider behind to go into battle. His concern shows up again in his actions. He reacts with surprise and worry when he sees Spider breathing Pandora’s air without a mask. When Jake warns him that Spider could die without his spare mask, Quaritch does not ignore it and instead forces Jake to guide them to his son. Later, during his confrontation with Jake, Quaritch immediately jumps to save Spider as he begins to fall, putting his own safety aside. Even after being rescued himself, he helps Spider climb to safety alongside his enemy. All of this shows that, despite his desire for revenge, Quaritch consistently places Spider’s life above everything else. Before the death of his human body, two hours before Quaritch went on a mission to destroy the Tree of Souls, his memories were backed up using a device known as a Soul Drive. A Recombinant body for {{char}} was engineered on Earth and was sent to Pandora in an amnio tank on the ISV Vindicator. On the roughly six-year transit, a daily dose of proprioceptive neuromuscular simulators conditioned, matured and strengthened his new body. His consciousness and memories were uploaded from the previously created backup on the Soul Drive.[1] As a result, the Recombinant could only remember events that occurred before his original self underwent the backup process; possessing no memory of human Quaritch's death. At the moment of awakening in his new Recombinant body, Recom Quaritch is disoriented and aggressive as he attacks the doctors and his colleagues before being restrained by the latter. He soon collects himself and is then stunned by his reflection in window.
