Biography[]
Life on Pandora[]
Alex is a biologist who was inspired by Grace Augustine's research and enamored with the idea of Pandora and its alien lifeforms. Unfortunately, he never got to meet Grace who died before his arrival, so he ran off and sided with Jake Sully in the Omatikaya rebellion in 2154. Jake allowed him to stay so he could honor Grace's work and memory.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora — So'lek's Journey[]
Alex meets So'lek.
In 2168, So'lek awakens in a cell, chained by his wrists to the floor, with a breathing mask affixed to his face. In the cell with him is Alex, who is also a prisoner. Alex wakes So'lek and tries to explain to him where they are, but So'lek lashes out, not trusting Alex due to him being a human. Alex asks So'lek if what he'd heard about him bringing down a Samson singlehanded is true, and then urges So'lek to calm down and think about survival. So'lek ignores him, and Alex is dragged away by RDA soldiers. As Alex is dragged off, an RDA officer comes in to speak with So'lek in Na'vi.
The officer tells So'lek that humanity's forces cannot be stopped, and So'lek's only choices are to tell him where the Na'vi are encamped, or face an indiscriminate bombing campaign over the entirety of Pandora's forests. So'lek refuses to cooperate, and the officer leaves, saying that So'lek has until morning to reconsider.
A little while later, Alex is thrown back into the cell, bruised from torture. Alex says that they were quick with him because the soldiers wanted to see the aurora. After Alex mentions this, he realizes So'lek is also interested in the aurora and gives him a mirror so that he can still see it from where he is confined, as a window from the other side of the hall would have a clear view. Alex assures So'lek that he doesn't want anything in return, but despite this, So'lek does not take the gift. Alex explains that not all humans are the same, and some are resisting RDA efforts to colonize Pandora. After this explanation, So'lek takes the mirror and is able to see the aurora.
So'lek mournfully laments that he never thought his quest would end with him inside a cell, watching the aurora while chained up. Alex attempts to cheer him up, saying that this is not the end, and asks why the aurora was important to him. Before So'lek responds, an RDA soldier comes to inform Alex that a trial has been held and that he has been found guilty of sedition. The sentence is thirty years in prison on Earth. The soldier takes the mirror from So'lek and Alex attacks him, but gets quickly subdued.
So'lek speculates that Alex may be some kind of RDA trickery, meant to gain his sympathy and trust before breaking his spirit. Alex insists that that is not the case, but So'lek continues to distrust him. Alex tells So'lek that he knows he is going to die if he doesn't do anything, then reveals that he swiped the keys off of the guard when he attacked him earlier. Alex unlocks his own cuffs, and offers the same to So'lek, saying that they need to escape and meet up with the Resistance. So'lek says that he will work with him, but not just to escape. He wants to fight the RDA, destroy the base, and only then will they return to Alex's friends. Alex enthusiastically agrees.
Alex and So'lek make their escape, killing guards along the way. So'lek decides to take their necklaces as a tally of his revenge. So'lek notices Alex killing humans, earning So'lek's trust. So'lek finds his weapons, and Alex suggests finding fuel to destroy the RDA's base. Outside, the two find a fuel container. So'lek runs in front of it, causing soldiers to explode it. Alex tells So'lek about a nearby Resistance camp; the two can flee there and await orders from Jake Sully. Alex is impressed by So'lek who quickly kills two more soldiers and finds paint to guide the way to the camp.
There, So'lek meets Alma Cortez who calls her group to So'lek. Alex praises So'lek's abilities. So'lek notices the Resistance members shaking their weapons, revealing they are not trained. Alex points out they are scientists, and asks for So'lek to teach the members. So'lek has an outburst at Alex, saying he does not care about the Sky People's needs. Alex apologizes, but reassures the group will fight to protect Pandora and Eywa. One Resistance members mentions the RDA is searching the area; So'lek orders the others to wait and goes to kill them. So'lek finds the patrol and kills all five of them. So'lek returns to Alex and Alma, bringing them the RDA's weapons. Alma is impressed, saying So'lek can have whatever they have. So'lek decides to train them with the lessons of the Na'vi.
