|Chpt.1.Informational Database:Na'vi. Derived Information:
Na'vi are normally 3 meters in height. Their hands are graceful, with three very long fingers, and one opposed thumb. The fingers curve smoothly, bending without joints. This sounds off-putting, but it is actually quite elegant to lay eyes on. The faces are exquisite, with high cheekbones and large noble yellow eyes, maybe twice the size of an average human's. When open they dominate the face, like those of a cat or lemur. The mouth is also large, but essentially human, with a faint cat-like bifurcation of the upper lip, and a coloration like permanent deep purple lipstick. The teeth are white, with pronounced canines, upper and lower. The species do obviously eat meat, but they are assumed to be generally omnivourous.
They have a tail which is long and slightly prehensile, but more like the tail of a panther than a monkey. A complex pattern of iridescent dots and lines, perfectly symmetrical, runs over the body, almost following the lines of the nervous or circulatory system. These are bioluminescent chromatophores, and they glow in the dark like fireflies. The alien can communicate with these, and in fact they usually are shifting and changing color to indicate mood and emotion, without conscious control. The ears of the Na'vi are long and pointed. The body has no hair whatsoever, though there is what looks like a black pony tail, or queue, originating in the back of the head and hanging down almost to the waist. This is not hair, but actually an external part of the nervous system that allows them to tap into the collective, planetary psionic emanations of Eywa, enabling them to "commune" with the planet's flora and fauna.
On the whole, Na'vi are similar to humans, both in appearance and anatomically. They are, however, much larger and typically stronger than humans; this may be in part to Pandora's lower gravity, which after a time will cause a person to "get soft" as Colonel Quaritch put it. The Na'vi nervous system is also more complex; while not adding to intelligence or sensory reception, it allows them to "link up" with Pandoras animals and plant life.
Officer Note:
The Na'vi are unlike everything you've ever seen before, Marine. They're 16 feet of blue muscle, and carbon fibred bone. You know what that means soldier? You need an AMP Suit[See Chapter 9] to over power one head on. Don't even think of engaging alone trooper, that is if your feeling lucky.
The Na'vi Worship a planet Deity, Eywa. All that is confirmed from recent databases are theories of collected consciousnesses, nothing concrete, yet.
Their Culture can be compared to a respect system. The better the warrior, the more respect he has. The chieftain, is obviously the big man on campus. The one man you want to avoid at all costs.
Seeing as you'll be landing in the ruins of Hells Gate, you'll probably come into contact with two main tribes. The Omaticaya Clan and the Tipani Clan[X]. These clans have caused a ton of problems for us in the past, and I don't expect them to lets us off easy this time either! As of such, you must all prepare yourselves for the possibility that we may come into contact with two organized groups.

|Chpt.2.Navigation|Code of Conduct. Navigation
Please use this hot link to travel to the Inter-Travel Chat.[OOC]
Here is a database with the greater details on persona's profiles.[ProfileThread]
Codes of Conduct
Speaking and Composure: I'm not making this a neo-nazi literate thread. One paragraph will do. However, should you enjoy posting more, or feel the wanting to, I won't stop you, in fact, I'd encourage it. If you feel that your in able to post fully to your ability at one post, just type up what comes to mind and smooth it out. Pointers would be, describing the surroundings, a definite good idea, let us see the planet through your characters eyes. Another would obviously be thought, granted the characters don't know, but it gives us a closer feel to the character. Lastly is dialogue and actions. Both are very important, as of such, go to great pains to making them interesting! Or not, the choice is yours.
General: You should know the general stuff. No one is godly, Everyone can and most likely will die at one point in their lives, well... the ending point of their lives. You will respect superior officers, as they are like moderators. They will tell you if your going to far, and ask you to stop. They only have the power to freeze the roleplay for a time period, not removes you from it! If they abuse their power, let me know, and I'll see what I can do about it. Romance is encouraged[Always spices things up.], but this is a PG-13 website, so no sex, or extreme gore. Timeskips will occur, so I suggest you keep tabs on the OOC. Don't check it out like every minute, but once every half hour might be good. All OOC should be said in the OOC thread, granted the smaller comments can be left in the thread.
Private Messages: PM all profiles to me please. You, however, may pm me with any questions or suggestions you have as well! Or to reserve a character. Granted, everyone should do a reservation pm before making their character. If you just do a normal profile, I'll expect a reservation profile along with it. Thank you. Na'vi/Local Information should be titled 'Indigenous Species.' while anyone coming to Pandora should be called 'RDA Personnel'. As of such, you'll be wondering, are there humans on the Na'vi side? And Na'vi on the RDA side... probably, yes... there will be. However, in the begining, the Na'vi side will only have a mix of species.

Objective
Our objective is clear, and simple. We are here to reacquire a base, and then set up operations again. We've chosen one of our old base of operations on the planet, Hells Gate.
Our overall objective is to acquire [Unobtainium].Location
[X|X|X]RDA ESC 01 - Hells Gate. Those are the last images we were able to acquire of the base. Please note, the station is now probably over run with wild animals and flora as well. Expect heavy natural resistance.
[X] The Na'vi call these giant trees home. If you see any, mark them down, and get the hell away. Chances are, if you can see one, you've already been spotted.
[X|X] These are the Hallelujah Mountains. They float because of the heavy concentration of Unobtanium within them. They're also sacred to the Na'vi. Tread this location with caution, soldiers.Rules of Engagement
As a marine, you were trained to fire a gun. As RDA personell you were trained to fire again and hit the mark. On site, you are required to fire at a Na'vi, to kill. Like us, their brains are located within the skull. Unless your sure you got their head, do not approach their bodies. Expect no mercy, soldier.Special Notes
Na'vi have one weak spot of not. It may not seem like much, but their hair is without a doubt the most sensitive location that is exposed. If you ever find yourself within close proximity with a Na'vi, try and go for the hair, if you can.

|Chpt.9.Informational Database:Vehicles. Aerospatiale SA-2 SamsonThe Samson has been in use on Earth for decades. Its various trial runs in Antarctica, the Himalayas, and Honduras proved the aircraft could fly well in thin or thick atmospheres or in extreme temperatures with minimal maintenance. So when the RDA needed a reliable and sturdy aerial workhorse, they naturally chose the field-tested Samson and hardened its electrical systems to prepare it for the rigors of Pandora.
The cargo bay was never pressurized for use on Pandora. Should humans decide to ride in the rear bay, exopacks are required to breathe.MK-6 Amplified Mobility Platform, or AMP SuitIt is a distant relative of the first military suits used on Earth in the mid-21st century. Upgraded, sealed, and pressurized, the AMP Suit was heavily improved for toxic environments and used throughout Pandora.
The AMP Suit is an agile, powerful all-terrain ground combat unit that can defeat most opponents and cut a swathe through both dense jungles and hardened enemy positions. Pilots are protected within the enclosed cab's "Built-in Breathing System". Using the AMP Suit, the driver has the ability to punch through a wall, lift a half ton cargo crate, or rapidly build prefab units without a construction crew. Pilots use a psionic link to control the machine.
The power of the AMP Suit lies with the human operator by magnifying the strength and mobility of the driver. Though massive, it is gyroscopically balanced and quite agile, able to duplicate most human motions with little to no effort.
Because the pilot's arms and legs are synchronized with the AMP Suit's limbs, the pilot affects pressure and direction cues which trigger the suit's motions, executing the intention of the pilot, calculating terrain factors and momentum to perform precise, balanced movements. Force feedback allows the pilot to feel what the suit does. The suit can also be operated in full darkness by a skilled driver.
If the pilot is killed or incapacitated in any way, the suit is programmed to initiate a walk-back feature wherein it automatically treks back to the nearest friendly base for repairs; this feature was put in place to protect the considerable capital investment made on the suit by the RDA.
It takes about two months to learn how to operate the AMP Suit but a lifetime to master it Dragon Assault ShipWhen Pandora was first discovered, the Dragon was, and still is, being used in massed offensives against environmental terrorists and other insurgents on Earth to predictably devastating effect. It was usually used in only the most brutal combat zones, where levelled major enemy installations with ease before deploying it's troops and vehicles onto the ground to proceed with the ground advance in earnest. This earned the Dragon's fiercesome reputation for being able to inflict 100% enemy casualties in any zone it was deployed to.
Later modifications were made which replaced the standard forward missile launchers with remotely manned gun-turrets around various points of the ship, allowing it to defend itself from any close-range targets. Additional modifications include the hardening of the ship's electronic systems, to further protect it from both fierce electromagnetic storms on Pandora, and the constant electronic warfare attacks from terrorists on Earth.
It's standard propulsion system has also been modified, granting it much more forward velocity. The Dragon's original system relied solely on it's four rotors for speed, which made it surprisingly maneuverable, but unsurprisingly slow. However, jet thrusters have now been added alongside it's original four rotors to allow for much higher velocities while moving forward, while maintaining it's impressive maneuverability. Hell TrucksThe trucks are so massive that the average human on Pandora is only three quarters the height of one of it's tires. The wheels are extremely large so it can plow through the thick brush and foliage of Pandora's jungle terrain, or crush and ram any threat that stands.
The trucks are also armored and able to withstand small-arms fire, but extremely large and sharp objects, or heavier firepower,will be able to penetrate it's armor plating and hull.Interstellar Vehicle Venture Star also known as ISV Venture StarThe IVS transports supplies, equipment, personnel, refined ore, and data between Earth and Pandora, but it never lands on Pandora's surface, it sends small ships, called Valkyries. It arrives on Pandora after more than one earth year. The passengers are asleep for the whole trip both ways.
Its hybrid fusion/antimatter engines hurl out incandescent plasma a million times brighter than a welding arc, with an exhaust plume twenty miles long. at the rear of the ship is mirror shield, which protects the ship from the intense light of the beamed-power laser from Earth when the laser is used for long term acceleration, and deacceleration. the Mirror Shield also acts as multi-layer interstellar debris shield during non acceleration stages of the flight
Engines are at the front, with the rest of the ship dragged behind, in order to reduce the structural mass penalty. The arrangement is based on the Valkyrie starship design.Scorpion Gunship or simply ScorpionA VTOL gunship and the designated term for a fire-support version of the RDA-created Aerospatiale SA-2 Samson. The gunships lack the basic cargo-carrying capacity and side-door guns of the Samson, but more than compensate for this with superior frontal firepower, while not lacking in the Samson's impressive speed and maneuverability. It is armed with triple-fire heavy machine guns, and numerous rocket and missile pods. Ground Assault Vehicle (GAV) JL-723 or SwanRDA's primary assault vehicle for nearly all terrain.
It has a gyrostabilized platform so when the it travels over rough terrain, the gunner platform is stabilized. The extended gunner's chair can rise up to 3.6 meters above the vehicle to see over obstructions between the gun and the target, like the long neck of a swan, hence the name. The gunner must ride high and unprotected, making him a primary target for the enemy and vulnerable to the smallest attack.
The six tires also have little armor protection, but are themselves made from a hybrid polymer blend, with titanium strands woven throughout, which make them very tough to puncture. For the under carriage, they've designed a 1.25-centimeter thick permalloy armor that expands to two-thirds of an in inch beneath the chassis to protect against the shrapnel from mines.
To protect the driver and spotter, a rudimentary roll bar exists, but it's rare that a Swan rolls over due to the stability of its gyroscopic system. Should it ever happen, gunners have learned from experience it is better to release the safety harness and jump clear, if there is enough time.
In the thick of the jungle and the vast expanse of the plains on Pandora, you’ll be thankful that you left Hell’s Gate with nothing but the best equipment on six wheels: The Swan. This 6x6 is built to take a bump, with its permalloy armor, and deliver a crushing blow to anything in its path with its four turret-mounted, sixty-millimeter rotary autocannons. Valkyrie TAV’s (trans-atmospheric vehicles)An aircraft used to transport equipment and personnel between ISV Venture Star and Hell's Gate on Pandora and its chief purpose is to bring Unobtainium to the spacecraft.
The two Valkyries carried by the ISV are used for transfer of personnel and cargo between the orbiting ISV and the surface of Pandora. These vessels are left at Pandora. The replaced Valkyries craft have been re-purposed to serve as automated gas harvesters, skimming through Polyphemus’s upper atmosphere to obtain hydrogen and deuterium for refueling the ISV.
The Valkyrie has VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) capabilities for landing on the planet.
