fill out the chart below as your muse. empty sheet under cut !

Lavender: represents purity, silence, devotion, serenity, grace, and calmness. Purple is the color of royalty and symbolizes elegance, refinement, and luxury.

Beige: is the color of simplicity and comfort. It can soothe and relax while being warm, inviting, and calming. At the same time, it is boring, basic, and plain. Bri is no one’s fantasy, but she could be someone’s home and comfort.

Song: “All in Blue” by Aeseaes is described as “a love song inspired by the bowerbird, who spends years constructing strange and elaborate nests out of stones and discarded spoons, and straws - often all in blue.” See it as her wanting to build/be a home for someone.

RDA SciOps and Industry-Sponsored Research

To understand Science Operations or SciOps and the research conducted on Pandora one has to understand what industry-sponsored research is and note that it differs from government or foundation investments. 

Individuals such as Dr. Ian Garvin, who runs the RDA’s Oceanography lab, are conducting research on Pandora under an industry-sponsored research agreement. Under contract, certain terms are negotiated around the specific goals and objectives of his research. Garvin is likely connected to a University and adheres to their research policies. His research, which seeks to understand the Pandoran oceans, is also publishable and his University is provided credit. Many academic articles and books have been written by scientists on Pandora along with popular texts to feed Earth's interest in the exo-moon. However, certain rights to his results or intellectual property may be made available to the sponsor (the RDA) so that they can use them to develop a commercial product. When Garvin discovers that amrita, a substance extracted from the dissected brain of a tulkun, is an agent that stops human aging, that discovery becomes the intellectual property of the RDA to package and profit from. 

Other projects such as creating ferals by cutting off the neural queue/kuru of viperwolves and thanators are likely conducted by research teams trying to understand the effects of the neural connection in Pandoran wildlife. However, they are also under contract to try to create a service for the RDA to control these creatures (perhaps for some sort of guard dog protection).

Also relevant is that industry contracts are typically milestone-driven. It starts with an agreed-upon portion of the project funding provided upfront to begin the research while future payments are dependent on defined project goals being achieved. If these timeline markers are not achieved, the sponsor (the RDA) can pull their funding. We see this with Dr. Grace Augustine’s Avatar Program being halted when her team failed to deliver the agreed upon results (she kept asking for more time) and with Garvin’s funding becoming dependent on the quotas of amrita being met.

This firmly plants the pursuit of profit at the expense of Pandora’s population and ecosystem, even if many of the researchers are at the same time conducting valuable research in their respective academic fields. Arguably, some teams may be looking for innovations in sustainable energy, pollution reduction, medicine, and so on which they believe will benefit humanity on Earth or sustain a human population of Pandora. However, this is not disconnected from the RDA’s for-profit mission to use that research for the benefit of their company.

One can see how easily ideological conflicts arise between researchers and the RDA sponsors, and how the RDA's hold on Pandora also has a hold on what type of research is conducted there.

The RDA and Black Market Trade of Pandora's Wildlife

Message Heard in the Hunting Lodge (Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora):

John Mercer: Harding, what is going on over there? Col. Harding: Just seeing some pushback from the Blues, as usual. John Mercer: Don’t give me that. I’ve seen the reports. Col. Harding: We have a lead on a major stash of zakru bone. We’re talking containers of it, a whole cargo hold.  John Mercer: Look, I don’t give a damn about your little treasure hunt. The moment it becomes a liability though, it’s gone.  Col. Harding: Understood. I’m pulling back to the extraction facility. Going to need some more room to maneuver. John Mercer: Do as you must. Mercer out.

Ah, Harding is poaching animals because of course she is, and planning to sell the stash on the black market back home on Earth to make more than her salary. Mercer overlooks it, but he’s starting to see her lose focus on RDA (and his) objectives and it becomes Harding's big mistake angering the Zeswa Clan in the area with her killings. As Mercer later tells her to pull back, "Your little black market has brought the blues to our doorstep," and losing his facility with it. 

The formation of such a side market is unsurprising, especially in the Western Frontier which is far from HQ and seems to be a place where anything goes. A case in point is how the hunting of the tulkun in the Pandoran Oceans is differently managed. The carefulness taken by Scoresby's team to not hunt too close to shore/Reef villages is to avoid incurring their wrath (as it did with the past incident involving Payakan). It is too valuable a resource to the RDA and needs to continue under the radar of the Resistance who remain outside the area at that time. Both Garvin and Scoresby underscore this point retelling the importance of the tulkun to the Metkayina when Quaritch plans to hunt close to their territories (again another big mistake ... seeing a pattern here).

We also learn at the end of the game (via General Ardmore's conversation with Harding) that Mercer's meddling in the Western Frontier was part of an executive power play. No wonder he was allowing Harding to poach because, in turn, she was aiding his positioning. The loss of the Western Frontier also further explains the events of The Way of Water, that is, Project Pheonix's/the Recom Project's unleashing and the control of SecOps over Pandoran operations. It was time for new tactics.

8. Did they have pets as a child? Do they have pets as an adult? Do they like animals?

Super detailed questions about your OCs (accepting) ᠂ ⚘ ˚

It’s become a running joke that Bri and animals don’t mix. Voted most likely to be kicked off a horse or pecked by a hen. Spending time between divorced parents' homes growing up meant pets were a no. It simply wasn’t an interest to her working/busy parents to keep pets either. Similarly, her non-stop work schedule as an adult is not conducive to owning any. She recalls her French grandmother owning a pair of colorful love birds that she liked to watch as a child; she also recalls one pecking her finger hard enough to make it bleed. It’s not that she dislikes animals, she simply doesn’t know how to act around them and domesticated or not, she doesn’t trust them. As the joke goes, animals can sense her hesitance/uncertainty/fear and it never ends well (jk I'm just mean).

Understanding the RDA's Mission to Colonize Pandora

RDA General Frances Ardmore: “As on world commander, I have been charged with a greater mission. Earth is dying. Our task here is to tame this frontier. Nothing less than to make Pandora the new home for humanity. But before we can do that, we need to pacify the hostiles.”

Avatar 2 gives humans the new objective of colonizing Pandora for human life, threatening to complicate what appears as a better-wrapped "good" versus "evil" conflict. 

Earth is dying by 2170 due to the effects of mass deforestation, resource depletion, air pollution, famine, human overpopulation (20 billion people), climate change, rising sea levels, mass flooding, extreme weather events, energy crisis, and constant warfare over remaining resources. Humans and animals face extinction on a grand scale. Most large megafauna such as whales are already extinct. Half the fish species are gone due to overfishing and toxification. It is an inhospitable place to live and nothing humanity does can turn back the clock on the planet's dying ecosystem.

The RDA shoulders some blame but they are also at the forefront of finding solutions to the crisis. The RDA's formation of orbiting factories on the Moon, Mars, and the solar system’s asteroid belts in the 21st century produced atmospheric toxins that rained down into the earth's habitats. However, the megacorp is also responsible for creating vast sea farms of edible protein and nutrient-rich algae (flavored with spices) to feed the population cheaply and effectively. Algae would become the staple food for many humans and for those living on the Moon. They also constructed a sustainable mass transit system (or maglev) connecting the entire globe. However, it requires unobtanium to function.

The procurement of unobtanium became a primary focus of the RDA's space exploration. This highly-valuable ($20 million per kg) rare-earth compound and energy superconductor was once only theorized on Earth (c. 1911) until it was found in abundance on the exo-moon of Pandora. As you can imagine, the crisis of humanity inevitably turned sights on extraterrestrial worlds. Earth’s space programs evolved to a point where a manned mission to the Alpha Centauri System, a nearby trinity star system, became possible. There they found the “Goldilocks planet” (or exo-moon) of Pandora held vast resources of unobtanium, after which the RDA began its mass mining operations. 

However, unobtainium is not the key to Earth’s survival. The RDA never markets it as such and rather it's all about profit. They are also unsurprisingly suppressing the search for other energy superconductors to maintain their market monopoly. This makes the justification to mine the exo-moon entirely based on capitalistic greed and power and not much else. It should be noted that the Na’vi have no use for the resource, their laws actually forbid them from mining Pandora for metals. The RDA takes what is not being used. The conflict instead arises from mining in or around sacred sites and living spaces, environmental devastation, and ecosystem disruption, which the Na'vi Resistance rightly deems inevitable despite any treaty or negotiation that could be made (as Avatar: The High Ground graphic novel makes more clear).

But what happens when the mission becomes something grander than resource collection? Leading up to this, the RDA attempted to colonize Mars, but the planet is not terraformed enough to sustain a large human population. This failure would spark a colonization effort of Pandora with the massive construction of Bridgehead City thus making the moon not only a primary source of unobtanium but a possible home to house humanity in the future. Importantly, unlike other resource-barren places of attempted colonization (Mars, the Moon), the unobtanium (and oil) present on Pandora could fuel the human habitat in the process.

Propaganda from a non-governmental megacorp and what will primarily benefit the rich elite aside (not even touching amrita here though again capitalistic exploitation gets inserted into it), the effort to “save humanity from certain extinction” by taming the next frontier carries a "moral weight" or "greater good" most humans on Earth would support without heed to the destruction caused. Not to say there's no RDA opposition on Earth from competitors and anti-corporate activists, however.

One could (and characters in the franchise do) blame the Earth's dying condition on the humans present, saying they should reap what they sow. But the current generation was doomed from the start and in reality, had no hand in it. They were born into this dying world thus they can only have their hands on solutions.

It is the RDA that holds the monopoly for off-planet solution-making. Their for-profit premise will never go away (and be a detriment to their purpose), and their actions on Pandora will remain extremely problematic for its environment and its inhabitants. Still, one can perhaps understand how the push for space colonization could happen in a realistic dystopian future and why someone would sign a 5 or 6-year contract believing they are doing what’s right. But, and let's not forget, it is much more likely RDA workers are victims of Earth's dire economic situation where taking a job over four lightyears away is their only choice for their or their family's economic survival.

Brianne is a RDA corporate director, not a scientist or researcher as the majority of members working for the SciOps subdivision she runs. She answers only to the Administrative Head, Charles Stringer, while all workers within her subdivision, including lab heads, answer to her. The second Pandoran Operation is considerably larger than the previous campaign thus it requires a larger administrative team. 

Avatar: Adapt or Die, Vol. 1: Grace Augustine, former Avatar Program Head, speaking with Parker Selfridge, former RDA Head Administrator

As director, she is tasked with oversight, keeping the labs, programs (including the restarted Avatar Program), and its workers running both physically and financially. The latter includes allocating funding to labs and programs and advocating for research project needs amid limited resources. This task is easier said than done especially when the bigger picture (and the value of certain research projects) is not acknowledged or more so not understood administratively. See (under [read more]) Grace Augustine’s accusation of former head administrator, Parker Selfridge who did not recognize the value of creating a school to teach Na’vi children.

Brianne tries to function as a bigger-picture administrator who does not dismiss seemingly low or slow-yield research. At the same time, she remains financially inclined and understands the need to meet the expectations of the RDA. 

Research is always at the mercy of resources and researchers constantly need to validate their program’s viability. Budget cuts happen. An example is marine biologist Ian Garvin’s ocean research, which Brianne advocates as high value. His forthcoming discovery of amrita (an agent that stops human aging found in the glands of tulkun) proves as much. The problem is that what was research transitioned into a resource hull and the mass hunting of tulkun to procure product to fund the operation. The ocean exploration was overtaken by CetOps (the naval arm) and the imposition of a quota to fulfill. Just as the RDA will not stop mining unobtanium, Brianne can do little to stop the hulling of amrita. She did, however, advocate for Garvin to continue his research alongside the CetOps hunters (to keep an eye on operations, reporting back to her, and making sure they don't hunt near the coastline villages which would cause even more hostility with the Metkayina who view the tulkun as sacred).

When the hostilities with the Na’vi resistance escalate and SecOps places the entire operation in the RDA's version of martial law, many SciOps programs are strained. The director's hands may be even more tied, but she doesn't stop advocating for her subdivision's needs. As always she's tireless with this, but not perfect. She's both Grace Augustine and Parker Selfridge combined.

In her teens and uni years when she visited her mother in France, she often signed up for French cooking classes as something to pass the time. Cooking is a casual hobby and a form of stress relief, but her job leaves her without much time to engage in it. Also, due to this lack of time in the kitchen, she sticks to a small list of favorite recipes and rarely ventures from them. Others would say her food is good (these recipes are fail-safe) and especially so because she can afford to use the highest quality ingredients.  While she eats like a mouse and isn’t a foodie per se, cooking (and certain comfort meals like a British Sunday roast) is something she comes to surprisingly miss when she lives on Pandora. Not much good can be said about RDA rations and processed food. Though much of Earth’s overpopulation subsists on edible protein and processed algae (straight from the RDA's sea farms), a rich person like Brianne could get her hands on real proteins and organic produce.

Bri has zero baggage. No traumatic past, no lost loves or loved ones, no harm was ever done to her. Her tragedy is always her present; her loss of self to work and the further it moves her away from what she desires most in life.
