Grace Augustine/Relationships

Grace Augustine's relationships
== Family ==
=== Kiri ===
Kiri is the mysteriously conceived daughter of Grace's avatar.Although Grace has never met Kiri while alive, her daughter regularly visits her avatar in the lab and looks at her video logs. They first meet during Kiri's connection with Eywa in the Spirit Tree. Seeing her daughter, Grace hugs her and addresses her as "daughter"; both are very excited about the meeting. Grace is deeply affected by Kiri's problems which she asks about, but their meeting is cut short unexpectedly.
== Friends and Allies ==
=== Jake Sully ===
Jake is Grace's best friend.When Jake Sully first arrived on Pandora, Grace was rather hostile and rude towards him as she needed Jake's twin brother Tom who was killed by a mugger and therefore replaced by Jake. She also made a few condescending remarks about his intelligence, such as saying clearing his mind shouldn't be too hard for him, and calling him a jarhead dropout and numbnuts. She was also harsh and perhaps insensitive on him at times, despite that he was paraplegic and had lost a brother.
When Jake was adopted by the Omatikaya clan, her attitude soon changed towards him as Jake learned the ways of the Na'vi from Neytiri. Through Jake, Grace was allowed back into Hometree by Mo'at. As time went on, Grace and Jake formed a close friendship, and Grace opened up to him and began to respect him, viewing him like an equal ally. When Grace died during the consciousness transfer, Jake was distraught by her death.
=== Max Patel ===
Max Patel is one of Grace's loyal scientists in the Avatar Program.
Max Patel was one of Grace's original scientists of the Avatar Program and one of her few friends and allies on Pandora. When Grace, Jake and Norm were imprisoned by the RDA, Max, along with Trudy, helped them to escape with Max staying behind (by Jake's will) to be a spy inside Hell's Gate.
=== Norm Spellman ===
Norm is Grace's second friend.
Norm Spellman viewed Grace as a legend and impressed her with his knowledge of the Na'vi language. Grace and Norm got along well during their expeditions. When Grace was fatally wounded by gunfire from Quaritch during the avatar team's escape from Hell's Gate, Norm brought Grace's avatar to the Tree of Souls for the Omatikaya to transfer her consciousness permanently into the avatar. Norm was saddened when the consciousness transfer failed to save Grace due to her wound being too great.
===Mo'at===
Mo'at is the Tsahìk of the Omatikaya clan and Grace's friend.Mo'at is an ally of Grace and they have known each other for at least a decade before Jake's arrival, and the two worked together to help save the Na'vi when they became ill. Mo'at has never harbored any ill will for Grace, as Grace only sought to learn about the Na'vi and their world for the sake of knowledge. Due to Jake's progress as a warrior-in-training of the Omatikaya clan, Mo'at rewarded him by allowing Grace back into the village, where she was able to reconnect with several of her former students. When Grace died, Mo'at displayed a quiet sorrow and sadness at the loss of the doctor, and appeared genuine in her empathy for Jake, as he grieved for his friend.
=== Neytiri ===
Neytiri was Grace's student at school.
Neytiri was one of Grace's many Na'vi students and Grace said that she was, along with her sister Sylwanin, the best student she had taught. Grace also referred to her as an amazing girl. After Sylwanin's death, Grace lost contact with Neytiri but after Jake persuaded Mo'at to allow her into Hometree, she and Neytiri bonded once more. Neytiri was concerned for Grace when she learned that she was dying and was saddened when the consciousness transfer to save Grace failed.
When Kiri was born, Neytiri adopted her with Jake in honor of Grace.
=== Sylwanin ===
Sylwanin was Grace's other student at school.
Sylwanin was another of Grace's best students and Grace claimed that she and her younger sister, Neytiri, were both amazing girls. Sylwanin trusted Grace very much and treated her almost like a mother. She and several Na'vi hunters went to Grace's school hoping that she could protect them from RDA soldiers. Grace could not protect them. Sylwanin and the others were killed and none of Grace's students returned to the school. Grace was deeply affected by the death of Sylwanin and the other young Na'vi, and felt a great sense of sadness when none of her pupils returned to the school.
== Enemies and Rivals ==
=== Parker Selfridge ===
Parker Selfridge is the head of the RDA.
His views are the complete opposite of Grace's, which causes many clashes between the two. When Jake first comes to Pandora, she takes it as an insult from him. She is upset when Parker uses Jake as a resource for getting Na'vi information as well as when he refers to the Omatikaya clan as "fly-bitten savages that live in a tree."
=== Miles Quaritch ===
Grace has similar feelings towards Colonel Quaritch as she does towards Parker. Unlike most people, she isn't afraid to stand up to the Colonel as proven when she talks back to him. Quaritch eventually shoots Grace during the avatar team's escape from Hell's Gate, which eventually leads to her death.
