You walk in to orientation to see a large man, white hair, with three long scars on his face.
"Good Morning recruits. I believe this will probably be your only good morning here. If there is a hell, you might want to go there for some R and R after you leave Pandora, IF you leave. Outside of here, every living thing wants to kill you and eat your eyes for jujubees. There is an indigenous population here called the na'vi. They are ten feet tall, very agile, and their bones are reinforced with a naturally occurring carbon fiber. They are very hard to kill. My job here is to keep all of you alive. I will not succeed. Not with all of you."
After a lot of words, you continue on to your department, where you'll be working: The research labs. You're welcomed by a tall, gangly man named norm
"Hi, you're Carmine, right? Carmine Rouge? This is where we'll be working."
He leads you past several large tank where some very large blue aliens appeared to be sleeping.
"These are the Avatars."
"Avatars?"
"You haven't been briefed on that yet? Well, the concept, is to drive these remotely controlled bodies called avatars. We grow them from human DNA, mixed with DNA of the natives, the Na'vi. We get into these links, and our consciousness is put into these, so we can move around the world without worrying about not being able to breathe."
The same red-haired lady from before walks up
"Oh, Dr. Augustine, This is Carmine Rouge, he's with the Avatar project with us. Carmine, this is Grace Augustine, she's in charge of the whole thing."
"You shake her hand.
"You little squirt." She says. "You're in this project? Oh God, I can tell this is going to F*** this up"
She walks out
"Well, I think she likes me." you say.
"Oh, don't worry." Comforts Norm. "She may be slightly abrasive, but she's got a good heart."
