Dr. Grace Augustine was the outspoken head of the RDA AVTR program and was one of the world’s leading and most respective xenobotanists. She came to to Pandora nearly three decades before the massive conflict erupted between the Na’vi and the RDA, and spent most of that time trying to not only unlock the secrets of Pandora, but forge bonds between the humans and the indigenous Na’vi people. When the conflict between the Na’vi and RDA reached its inexorable climax, Grace went with her heart and sided with the Na’vi against the ruthless RDA.
