Enigmatic and wise, Peylak is the olo’eyktan of the Tlalim clan- a role that shares many similarities with the ship captains of Earth. Peylak oversees the nomadic lifestyle of the Wind Traders by managing the crews and vessels that make up their wandering fleet and guides them along their journey around Pandora. Whether commanding crews or resolving disputes, his extensive knowledge of the Wind Trader gondolas flight dynamics, as well as the wind currents and terrain of Pandora, secure his station and enable him to adapt quickly to adversity.

Fearful of aligning himself with Jake Sully’s war against the Sky People, Peylak hesitated when asked to ferry their family back to Omatikaya territory. However, in the face of growing hostility from Mangkwan raiders, he accepted Jake’s offer to fly as outriders and protect the fleet on their journey. After the attack on his caravan by Mangkwan raiders, his whereabouts are unknown.
