Writing the phrase “Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) is now showing in cinemas” still feels somewhat unbelievable and fantastical, even though it has become a reality. After years of anticipation, this much-awaited movie can finally be experienced by audiences around the world.

After an extraordinary eight postponements and more than ten years since its initial 2009 success, the follow-up to one of the most profitable feature films ever is finally set to be released in theaters on December 16th, 2022 – a timely arrival just as the festive season approaches.

Despite the fact that Avatar (2009) has been met with some criticism, those who are most vocal in their disapproval have still been highly anticipating what acclaimed director James Cameron has concocted for the first of four intended sequels. They are eagerly awaiting to gain insight into the imaginative and creative vision that he will bring to this anticipated follow-up installment.

20th Century Studios and their expansive parent company Disney have been extremely interested to gauge the reception of future films, which is why Avatar was brought back to theaters this past month, featuring all-new remastered visuals and updated content. This endeavor has allowed them to determine viewers’ reactions and preferences, giving them an invaluable insight as they move forward with further projects.

Set over ten years after the events of the first movie, Avatar 2 continues to follow Jake Sully and his wife Neytiri as they traverse Pandora’s alien environment. As a human-turned-Na’Vi, Jake is now a leader of the Omaticaya Clan alongside Neytiri and their newly formed family unit. The sequel will also have an aquatic theme as they explore this strange new world together.

The full cast is an eclectic mix of both fresh faces and beloved veterans, with the latter featuring a few names that may have caught fans off guard. These returning favorites promise to bring some exciting surprises for viewers, making this iteration of the show one to remember.

For those looking for a comprehensive guide on who will be joining, returning, and even being resurrected in the Avatar franchise with The Way of Water, this is your one-stop shop for all cast and character information. Here you’ll find detailed profiles of every actor and character that will be appearing in the upcoming sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender – from new additions to familiar faces stepping back into the spotlight. Plus, we’ve also included details about any characters coming back from beyond the grave, so you can keep up with the latest twists and turns of this highly anticipated show.

Jake Sully, played by Sam Worthington

Sam Worthington rose to international fame and acclaim after taking on the role of Jake Sully in the highly successful film franchise. His portrayal of the main character quickly made him a household name, with his performance earning him recognition from audiences all around the world. From that point onwards, he has been widely recognized as one of Hollywood’s most talented actors.

Jake, a disabled marine, was brought in by the Resources Development Administration due to his identical twin brother’s tragic death. His sibling had been killed during an ill-fated burglary attempt that had gone terribly wrong. As a result of this immense loss, Jake was taken in and provided assistance from the RDA so he could continue to lead a fulfilled life.

Tom, the brother of the individual in question, was a part of an ambitious initiative by the RDA – known as the Avatar program. This undertaking had a single purpose; to bridge the gap between humans and Na’Vi on Pandora through splicing human DNA with that of the native aliens. It was an audacious attempt to create harmony between two distinct species and ensure peaceful co-existence.

Jake, a novice marine, is introduced to the renowned scientist Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) and the esteemed Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver), who both provide him with a comprehensive education on his upcoming mission. They quickly bring him up to speed on all of the information he needs to know before sending him off in his new Avatar body.

Jake eventually encounters Neytiri, the daughter of the leader of the indigenous tribe, and is able to persuade them to allow him to join their society and learn their customs. He soon discovers that his new way of life comes with a set of unique challenges, but with Neytiri’s guidance, he begins to understand the complexities of living in harmony with nature. With patience and perseverance, Jake eventually wins over the Na’Vi people and proves himself worthy of being accepted into their culture.

Even though the sinister Colonel Quaritch (Stephen Lang) attempts to exploit Jake for his own purposes, Jake finds himself developing a strong affection for Neytiri and the Na’Vi people. This love drives him to take a courageous stance against the rapaciousness of the human intruders and fight to protect Pandora.

Jake achieved his goals and is now happily married to Neytiri, with whom he has built a loving family. Alongside their three biological children – Neteyam, Lo’ak and Tuktirey – they have also adopted two additional children; Spider who was outcast from the human race, and Kiri who is the miraculous offspring of Grace Augustine (played by Sigourney Weaver). Together they form a close-knit family unit.

For the past few years, Jake and Neytiri’s family have enjoyed a peaceful existence; however, their tranquility is soon to be disrupted when the human threat returns to Pandora. As such, they will be exposed to danger at an alarming rate. Consequently, they must find ways to protect themselves and their loved ones from any potential harm.

Jake is an extremely strict parent when it comes to his children, but this is only because he loves them deeply and wants them to be strong leaders of their people. He desires for them to become powerful Na’vi warriors that can lead their tribe to victory against the oppressive “sky people”. His tough parenting style may seem severe at times, but ultimately everything he does stems from a place of deep affection and respect for his children’s future.

As Neytiri, Zoe Saldaa

Zoe Saldaña is well-versed in the world of science-fiction, with her appearances in the Star Trek and Guardians of the Galaxy franchises, yet her portrayal of Neytiri stands out as one of her most heartfelt performances. Her characterisation is full of compassion and empathy, truly bringing this alien to life onscreen.

Neytiri is a respected and beloved member of the Omaticaya clan, the indigenous tribe living in the forest of Pandora. She is the proud daughter of Chief Eytukan and Spiritual Leader Mo’at, both wise and prominent figures in this ancient community. Neytiri has always been held in high regard by her family, friends, and peers due to her selflessness, courage, and strength.

She is an adept hunter and a crafty warrior, and when she notices Jake Sully hopelessly wandering around in the forest, she is about to terminate the “sky person”, as her tribe calls them, pretending to be one of their own. She readies herself for combat with great precision and intent, ready to fight if necessary in order to protect her people from this foreign intruder.

She suddenly finds herself pausing and looking up at the immense, ancient seed from the great Tree of Souls, a profoundly significant spiritual emblem for her tribe. Taking it as an omen from Eywa, their revered deity, she believes this outsider may have been sent to play an indispensable part in the destiny of Pandora.

Neytiri is successful in persuading her parents to let Jake join their tribe and become one of them, agreeing that he should learn their ways. She agrees to be his teacher and mentor, showing him the customs and traditions of her people. She teaches him how to hunt with a bow and arrow, how to traverse the land by using the trees as ladders, and how to bond and connect with some of the most powerful creatures on Pandora – the great leonopteryx or ‘banshees’.

Neytiri finds herself unwillingly drawn to Jake, even though she is promised in marriage to another Na’vi warrior, Tsu’tey. At first, her trust in the human intruder wavers as she witnesses the destruction of her home and the passing of Chief Eytukan. Despite this heart-rending tragedy however, Neytiri eventually regains her faith in Jake and works together with him to ultimately expel his species from their beloved homeland.

Neytiri’s life has undergone a tremendous transformation since then; she has taken on the mantle of motherhood with five children and is now the leader of her entire tribe. Despite these drastic changes, Neytiri remains steadfastly devoted to upholding her legacy as a badass warrior queen – an identity that she has proudly held for years.

Neytiri, as portrayed in the film, is an incredibly formidable warrior; even when confronted with the most challenging of circumstances – such as rescuing her beloved children from being held captive by some newly-created Avatars, one of which was occupied by a familiar foe – she remained resolute and capable of defending herself. Her courage and skill were evident throughout the entire ordeal.

Kiri, played by Sigourney Weaver

Incredibly, Sigourney Weaver is making a remarkable return to the world of Avatar, even though her character passed away in the previous instalment. It’s hard to believe that she will be appearing once again after her demise, but it looks like she will be back in some capacity!

Dr. Grace Augustine, an eminent specialist in all matters pertaining to Pandora and the leader of the Avatar program, represents a final glimmer of hope for a peaceful reconciliation between humans and Na’vi before they become embroiled in discordant warfare.

In an effort to foster better relations with the native Na’vi, she initiated the construction of an educational institution. This establishment has enabled many of the Na’vi to acquire proficiency in English and is seen as a significant contribution towards cultivating closer ties between them and other tribes.

She is hesitant to include Jake on her team, due to the fact that he has no knowledge of this world; yet, his admittance into the Omaticaya tribe sparks a blossoming relationship between them. Despite his inexperience and unfamiliarity with their environment, she grudgingly allows him to join her squad as they embark on their journey together.

Grace is one of the few brave souls that have aided Jake in his rebellion against the RDA, but unfortunately during a bold and daring attempt to overthrow them, she made an error in judgement and was tragically shot by Quaritch.

In an ultimate bid to preserve Grace’s life, Jake takes her to the revered tree of Eywa, where they perform a solemn ceremony in the hope of transferring her consciousness from her broken human form into her Avatar body. Despite their last-ditch effort, this desperate attempt at salvaging Grace’s existence may turn out to be their only option for saving her life.

Despite the failure of the ritual, as Grace took her final breath, she told Jake that she was with Eywa now and that this mysterious deity was indeed real. Her words gave Jake a sudden deep insight into the spiritual realm and reassured him that he hadn’t been wrong to believe in something so intangible.

How is Sigourney Weaver returning in Avatar: The Way of Water if Grace had passed away? Somehow, it appears that Grace had a child named Kiri who was adopted by Jake and Neytiri. This young Na’vi girl can be seen on the official poster for the movie. It remains unclear how Kiri is connected to the legacy of Grace but her presence offers an intriguing glimpse into what could come next for the Avatar franchise.

In the new film, Grace’s Avatar body is still present and in excellent condition. Kiri exhibits great fondness for this empty form of her mother, lovingly calling it her mom. The Avatar serves as a reminder of Grace’s spirit and presence, even though she is no longer there with them physically.

The birth of the child is nothing less than awe-inspiring and miraculous; yet, the film fails to provide a concrete answer as to how such an extraordinary event could possibly have come into being.

Nevertheless, the popular assumption is that Kiri is a consequence of the goddess Eywa’s failed attempt to revive Grace in Avatar: The First Movie; this supposition is supported by her extraordinary affinity with Pandora’s flora and fauna.

As Miles Quaritch, Stephen Lang

Yet another beloved character who appeared to have perished in the previous film, yet is miraculously returning for the sequel, is Stephen Lang as Colonel Miles Quaritch – the primary and overriding antagonist of Avatar’s first installment. His return will surely be a welcome sight for those eager fans eagerly anticipating his come back.

Quaritch was the formidable head of the entire “security” division of the RDA’s operations on Pandora; however, rather than simply overseeing security matters, he acted more like a leader of a private military force. He employed strict control over the activities and movements of those under his command and had an uncompromising attitude towards anyone who defied him. His authority extended far beyond that of a typical security chief, making him an intimidating presence throughout Pandora’s many territories.

At first, Quaritch seemed to have had an ulterior motive for wanting Jake to learn about the Na’vi and their home tree; his intentions were not as noble as those of Grace and her team who sought a path to peace. Rather, it was clear that he wanted to use this knowledge in order to gain some sort of advantage over the indigenous people of Pandora.

General Quaritch was determined to gain a tactical advantage over the Na’vi, so he devised a plan of attack that went beyond simply destroying their home. In order to completely weaken the native’s morale and cause them as much distress as possible, he opted to bomb both their retreat and most sacred location – the Tree of Eywa – thereby ensuring they had no safe haven or spiritual refuge.

What Quaritch did not foresee was Jake’s change of loyalties, with him eventually becoming the leader of the Na’vi in an intense battle against his own forces. This ultimately led to a dramatic two-on-one confrontation between Jake and Neytiri against Quaritch, culminating in their successful mission of finally vanquishing the mad colonel.

Or so they thought, as Quaritch has surprisingly returned for the sequel due to a DNA backup. In contrast to Sigourney Weaver’s Kiri, Stephen Lang’s depiction of the character is not a descendant or any other kind of relation to Quaritch; rather it is actually Quaritch himself in an entirely new Avatar body.

Technically, this is a clone of the infamous Colonel Quaritch that was created after he and a select number of his most elite soldiers were instructed to have their DNA and memories copied prior to the climactic battle at the end of the first movie. As a result, this new version of Quaritch has all of its predecessor’s memories up until that point in time.

The notorious Matt Gerald will reunite with Lang as Corporal Lyle Wainfleet, a villain from the last film who was undoubtedly killed off but seems to have been revived. He is now one of the key enemies in this most recent film, and Lang will certainly run into him once more.

If the RDA possess the capability to revive their most formidable fighters, this could result in a situation where Quaritch might gain immortality, never ceasing his relentless pursuit of vengeance against Jake and his relatives.

The pursuit of retribution is suddenly disrupted when Quaritch discovers that his own son has been taken in by the Sully family, which may lead to a transformation and change of heart for this nefarious character. This revelation could potentially begin a journey of redemption, providing an unexpected twist to the story.

Giovanni Ribisi as Parker Selfridge

Giovanni Ribisi reprises his role as Parker Selfridge in the sequel, who is essentially the sole major human antagonist to have survived the events of the first movie. As head administrator of the RDA, he is once again determined to exploit Pandora for its resources and power despite knowing that it could lead to many potential consequences.

Colonel Quaritch is often the name people associate with being the main antagonist of Avatar, but Parker Selfridge is actually his superior and holds far more power than him. He is the one who really controls the situation, while Quaritch’s role is merely to execute orders. Selfridge has all the capability to make significant decisions that could affect everyone in Pandora and beyond.

The RDA’s ultimate objective is to exploit the vast deposits of Unobtanium, an incredibly rare and highly valuable mineral, found exclusively on Pandora. The Omaticaya tribe are residing right on top of one of the largest reserves of Unobtanium in existence, making them a major obstacle preventing Selfridge from achieving his goal. Consequently, Selfridge will stop at no cost to rid himself of this problem and gain access to this precious material.

We last observed Selfridge being involuntarily removed from the planet, but viewers who attended the recent theatrical re-release of Avatar may have noticed that his ultimate scene was slightly elongated to impart a message to Jake: this struggle is far from finished.

Selfridge has a relatively minor, yet still notably malevolent, presence in the Avatar universe as portrayed in The Way of Water. His character is integral to the story, albeit on a much smaller scale than other characters, and despite his limited role he manages to leave an unmistakable impact with his maliciousness.

CCH Pounder as Mo’at

As Mo’at, the spiritual head of the Omaticaya tribe and the mother of Neytiri, Carol Christine Hilaria Pounder graces the silver screen in Avatar once more. This well-known actress is reprising her wildly famous part from the first film, offering fans a chance to get back in touch with this cherished character. Her portrayal of the independent matriarch is expected to enthrall viewers once more.

When Jake was first presented to the tribe, things were not looking good for him despite Neytiri’s attempts to explain her symbol from Eywa. Fortunately, Mo’at, the tribe’s spiritual leader, intervened and provided Jake with a chance he desperately needed.

Mo’at is a loyal friend to Jake, often coming to his aid whenever he needs it. She willingly frees him from any bonds that the Na’vi have placed on him in order to punish him for the perceived wrongs he has done against them. Moreover, she aids Jake in transferring his consciousness into his Avatar body permanently, providing invaluable help and guidance throughout this process.

Despite the fact that her late husband Eytukan has transferred his chief duties to Neytiri and Jake, Mo’at remains the ultimate authority on all matters concerning Eywa. The enigma of this powerful deity is sure to be developed further in future films, with more knowledge uncovered about its mysterious ways.

Mo’at’s presence in The Way of Water is limited to a fleeting appearance and her role can best be described as a cameo. Despite only appearing briefly, Parker Selfridge and Mo’at both have significant parts to play in the story, though for Selfridge his impact on the plot is far greater than that of Mo’at.

Joel David Moore as Norm Spellman

The final significant cast member to return is Joel David Moore, who is best known for his role in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. He will be playing the character of Dr. Norm Spellman, a close companion and the only remaining human ally to Jake.

Norm and Jake could not be more different from one another. Whilst Jake is a foolish, impulsive marine, Norm is an erudite and astute scientist who has devoted his entire life to researching the Na’vi. His intelligence and expertise make him the antithesis of Jake in almost every way imaginable.

He immediately develops a strong connection with his teacher, Grace, and stands by her and Jake when the RDA’s actions become increasingly hostile towards the Na’vi and result in an outbreak of violence. He is unwavering in his loyalty to them both as he recognizes that they are fighting for what is right.

In the climactic battle, Norm’s Avatar body perishes and he is awakened in his human form. He is seen at the conclusion of the movie, safe and sound but sadly unable to ever again inhabit a Na’vi form. Although he has lost his physical connection to Pandora, he still retains fond memories of his time there as an Avatar.

Many fans have speculated that Spellman may have had a romantic involvement with Grace and could, therefore, be the father of Kiri; however, it is probable that the true answer to this mystery lies in something far more otherworldly. Most likely, what we are witnessing here is the manifestation of a supernatural force at work.

Jamie Flatters as Neteyam

Neteyam, the eldest of the Sully offspring, is set to be the following in succession to preside over the Omaticaya clan. She is the oldest member of their biological family and thus destined to assume stewardship of her people.

Neteyam carries the weighty responsibility of being a role model to his siblings and demonstrating how to handle any potential conflicts they may face. He must acquire the essential skills necessary to become an exemplary leader if he is to emulate his parents’ successes.

As the eldest, Neteyam was frequently held to a higher standard by his father and often reprimanded when he did not meet it. His ambition of becoming a great leader was both thwarted and fulfilled, for despite his untimely death at the hands of Quaritch, he bravely gave his life in an attempt to protect his siblings from danger.

Jake and Neytiri are filled with sorrow as they mourn the loss of their firstborn child. Despite their grief, they can take some comfort in the knowledge that their son died a hero and has now found peace with Eywa, the spiritual deity of Pandora.

Britain Dalton as Lo’ak

Lo’ak Sully, the middle child in his family, has somewhat of an outsider status amongst his siblings. He is a bit more daring and rebellious in nature than most, but he finds refuge from his troubles by immersing himself in the wonders and mysteries of Pandora.

As seen in the tantalizingly brief preview presented at the conclusion of Avatar’s re-release, Lo’ak appears to have developed an unlikely friendship with a creature bearing some resemblance to a whale; this being known as a Tulkun. This implies that Lo’ak may be more comfortable interacting with animals than he is when engaging with other human beings, suggesting that his affinity for wildlife could be his saving grace in the long run.

Playing Tuktirey Sully is Trinity Jo-Li Bliss.

The third and youngest member of the family is Tuktirey, a child who we know relatively little about apart from her age. As the baby of the group, she seems determined to keep up with her older siblings in terms of skill and ambition – no matter what perils Pandora or human invaders may bring. Despite her young age, she is resolute in her desire to be an equal part of this tight-knit family.

With her oldest brother having departed, Tuk is well on her way to upholding the family tradition of honing her skills in order to become a powerful and valiant warrior; one who will vigilantly safeguard Pandora from any sinister forces that may seek to bring it harm.

Jack Champion as Miles “Spider” Socorro

Kiri and Miles “Spider” Socorro are two of the adopted children of Jake and Neytiri. Despite this, Neytiri doesn’t show as much support for Spider due to him being completely human, which is something she isn’t used to. Nevertheless, he still remains an important part of their family as they all share a bond that goes beyond any physical differences.

The unexpected news of Miles Quaritch’s son being revealed by Spider marks a dramatic turn in the story. Abandoned by the human colony after his father had perished, young Miles Jr. was too immature to endure the rigors of a lengthy and physically demanding journey back to Earth.

So, Jake and Neytiri welcomed him into their family, although the matriarch remained dubious of humans. Despite her reservations, they accepted him as one of their own, extending to him the same kindness and affection that is usually reserved for members of their tribe.

Being human, Spider is unable to breathe the air on Pandora and must rely on a rebreather in order to traverse unpressurized areas. This makes his already difficult life even more challenging, as he has to take extra precautions just to exist in this strange new world.

Despite the heroic effort displayed by his son, the father and son in this film still remain estranged at the end. The son has gone to great lengths to earn his father’s trust – even going so far as risking his life to save him in the ultimate battle. However, it appears that their relationship is still fragile and distant despite these attempts of reconciliation.

Kate Winslet as Ronal

Avatar: The Way of Water introduces a completely unique tribe of Na’vi referred to as the Metkayina Clan. This group is not merely a distinct set of Na’vi natives, but they are distinguished by their own culture and traditions that make them stand out from other members of the Na’vi species. With the arrival of this new clan comes an opportunity for viewers to explore more deeply into the culture and beliefs held dearly by these people.

The Metkayina, who live in close proximity to and even directly on the Pandoran sea, have some subtle evolutionary differences from their more land-locked counterparts, the Omaticaya clan. These differences include lighter blue skin tones, as well as more fin-like arms and tails that give them an aquatic advantage when traversing both land and water environments.

Ronal, the matriarch of this tribe and a character portrayed by renowned actor Kate Winslet – who has had a long-standing collaboration with James Cameron in the past – is undoubtedly the star of the show. Her expertise and experience bring a unique charm to this role, making it all the more compelling for audiences everywhere.

Ronal is the beloved husband of Tonowari (Cliff Curtis) and a devoted father to Tsireya (Bailey Bass) and Aonung (Filip Geljo). He appears to be expecting another bundle of joy soon, with a third child on the way. Ronal’s family is growing, delighting both their families and friends.

Ronal is undeniably a remarkable warrior leader for her tribe, exhibiting an impressive skill and aptitude for combat even while she prepares for an epic battle with a baby growing in her womb. She is admired by many of her peers for her dedication to the cause, displaying incredible strength and courage in the face of adversity.

Her fierce loyalty to her family members and a strong inclination to safeguard them from any conceivable risks, make her comparable to the character Neytiri. Yet she initially experiences difficulty with embracing the Sully family, who are running away from something, into her abode.

Cliff Curtis as Tonowari

It is not uncommon for individuals to become perplexed over the difference between James Cameron’s blockbuster Avatar movies and the immensely popular Nickelodeon animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender. Both properties share a name, but they are otherwise completely unrelated to one another.

In an amusing twist of fate, Cliff Curtis, the actor who portrayed Firelord Ozai in M. Night Shyamalan’s 2010 movie adaptation of The Last Airbender – a title that has received unanimous adoration from all – will be joining the cast of James Cameron’s upcoming production as Tonowari.

Tonowari is the leader and patriarch of the Metkayina Clan, with his wife and partner Ronal serving alongside him. As their father, he has two children – Tsireya and Aonung – whom he loves dearly and looks after devotedly. He is responsible for the well-being of his clan, doing whatever it takes to ensure they thrive and prosper in life. Tonowari takes great pride in being the Chief of the Metkayina people, a task which he carries out with commitment and dedication.

Chief Tonowari is granted full authority over the reefs of Pandora, enabling him to reign as the undisputed king of its oceans. His influence predictably stretches far and wide, allowing him to exercise considerable power and control throughout the planet’s waters. Ultimately, his role offers a unique form of sovereignty that makes him a key figure in protecting this planet’s underwater treasures.

Tonowari is adorned with striking facial tattoos, symbolizing his position as a leader and warrior. Curtis has acknowledged that the character of Tonowari and the Metkayinan culture draw heavily from real-life Maori culture. The intricate patterns of face tattoos are an integral part of Maori culture, signifying rank within their society and also offering spiritual protection in battle.

Tsireya and Aonung are played by Bailey Bass and Filip Geljo

The descendants of Ronal and Tonowari , Tsireya and Aonung, are the torchbearers for the Metkayina Clan’s future. They symbolize hope and promise for what lies ahead, carrying on their ancestors’ legacy in a way that will ensure its continuation into generations to come.

Similarly to many of their tribal counterparts, Tsireya and her brother Aonung are avid free divers, traversing the immense expanses of open ocean in search of any items that can be scavenged and used to benefit their tribe. Tsireya quickly develops an emotional bond with Lo’ak while her brother is quite similar in temperament and spirit to their father.

Payakan

The last major character is a silent yet powerful one, the ostracized Tulkun known as Payakan. This person has an abundance of things to communicate, although they are unable to actually speak. Despite their lack of verbal expression, Payakan’s presence and message can still be strongly felt throughout the story.

The remarkable Tulkun are much more than just aesthetically pleasing whale-like creatures; they possess an incredibly advanced level of intelligence that enables them to comprehend complex concepts and emotions. They have formed a special bond with the Na’Vi people, acting as their beloved siblings or guardians.

Payakan and Lo’ak form a strong connection with one another, despite being isolated from the rest of their peers. They are united in their shared experience of alienation, creating an unbreakable bond between them as they navigate through the difficult times of youth.

Payakan, a former member of the Tulkun clan, is no longer permitted to join them on their travels after he instigated an assault against the human hunters in retaliation for his mother’s death. This event resulted in a brutal massacre of both his own people and the Na’vi, causing great losses on both sides.

Despite his deeply held convictions and his people’s way of life that prioritize peace, Payakan ultimately decides to aid the Sully family in their struggle to vanquish Quaritch and his minions. He thus manages to atone for any past wrongdoings by going against the Tulkun code of ethics, which is based on concepts such as peacefulness and non-violent action.
