Jake Sully (Na'vi name: Tsyeyk Suli) [2] is the main protagonist of the first Avatar film, and a main character in Avatar: The Way of Water and Avatar: Fire and Ash. He also appears as a major character in the comics.
His story begins as a 22-year-old paraplegic Marine veteran of Earth's Resource Wars who takes over his murdered twin brother's RDA contract to be an avatar driver on the exomoon Pandora.
He is assigned by the RDA to infiltrate the Omatikaya clan of the Na'vi and convince them to leave their home. After three months of becoming a member, Jake defects and leads a revolt against the RDA in response to the company's destructive and murderous actions, expelling the company from the exomoon. Jake is given the leadership role from the current dying clan leader. Using a sacred tree, Jake's consciousness is permanently transferred into his avatar.
Years later, Jake and his mate Neytiri are parents of three biological children (Neteyam, Lo'ak, and Tuktirey) and their adopted daughter Kiri. When the RDA return, the Second Pandoran War begins and Jake is a major war leader of The Resistance. With the appearance of Recombinant soldiers, Jake renounces his leadership, and both he and his family flee from their forest home to take safe refuge with a reef clan, learning their ways. After several months, the Recombinants find Jake's family, and a skirmish ensures in which Neteyam (Jake's eldest son) is killed.
Later on, Jake encounters two new Na'vi clans and becomes involved in a conflict with Varang, the leader of the Mangkwan clan
