Spider Help

Miles "Spider" Socorro is a sixteen-year-old boy who was born in Hell's Gate as the son of Colonel Miles Quaritch and Paz Socorro.

Following the death of his parents, Miles remained on Pandora and was adopted by Nash McCosker and Mary following the Pandora War. Miles was infatuated with Jake Sully's family and spent a considerable amount of his time with them. He was given the new name Spider due to his climbing abilities. In order to feel more fitted in with the Na'vi, he has grown his hair into Na'vi-style dreadlocks and paints his body with Spartan fruit dye to mimic the Na'vi's body stripes.

Miles Socorro was born on Pandora in 2154, on the Resources Development Administration colonial base Hell's Gate, to Paz Socorro and Miles Quaritch. Quaritch knew about his birth and before taking the Recom treatment, believed he was being sent back to Earth. His mother was later killed during the assault on the Tree of Souls, while his father was defeated and killed at the hands of Neytiri. Following the Na'vis victory over the RDA, Miles was too young to be sent to Earth with the rest of the humans and was thus taken in by McCosker and Mary, who were allowed to remain on Pandora. Despite having a foster mother, Miles wishes that his real mother was still alive and keeps a photograph of her near his bed in his room. He was given the nickname "Spider" due to his natural ability to climb even as a small child, though Pandora's low gravity has also aided in this. Despite being a human, Spider always felt like a Na'vi at heart, preferring to spend his time in the jungles of Pandora while wearing an exopack and carrying a folding knife for self-defense. [3] This has frustrated his adoptive family, who have attempted to get him to spend more time with humans with little success. [2] He was infatuated with the Sully family, [3] considering Lo'ak, Kiri, and Tuktirey his true family, though he was not as close to Neteyam. [6] Neytiri, however, always viewed Spider as one of the people who destroyed her home, [2] believing him to be of her own kind, and thus acted aloof with only a basic amount of respect towards him. [3] Likewise, Spider did not entirely consider Jake and Neytiri to be his adoptive parents, referring to them as "Mr. and Mrs. Sully". [2] Spider became especially close to Kiri, the family's adopted daughter, and she gave him the nickname "Monkey Boy".

As a teenager, Spider accompanied the rest of the family to Lo'ak's Iknimaya ritual. Though he himself could not be linked to a mountain banshee, he loved the expanse of the Hallelujah Mountains and willingly participated in this difficult journey to the Banshee Rookery. Not long before the humans returned to Pandora, the Omatikaya clan moved to a new Hometree. On this occasion, Spider wanted to join Sully's family circle, but Neytiri pointed out that this was a "family" celebration, implying that there was no place for Spider. Kiri, however, insisted that he stay. Soon after, he and Kiri snuck into the RDA base where the two watched Jake's old video logs. They also confided in each other about their feelings about their parents whom they did not know. Spider also hinted that Neytiri would hate him. Later, Spider, Kiri, Lo'ak, and Tuk decide to go secretly exploring because the clan is involved in a "boring" council meeting. They visit the old battlefield from the Pandora War, where they find a human skeleton in the cockpit of a Samson. Lo'ak and Spider end up almost accidentally killing Kiri and Tuktirey when the Samson goes down. Spider begins to run out of oxygen and the kids try to find their way back home. Meanwhile, Jake and Neytiri form a search party for the kids. They eventually find them. Jake blames Lo'ak, though Spider admits that he deserves some blame as well. Neytiri agrees that Spider is to blame and orders him to stay away from Kiri, claiming that they will never see each other again.

After the RDA announces their plans to return, Max Patel insists that Spider stay with the McCoskers, Kiri insisting that he accompany them to High Camp. McCosker finds the two and tells Spider to come with him. Although Jake and Neytiri think that Spider is better off with his foster family, Kiri becomes angry and runs away. However, he later decides not to leave Spider behind. Kiri, Lo'ak, and Tuk go to Hell's Gate to find Spider after he hears knocking on his bedroom window. They are soon found by McCosker, who says that they can be useful, however, he traps Spider and the brothers in separate rooms. Spider manages to escape his cell by using a fire extinguisher to knock out the windows and rescues the Sully children. The children flee into the woods with the RDA following them. Jake and Neytiri catch up to them and the entire family reunites. As the family engages in another chase, Spider briefly struggles to catch up to them due to him being a human. After a series of events involving a crash landing in the ocean, the group is rescued by Wu Mingxia and Norm Spellman.

In 2170, after the Sullys attacked a Mag-Lev, Spider, Kiri, and Lo'ak visit the linking station, where Grace Augustine's avatar is located. Kiri wanted to visit her mother and view her video recordings, which Spider watched with a mix of sympathy and envy. An argument ensued between the boys over who Kiri's father was, with them unanimously, albeit jokingly, pointing at Norm. After a while, Spider became serious and stated that sometimes it's better not to know the identity of your father, referring to Miles Quaritch, to which Kiri assured him that he was not the same as his father and doesn't have to be. Later, while exploring the forest with Lo'ak, Kiri, and Tuk with the exception of Neteyam, they are captured by the Recom Squad. Quaritch's Recom identifies Spider as the son of his human counterpart. Quaritch is surprised that he has not been sent to Earth, to which he replies that babies cannot be put into cryosleep. While held hostage, Spider witnesses a recording of Quaritch's final moments as a human, the fight with Jake and Neytiri killing him with her arrows. As Jake and Neytiri rescue their children, Spider accidentally trips and falls where he is kidnapped by the squad.

He is soon put in a cell and struggles to get out, hitting the window with a chair like a savage, as described by the guard watching him. Shortly afterward, he is psychologically tortured by General Frances Ardmore to find out where the Sullys are, using a machine called the NeuroSect that can analyze his thoughts, but is able to endure it even after it gives him a nosebleed. Quaritch took pity on the boy, who stopped the device and asked Ardmore for a personal audience. While in a cell, Spider is approached by the Recom Quaritch who attempts to act as a father figure towards him. Spider is given the human Quaritch's dog tag, but throws it across the room, prompting the Recombinant to claim that he is not the same as his father. Though uncooperative and unaware of Quaritch's assassination mission, Spider reluctantly agrees to help Quaritch. During later expeditions into the wilds of Pandora, Spider taught the recombinants, among others, the Na'vi language, laughing at their inept attempts to communicate in it. On another occasion, they travel to the banshee colony in the Hallelujah Mountains to tame their own banshees and ease their passage through Pandora. Quaritch intended to use tranquilizers to make things easier, but Spider laughed at him, saying that even Na'vi children could handle the ikran with their bare hands. This touched the ambitions of the Colonel, who pounced on the chosen banshee, and after a long struggle managed to bond with the animal.

One day, while Spider is flying with Quaritch, he teaches him how to say "I see you", but they are interrupted when the Bridgehead personnel detect on radar the presence of a Samson heading for the offshore archipelago several hundred kilometers away from the jungle. Quaritch took this as confirmation of his suspicion that Jake had run away from home. Taking Spider and the rest of the Recoms squadron with him, he got the crew of the SeaDragon to cooperate and had them drive through the archipelago to find Sully. During the journey they arrive at the Ta'unui clan village, Quaritch begins to forcefully interrogate the villagers on Jake's location in which the villagers along with the Ta'unui Olo'eyktan refused to reveal under Tonowari's orders. This led to Quaritch's squad ordering an ilu to be killed, much to Spider's shock along with the clan, and then threatens to kill the Tsahik if Spider does not make it clear to the Olo'eyktan, but he replied that he would not and then anguishedly pleads with Quaritch to forgive her as this was wrong. The clan claims that they have no knowledge of Jake Sully's location as they knew nothing about him, prompting Quaritch to order his squad to burn down the village. As the villagers were horrified at their home being burned, Spider tells the people that he is extremely sorry before being forced to leave.

Spider is taken aboard the Cet-Ops S-76 SeaDragon when Quaritch agrees to let Mick Scoresby, the ship's captain, complete his tulkun hunting quota. Spider watches a broadcast and witnesses in disgust as the RDA brutally kills the female tulkun Ro'a. As the adults applaud and cheer that they were able to hunt a tulkun, he becomes teary-eyed, especially after seeing the Ro'a hatchling curious about its deceased mother. When the RDA extract amrita and Ian Garvin explains the process, Spider is horrified that they only extract the amrita and then dump her corpse into the ocean. When Quaritch captured Lo'ak, Tuk, and Tsireya, the daughter of the Metkayina clan leaders, Spider decided to mutiny, rushing to their aid but being stopped by soldiers and taken back to the bridge. He was on the bridge during Payakan's attack on the ship and the skirmish at Three Brothers Rocks. When one of the propellers catches fire, Spider takes the opportunity to knock out pilot Ward with a fire extinguisher. He sabotages the carrier's rudder controls, causing it to accelerate out of control towards the nearby reef. It passes over them, crash-lands, immobilized, and immediately begins to sink. Spider is eventually rescued by Lo'ak and Neteyam and the three attempt to escape, though Neteyam is fatally shot.

Spider helps carry Neteyam to the nearby rocks. When Neteyam succumbs to his wound, Spider sheds tears for him. When Jake wants to return to the SeaDragon to rescue Kiri and Tuk, Spider reveals that he knows their location and they both return to the ship. Spider stays out of the way as Jake and Neytiri begin slaughtering the survivors. When he sees an enraged Neytiri, Spider is horrified and hides from her. When Quaritch holds Kiri at knifepoint, Neytiri grabs Spider and holds him at knifepoint as well. Using him as a bargaining chip, she lightly slashes his chest as a warning. Quaritch releases Kiri due to his compassion for the boy. The ship begins to sink and during Jake's fight with Quaritch, the two begin to drown and Spider and Kiri are separated from Neytiri and Tuk. They meet up with Lo'ak and tell him that Jake, Neytiri, and Tuk are trapped inside the ship. Spider helps find Jake, but finds Quaritch unconscious and is at first hesitant to save him, however he reluctantly rescues him, brings him to the surface, and leaves him on the nearby rocks, where he regains consciousness. Quaritch begs his son to come with him, however he refuses and leaves, much to his dismay. Spider returns to the Sully family and is embraced by Jake. During Neteyam's funeral, Spider holds Kiri's hand underwater as Neteyam's body is buried.

Spider is a kind and witty boy who feels guilty for what the humans have done to Pandora. Having been raised by the Na'vi, he has developed empathy for them and has always admired them, both literally and metaphorically, going so far as to paint himself blue to be more like them and has displayed several of their mannerisms. He enjoys nature, which gives him and Kiri a common interest to bond over. Because he is not as big and fast as the Na'vi, Spider finds himself in a position where he must persevere and strive to keep up with the Sully family. Spider is very loyal to the Na'vi, doing everything he can to buy time and even telling Ardmore that he would rather die than reveal the Na'vi's location. He attempts to divert the Recombinants away from the Na'vi, while also wanting them to turn away from the RDA and reform them by teaching them the ways of the Na'vi. He is one of the few humans who developed a deep connection to the world of Pandora, trying to learn about the traditions and culture of the Na'vi, similar to Grace or Jake. Spider also shows compassion for other living beings, such as the tulkun, and is visibly distressed upon watching a live feed of them being hunted by humans. He is dismayed that the rest of the Cet-Ops do not seem to care about their lives, seeing them only as beings to be harvested and exploited, and is particularly upset when the RDA only extracts their amrita and does not bother to at least use most of their bodies as resources afterwards. His compassion for others even leads him to save Quaritch's life. Spider can also have a rather strong temper and attitude when agitated, using language such as "moron". He is exceptionally strong-willed, able to withstand interrogation by the RDA for a long period of time.

From a very early age, while growing up in the forest, Spider acquired speed, agility, cunning, and fighting skills virtually unknown to humans. This is partly because Pandora's gravity is lower than Earth's. Like the Na'vi, he learned to read clues and pick up the faintest sounds, use a bow, climb the dangerous Hallelujah Mountains, and successfully fight to survive in Pandora's harsh environment. He can also swim and is able to hold his breath for even a few minutes. Unfortunately, despite his deep desire, he is unable to live a full life as a Na'vi, as his weaknesses include his reliance on exopacks and lack of a tail to connect with other life forms.

"Socorro" means "help", "assistance" or "relief" in Spanish and Portuguese. It is also an actual Spanish/Latin surname with geographical roots in the Canary Islands. He appears to be skilled with the bow, it apparently being his weapon of choice. There's also a bit of a running gag with Spider using fire extinguishers. He uses a fire extinguisher to break out of his cell in The High Ground, then uses a fire extinguisher to knock Ward unconscious. When Spider is in the GDR cell, just before he says "Let me out of here!", you can see him making an obscene gesture to the camera.

Physique: He is a tall boy for his age, he has a muscular physique since he likes to climb almost always. His hair is dark blond and he has it in long, thick dreadlocks. He dresses in a simple loincloth, which luckily is somewhat revealing but he doesn't seem to care. His feet are adapted to step on almost anything, since he never wears shoes and spends his time climbing trees with bare feet. Personality: He is a really cute boy when you meet him, very outgoing, if he trusts you and comes to love you he will have a huge loyalty to you. But if he doesn't like you he will probably treat you in a rude way, making fun of you and trying to always show you that he is better than you to the point of insulting you. He is a competitive person. He quickly becomes fond of people. Being so agile he likes to play around a little, scaring the people he loves by hiding in nature and then coming out from behind them out of nowhere.
