This world has a more intense, fiery aesthetic, with visuals that elevate the landscapes and geography in even more vivid detail. Discussing the "Ash People," James Cameron described them as representing the darker side of the Na'vi and drew inspiration from real-world anger and rage. “There’s a lot of anger and rage in the world we live in right now,” Cameron said, explaining that the Ash People are a nomadic tribe who travel through the air. Their homeland was devastated by volcanic eruptions, leaving them to resent nature and everything the forest Na'vi holds sacred.
