The Tipani clan was one of the first tribes to have contact with humans on Pandora, and yet less is known of this clan than any other Na'vi clan. Preliminary reports prove to be contradictory to say the least. The Tipani seem to be a very spiritual tribe, yet also cunning and highly dangerous warriors. They are reluctant to engage with diplomacy with humans, and yet they have embraced the study of Earth languages. Difficulties are ongoing, as the Tipani have not welcomed many Avatars into their trust, choosing to be unsettlingly standoffish when further integration is suggested.
