BIOGRAPHY
Widowmaker, age: 33
Occupation: Contract killer
Base of Operations: Annecy, France
Affiliation: Talon
“ONE SHOT, ONE KILL.”
Widowmaker is the perfect contract killer: patient, efficient, emotionless and ruthless.
It is believed that in her previous life Widowmaker was married to Gérard Lacroix, an Overwatch agent who led operations against the Talon terrorist organization. After several failed assassination attempts on Gérard, Talon decided to target his wife Amélie. Agents of Talon kidnapped her and subjected her to an extensive neural reconditioning program. They broke her will, suppressed her personality, and reprogrammed her into a sleeper agent. Eventually, she was tracked down by Overwatch agents and freed. She seemed to have survived everything unscathed and returned to her normal life.
Two weeks later, she killed Gerard while he was sleeping.
With her mission now complete, Amélie returned to Talon, and there they completed the process already begun to transform her into a living weapon. She underwent intensive training in infiltration and silent killing. In addition, changes were also made to her physiology: her heart was slowed, causing her skin to cool and turn a shade of blue. Her ability to feel emotions was further weakened as a result. Amélie was finally a thing of the past.
Currently, Widowmaker is Talon’s most effective killer, in part because she can feel little more than the feeling of satisfaction after a job is done.
OVERWATCH HEROES
Heroes are the main element in the game Overwatch, as the player can freely choose between them and their class and later play them.
In Overwatch you’ll find a variety of heroes: from the time-traveling adventurer to the armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior to the meditating robot monk. Each of the heroes plays differently, so mastering their abilities will only unlock their full potential. No two heroes are alike.
In Overwatch you can expect an international team of powerful heroes, each of whom has made a name for himself in his own way.
OVERWATCH
Overwatch is a team-based 6vs6 shooter that was released on May 24, 2016. Overwatch stays true to the true style of Blizzard’s previous titles. It was developed by Jeff Kaplan and is considered a “new concept” shooter in the FPS genre. The game was officially unveiled at BlizzCon along with 12 heroes on November 7, 2014.
The story of Overwatch is set on a highly fictionalized future version of Earth. In a time where humans and robots, which are called Omnics, live together (Chris Metzen hinted that the story deals with this very robot race). 30 years before the time when Overwatch takes place, the so-called “Omnic Crisis ” occurred. The robots, once helpers of humans, rebelled against their creators for reasons as yet unknown and triggered a worldwide chaos. Faced with the imminent destruction of human civilization, the best soldiers of all nations came together to form a program called “Overwatch”.
Their job was to protect the world from the Omnics, which they succeeded in doing. For the next 25 years, they were the protectors of the planet, united in an international coalition. Some agents stayed, some were replaced, but at some point something changed: the Overwatch disintegrated. However, 5 years later after this event, incidents with Omnics are again accumulating, a worldwide terrorist organization also seems interested in destabilizing the world order. A new crisis is looming. At this point, your career as an Overwatch agent begins.
