Personality:
Biography: Tamara was born into a military family, with both her mother and her father serving when she was born. She was used to moving around every three or four years, but her greatest worry was when she was only eighteen when the Omnic crisis started. Her parents fought only briefly before the newly created Overwatch stepped in and ended the crisis, and inspired Tamara even more to enlist and protect her country.
She always had a knack for infiltrating and breaching, but even the best can be captured. She was tortured by her captors and experimented on with a neural interface, allowing her to connect with simple computers, but with great strain on Tamara's mind and body. Eventually, she was rescued and broken out, but not after being bound to an exo-skeleton, which did little more than further tax Tamara.
When she returned to America, Tamara went through therapy and rehabilitation, though only with less than moderate results. Years passed since her rescue, and she was unable to return to duty after many months being spent worked to death with little to no sleep and food.
It wasn't until unknown faces and technologies started taking over her rehabilitation center that Tamara noticed that something was up. Soon, just about everything aside from the interface itself was removed from Tamara, and she was nearly as healthy as a horse.
Overwatch had taken over her rehab center, intent on bringing her back into the field after making her more able with her interface and a new exo-skeleton, as well as a few additional toys. Her first mission, report to Watchpoint Udo for further instructions.

GALVANO

Full Name: G4LL-v4.0

Aliases: GALVANO

Age: ??

Appearance:


Height: 160 cm
Weight: 120 kg (equipment not included)

Sexual Orientation: Toaster, er I mean Omnic

Role: Scrounger, Scout, Survival Expert, Technician.

Hobbies: Creating small moving machines out of junk he finds

Likes: Life, be it carbon-based or otherwise

Dislikes: Pessimists, murderers

Abilities:
LIFE INCARNATE - Create a functioning mech out of various junk found in the area. The size and abilities of the mech vary with the junk found and Galvano's will. But usually it's some sort of dog.
SECOND WIND - Repair any kind of equipment, heal Omnics. Does not replenish energy of depleted devices, but can replenish ammo if the materials are present.
LAST BREATH - Cause the junk at a nearby area to lash out. This is useful for clearing out debris or to make an enemy lose their footing.
MOMENTUM - A slow attack that is almost unstoppable if Galvano has the proper footing. Best used as a "melee siege weapon".

Tools and Weapons: A heavy club made from a very hard metal is Galvano's main tool for self defense. He also posesses climbing gear for hard-to-reach locations, mapping tools, high-power monocular and some junk he always keeps on his person.

Family: Unknown

Relations with other Team Members: TBA

Personality: In human terms, Galvano has the personality of a 10 year old child. His commander in Overwatch discovered this far too late in the Omnic's service. But it is not that Galvano is immature - he is incorrigibly optimistic. Even when going to war, he knows the enemy can be saved.

Biography: Galvano is strange, even for an Omnic. He began modifying his body at a young age - and at first appeared to be devolving, until his owners noticed he was actually experimenting. He was built to work in construction, and these modifications made him less efficient, so he was promptly scrapped. But instead of being destroyed, he managed to escape, posing as metal refuse from the construction site and hiding in the junkpile. That is, until the omnic crisis began.

For a few months after gaining true consciousness, his experiments were of an internal nature - thoughts, ideas, dreams. He underwent ridiculously fast evolution, forced upon him by the God Programs. Eventually, he began thinking of life - how making buildings was not that different than making Omnics. Or people. And he decided to return to the city, to share his new findings and ideas with others.

But the city was up in flames. The omnic factory was producing machines of war, up to its technological limit. The streets steamed with laser fire and explosions. It did not take long for the Overwatch to arrive, but they were already too late.

The city has fallen.

They found him covered in blood, trying to reassemble a man who was torn apart by shrapnel. They opened fire and quickly crippled his legs and arms. He tried dragging himself on his remaining hand towards the corpse, to push its leg against the now blackened wound where it was severed. And when they read back his code, to try and explain this behavior and gain an advantage over the rioting Omnics, a strange noise seemed to constantly interrupt the flow of data. The Omnic, one expert said, was crying.

Ultimo

Full Name: Alex Frontier

Alias: Ultimo

Age: 24

Birthday: Aug 18th

Appearance:

Hider

Role: Evasion Tank

Hobbies: Playing budget video games, working for Overwatch.

Likes: Fast Music, Being in his Exosuit, Video Games, Fighting, Being Fresh, His Friends, His Sister

Dislikes: Not being in his Exosuits, criminals, Omnics, Those who are not fresh

Abilities:
Higher and Higher: Ultimo supercharges his Exosuit's legs, enabling him to throw himself high into the air to avoid gunfire and get a bird's eye view of the situation. Though landing from this height takes a moment to recover.

High Voltage: Ultimo directs some of his Exosuit's energy to the area in front of him, effectively turning him into a man-sized taser.

Burning Up: Ultimo's strongest move. Over heating his entire suit to it's breaking point. The heat is so intense that anyone near the suit will feel like they are on fire, burning all those around him in a 25 meter radius.

Tools and Weapons:
Type-52 Combat Exosuit Ultimo Ver. : What separates Ultimo from the average human, a suit that puts him in the same league as combat oriented Omnics, greatly enhancing his agility and durability. His custom version has interior speakers and is painted gold on top, black on it's legs. Often worn with leather jacket and scarf.
Dual X2-B3 Machine Pistols : A bit slower firing then a certain someone's Pulse Pistols, but much more heavy hitting and much more accurate. Ultimo prefers using these pistols over rifles since they are light and easy to move when he's jumping around.

Biography:
Ultimo grew up as Alex Frontier, a young boy with no real aspirations. His parents doted on him and his sister, spoiling them and making their lives easy as can be. In short, Ultimo's childhood was good, all too good. His easy lifestyle was cut short, however, when a Omnic criminal accidentally killed both his parents during a robbery gone wrong. After that, Ultimo had to care for his sister, taking on various jobs to earn money for food. Years went by and Ultimo eventually wound up as a (paid) test subject for a companies new line of combat Exosuit. The job was easy, he just had to live in the suit for a few days to make sure the suit wouldn't overload and kill it's operator. Luckily the experiment was a success and the company hired him on as a full time tester, suddenly making Ultimo a very rich boy. During one test, the facility was attacked by a mercenary group seeking to steal the Exosuits for themselves. Using one of the newer suits, Ultimo fended them off until security could arrive. During the fight, Ultimo discovered his love for fighting. After that day, Ultimo bought the Exosuit he used with his own money and went off to join Overwatch. Ever since then he has been using the same Exosuit, seemingly never leaving it even to this day.

Personality:
Ultimo is loud, overly friendly and is way too over confident with himself. It doesn't help that he acts like he is from the 90s for some reason that no one can quite figure out. Despite all that he is easy to get along with and is always ready to help anyone in need. But as much as he likes helping people there is one other thing that he enjoys more, fighting. Nothing get's his blood pumping or makes him feel as alive as getting into a good scrap. As an Overwatch member he can do both which suits him just fine. For an unknown reason he never leaves his Exosuit except in privacy, resulting in no one knowing what he actually looks like. If asked why he stays inside he always gives a different answer, but the most common one being it makes him "look badass".

Family:
Susan Frontier - Mother - Deceased
Geoffrey Frontier - Father - Deceased
Alice Frontier - Sister - Alive

Additional Notes:
Ultimo always has music playing inside his suit when fighting, pumping him up mentally. This has caused him to ignore team mates more then once, causing a few problems.

Watcher

Full Name: Taru Hilja Korhonen

Aliases: Watcher

Age: 32

Birthday: October 8th

Appearance: Taru is usually always seen in her usual getup: the bulky, asymmetrical overcoat, the large, armored boots, and her helmet. Sometimes she'll take off the coat-that is if she's not in battle gunning down enemies - which reveals a black bodysuit that covers her whole body. No one has ever seen her face (besides close family and medics), and they probably never will, she relies on her helmet way too much to just take it off for casual settings.

Appearance

Height: 5'2"

Weight: 90 lbs.

Sexual Orientation: Asexual

Role: Defensive sniper/hunter.

Hobbies: Whittling, birdwatching, baking, and cooking.

Likes: Saunas, animals, Christmas, and mythology.

Dislikes: People who hunt game as sport, vehicles (it's a little difficult to get her into one), and Russians.

Abilities:
-Aerial Jump: The soles of her boots are jet-like, Taru is able to charge it for a short moment to determine the height of her jump. This is mainly used for getting into towering positions for her to snipe from.
-Detection: Due to her helmet, it uses sensors in the back to detect anything that moves behind her.
-Heightened Senses: Because of her disability, Taru is better at processing peripheral vision and motion.
-Electro Net: Taru shoots a net that traps an enemy for 2 seconds, shocking them for the duration of it.

Tools and Weapons:
-Sniper Rifle
-Hunting knife

Family:
-Mother: Aamu Jokela-Korhonen ✝
-Father: Kauko Korhonen
-Sister: Ansa Korhonen
-Brother: Vieno Korhonen ✝

Relations with other Team Members: N/A

Personality: Taru is a considerably quiet girl, but she isn't shy. She likes to communicate her thoughts in different ways without having to speak. Some may not find her friendly at first, it seems as if she's distant and rather harsh at the beginning. It may look like she's ignoring you and not inputting her opinion into conversations and stuff, but usually most of the time it's because she has her hearing aids turned all the way down. When you really get on her good side, she's nice enough to bring little candies and snacks around for her friends.

Biography: Born in the province Lapland of Finland, Taru was brought up in a pagan family. They appreciated the old mythology, and stuck to it like glue. Her family boasted about the hunt, the harvest, imaginary wars from way back when. It was the only history that Taru grew up with, and those values influenced the way she lived.

Even though her kin lived like farmers and barbarians, they were still far from that. They continued to live as normal as it was in modern society. When Taru was a little girl, her parents would always take her and her siblings to Rovaniemi, best known as where the Santa Claus Village is located. It was always her favorite amusement park, and practically the only place Taru would want to go. Her love of the jolly holiday originated there, and would always have a special place in her heart.

One day, at the age of 14, while her and her family were visiting Rovaniemi for their bi-monthly trip, there was an explosion on the highway her parents were driving on. The explosion rendered Taru deaf, whilst killing off her brother and mother. It was rumored to be either a terrorist attack, but at the time she never cared at all. Taru just knew that she wouldn't get her revenge the way most people would have liked. She continued to live on with her life, trying not to let the tragic accident get to her, even as she adjusted to her disability. Because of losing her hearing at such an early age, she gave up on speaking a voice she could no longer hear, embarrassed and ashamed that Taru wasn't able to even understand what she was saying.

The Omnic Crisis began when Taru was only 22 years old, and the war only reminded her of that fateful day on the highway. She enlisted to defend what little family she had left, honoring the values of the hunt and fights she was taught to as a child. Shortly after Overwatch was created, she joined the peaceful organization hoping to do good for everyone around the world.

Additional Notes: Taru is hard of hearing, and in her helmet are hearing aides. Sometimes when shes heard enough of someone speaking, she likes to turn them off and ignore them.
