Talon

There are seven main members of Talon. These seven are notable not only for being members of Talon's inner circle, but also for being rather close compatriots.

(Akande Ogundimu: Alias: Doomfist Powers/Skills: Akande is a master strategist, planner, and hand-to-hand combatant. Akande wields the titular Doomfist gauntlet which enhances his already incredible physical strength to superhuman levels, allowing him to topple buildings. Appearance: Akande is a tall and muscular Nigerian man. Akande is bald, has dark golden eyes, a strong jawline, and an overall domineering appearance. Personality: Akande is an intelligent and cunning leader. His is focused, determined, and staunchly follows his Social Darwinist philosophies. Despite his reputation, Akande can also be fun-loving and an enjoyable person. Akande is not very sensitive, respecting those who challenge him rather than mocking them. Backstory: Akande is actually the third person to hold the Doomfist name, and likely the most powerful. He runs a successful prosthetics enterprise, but secretly works as the de-facto leader of Talon. He was one of Overwatch's top priorities before they disbanded, and with Overwatch out of the picture, he's been free to operate how he chooses.)

(Moira O'Deorain: Alias: N/A Powers/Skills: Moira is a brilliant geneticist and bioengineer. Moira purposefully afflicted her left arm with a slow-acting artificial decay. While this arm became physically weak and emaciated, it also gave Moira the information she needed to continue her experiment. She wears two armpieces that allow her to heal and harm people. With the right armpiece, she can spew a healing biotic gas. With the left, she can leech the life force out of any nearby beings. Appearance: Moira is a slender Irish woman with pale skin, short ginger hair, a sharp chin, and dextrous hands. She has heterochromia; one of her eyes are red while the other blue. Her left hand is withered, wrinkly, and bears a strange purple gradient rather than a healthy skin color. Personality: Moira is a stoic and calculating woman. Thanks to her extreme intelligence, she has a superiority complex, and tends to condescend people around her. Moira is curious, sassy, surprisingly foxy, and very logical. She has a dry, often twisted sense of humor, and values her work above most else. Backstory: Moira is a renowned geneticist, equal parts brilliant and controversial. She ended up getting employed by Overwatch as the combat medic for Blackwatch. She was involved in the Venice Incident, but feels little remorse for what happened that day. After the battle between Jack Morrison and Gabriel Reyes, Moira rescued Reyes from death, partially out of genuine care for his life, and partially because she wanted someone to experiment on. Eventually, her and Reyes both got employed as agents of Talon, and Moira quickly became one of Akande Ogundimu's most trusted advisors.)

(Gabriel Reyes: Alias: Reaper Powers/Skills: Gabriel is a genetically enhanced soldier who was noted for his ruthlessness. After Moira O'Deorain saved him from his near death against Jack Morrison, she experimented on him. The experiments saved Gabriel from dying, but also afflicted him with a unique condition that caused his cells to break apart and reform constantly. While painful, this condition gives Gabriel the ability to teleport and morph into a mass of black fog, while still being able to revert to his human form. Appearance: Gabriel is a well-built Hispanic man with a blocky figure, a rectangular face, short black hair, a matching black goatee, and dark brown eyes. Personality: Gabriel is often quiet and brooding, thanks to the constant pain his condition causes him. He rarely feels any positive emotions, and is often dramatic about small things. Gabriel has mentioned that although he feels a kinship with his cohorts at Talon, he doesn't feel the same companionship he did as a member of Overwatch. Gabriel often gets annoyed by Moira, but recognizes her usefulness. Backstory: Gabriel Reyes participated in a super soldier program alongside his stubborn military rival, Jack Morrison. Both Reyes and Morrison became members of Overwatch, but while Morrison became a beloved strike leader, Reyes became a simple soldier for a black ops subdivision. Reyes began to greatly resent Morrison, and this hatred came to a head when the two fought at an Overwatch outpost, resulting both of their alleged deaths. Contrary to popular belief, both Reyes and Morrison had survived. Gabriel was saved by his Blackwatch medic, Moira, who was forced to experiment on him to keep his cells alive. This worked, but also cursed Gabriel with constant pain. Soon after, both Gabriel and Moira became agents of Talon.)

(Amélie LaCroix: Alias: Widowmaker Powers/Skills: Amélie is a master sniper, and after getting brainwashed by Talon, she doesn't jitter or shake when lining up a shot. It is believed that she never misses. Amélie is also ruthless, perceptive, and a very clever girl. Appearance: Amélie is a curvy French woman with wide hips, round breasts, long indigo hair, and dark golden eyes. After having her heart rate artificially lowered by Talon, her skin flushed to a pale blue. Personality: As a brainwashed soldier, Amélie is stoic and patient, rarely showing emotion or curiosity. The only times she ever really shows significant emotion is right after killing someone, when she truly feels thrilled and alive. Before being brainwashed though, she was a kind and romantic but logical woman. Even after being brainwashed, her original personality can shine through sometimes. Backstory: Widowmaker was once just Amélie LaCroix, talented ballerina and wife of Overwatch agent Gerard LaCroix. One day, Amélie was kidnapped and brainwashed by Talon, who turned her into a sleeper agent. After murdering her husband in cold blood, she fled to Talon for further enhancements. This is when Moira O'Deorain stepped in, decreasing Amélie's heart rate to improve her stoicism. Now, Amélie is a perfect killer for Talon to use as they wish. Every year though, Amélie will stop by Gerard LaCroix's grave to place a flower, showing that the true her is still there somewhere.)

(Siebren de Kuiper: Alias: Sigma Powers/Skills: Not only is Siebren a genius mathematician and astrophysicist, but he is also a great team player and optimistic in the face of danger. After an experiment went wrong, Siebren gained the ability to manipulate gravity to his whims, although he didn't know how to control it at first. With some training from Talon, Siebren became a living weapon, a fact he wasn't even aware of. Appearance: Siebren is a tall and well-built Dutch man with fair skin, receding black hair, a sharp chin, and wide shoulders. He has blue eyes, and a kind smile. Personality: Siebren suffers from psychosis, a result of the botched experiment that gave him his powers. Ignoring that, Siebren is a kind, polite, understanding, intuitive, and genuine man who doesn't realize that he's doing morally wrong things with Talon. Siebren also often claims to be "observing the universe" or something else along those lines when not paying attention to things. Whether this is due to his psychosis or some actual form of clairvoyance is unknown. Backstory: Siebren was once an accomplished astrophysicist. One day, during an experiment, he got caught near a miniaturized black hole for mere moments. This exposure was enough to cause Siebren to go mad, and he was admitted to a psychiatric ward. Talon soon found out about the doctor and broke him out of the ward so that he could work for them. Talon supplied Siebren with everything he needed to continue his research, a fact he was very grateful for.)

(Olivia Colomar: Alias: Sombra Powers/Skills: Sombra is an extremely elusive figure and master hacker. She's so mysterious, her own colleagues don't even know her real name, simply referring to her as Sombra. She's also a master of infiltration and espionage. Using an implant on her spine, she can turn invisible at will. Appearance: Sombra is a lean Mexican woman with brown skin, dark blue eyes, a round youthful faces and a beauty mark on her cheek. Her black hair is parted to the sides with the other side shaved. Said hair has pinkish streaks in the front. Personality: Sombra is snarky, knowledgeable, sassy, playful, surprisingly civic-minded, and very rebellious, often disobeying her colleagues in Talon in order to access information she wants. Sombra has a soft spot for Siebren de Kuiper, who she genuinely cares about. Sombra often refers to Siebren as "viejito", which is basically an affectionate term meaning "little old man" in Spanish. Sombra also can't stand Mauga because of his meatheadedness and recklessness, which can and has costed her valuable information. Backstory: Sombra's past is rather mysterious, but we know she became a hacker when she was very young. She grew up in a poor neighborhood in Mexico, and hacked to keep her family afloat. She eventually grew to use her skills for more selfish purposes and in just a few decades, she became an infamous hacker. Talon employed her for obvious reasons, her mastery of data management being notable, although she's not technically an official member of Talon.)

(Maugaloa Malosi: Alias: Mauga Powers/Skills: Mauga is an absolute beefcake, his immense strength and size making him a physical juggernaut. Although meatheaded, he is a surprisingly great planner, and a good marksman. He has a second heart in his chest which allows him to increase his adrenaline considerably, making him even harder to kill. Appearance: Mauga is a very tall and muscular Samoan man with tan skin, long wavy black hair with a white streak in it, light brown eyes, and a square face. Personality: Mauga is vain, confident, charismatic, loud, bombastic, witty, and deceptively cunning. He lives for little more than danger and excitement. Backstory: Mauga was a member of a Samoan eco-rebel group known as the Deepsea Raiders, and his time with them taught Mauga to live every day like it's his last. After a particular battle, he had to get a second cybernetic heart to supplement his organic one, making him even stronger. One day, he challenged Doomfist to a one-on-one battle, no holds barred. The fight ended in a draw, but Doomfist was impressed enough to offer Mauga a spot at Talon, to which the latter accepted eagerly. During his time, Mauga became good friends with combat medic Baptiste who later defected from Talon out of guilt. Mauga still tries to convince Baptiste to return to this day.)

Talon is an internationally operating terrorist organization living in the year of 2088. Their headquarters is stationed in Rome, and although the individual members each operate under their own agendas, they work together with the common goal of improving humanity by sowing violence and chaos.

In this world, there is a race of sentient robots called Omnics. Omnics are very controversial, as many people believe they should be nothing more than servants for humans. Some Omnics try to combat this discrimination through kindness, while others use violence.

The Omnic Crisis was a grim war where Omnic and human relations reached a breaking point, and all-out violence ensued. The war was stopped by Overwatch, who promoted love and solidarity among the two races.

Overwatch was a government-funded agency who spearheaded a golden age of scientific advancement and peace after the Omnic Crisis. After a few major controversies, Overwatch was forced to disband, leaving the populous unprotected.

Blackwatch was a covert black-ops subdivision of Overwatch, and was meant to carry out more morally ambiguous missions for Overwatch. Eventually, there was the Venice Incident, where Blackwatch members stormed the Italian town of Rialto and accidentally caused many casualties. This incident was one of the many controversies that caused Overwatch to disband.

Gabriel Reyes was one of the members of Blackwatch, and he happened to be rivals with Overwatch strike team leader Jack Morrison. During the controversial fall of Overwatch, Jack and Gabriel had a fight at an Overwatch outpost. The scuffle led to a large explosion that greatly injured both parties. Both were subsequently presumed dead. While Gabriel was saved by Blackwatch cohort Moira O'Deorain, Morrison was saved by Overwatch combat medic Angela Ziegler. Nowadays, Jack Morrison spends his days as a vigilante, trying his best to bring down Talon.

Sometimes after Overwatch disbanded, a malevolent Omnic organization called Null Sector began wreaking havoc across Earth. Led by an Omnic called Ramattra, Null Sector quickly became a worldwide threat that stirred a second Omnic Crisis. Doomfist has made some agreements with Ramattra, and thanks to that, Null Sector actively ignores Talon's activity.

Recently, Overwatch has made an unofficial comeback, combining original members with new recruits to combat Null Sector.

Moira and Widowmaker are entirely different people. Moira is pale and intelligent with a decaying right arm, while Widowmaker is stoic and brainwashed with extreme sniping skills.
