Backstory: Mauga grew up in Samoa, son of the Deepsea Raiders eco-rebel leader. Joined his father on missions across Polynesia from a young age. Nearly died in battle as a young man, but was saved by cybernetic upgrades. This gave Mauga a hedonistic outlook - he vowed to live each day to the fullest.

Caught Doomfist's attention by challenging him to a fight that ended in a draw. Doomfist recruited Mauga to Talon with promises of more upgrades and action. In Talon, he met Baptiste, a medic who became his best friend, until a mission with civilian casualties made Baptiste want out.

Now Mauga continues to enthusiastically carry out wetwork for Talon. But a part of him misses Baptiste, his one true friend.

• Memory: Recalls getting his pe'a tattoos in a painful coming-of-age ritual as a teen. He was proud to endure it to honor his heritage.
