"To all agents of Overwatch..! No... No, that's not right...
..thirty years ago, the Omnics declared war. The nations of the world had no answer until they called upon a small group of heroes.
Soldiers. Scientists. Adventurers. Oddities. We became the greatest champions of peace and progress mankind has ever seen..! In a time of global crisis, an international task force of heroes banded together to restore peace to a war-torn world. Overwatch was created to rescue humanity from the Omnic Crisis- it ended it, and helped to maintain peace in the decades that followed, inspiring an era of exploration, innovation, and discovery.
You were chosen because you had powers and abilities that made you-.. You joined, because you-..
You already know this... Overwatch's influence waned, and it was eventually disbanded. Look, the people decided they were better off without us. They even called us criminals..! They tore our family apart. But look around..! Overwatch is gone... but the world still needs heroes. Conflict is rising across the globe again, and the call has gone out to all heroes, old and new.
Someone has to do something..! WE have to do something..! We can make a difference again..! The world needs us now, more than ever..!
..are you with us..?"
~ Winston; hero of Overwatch.

"Conflict. As the world teetered on the brink of anarchy, a new hope arose. An elite international task-force charged with ending the war, and restoring liberty to all nations. Overwatch. Soldiers. Scientists. Adventurers. Oddities. Guardians who secured global peace for a generation. Under its steadfast protection, the world recovered. And today, though its watch has ended, its soaring ideals of freedom and equality will never be forgotten."
Created at the behest of the United Nations, and since disbanded, Overwatch is an international task-force which was formed during the Omnic Crisis over thirty years ago. A unit consisting of what the world considered to be scientists, soldiers, adventurers, and oddities; Overwatch was intended to carry out asymmetrical warfare against the Omnics. However, in the years to follow, Overwatch was transformed into the international peacekeeping force that it is known as today.
Now recalled back into existence, and holding an abundance of new resources and funding giving it a far-reaching global influence, the members of Overwatch, both old and new, have once more been brought together in the world’s time of need. Ready to keep the peace, and to once again inspire a new era of exploration, innovation and discovery; even going so far as to expand its territory into new research to do with fields such as space exploration, medical research, climatology, and cybernetics- their ultimate goal, global stability.

After the Omnic Crisis, Vishkar began the laborious process of creating new, self-sustaining cities to house India's displaced population. One such city, Utopaea, was created using radical hard-light technology that enabled its architechs to shape the city's streets, utilities, and living spaces in the blink of an eye.
Vishkar also secured a contract to redevelop large tracts of Rio de Janeiro. The citizens were told that the development would improve their lives. However, that promise never became a reality. Vishkar imposed controls on the residents in the name of building a more orderly society: enforcing curfews, cracking down on what the company perceived as lawless behavior, and exploiting the populace as a cheap labor force. Sonic technology was used to control the populace. However, that technology was stolen by one of the citizens who led a popular uprising, driving Vishkar out of the city.
Per the events in Rio, Vishkar was subjected to investigation, forcing the company into damage control. While this was going on, the company was involved in negotiations with LumériCo, with Sanjay Korpal engaging in confidential negotiations with CEO Guillermo Portero, relaying the details to the company's executives. The discussions involved importing LumériCo's patented energy systems. When Sombra leaked LumériCo documents and emails to the press, these negotiations were revealed to the public. Atlas News reported on the incident, claiming that the link between the two companies should be a cause for concern.
Currently, Vishkar desires to have a presence in Oasis.

For many years, the city's economy was fueled by the local timber industry, though in more recent years it has drawn tourism related to the novel series Twilight and movies of the same name, which was set within the city of Forks. With recent declines in the timber industry, Forks has relied on the nearby Clallam Bay Corrections Center and Olympic Corrections Center as sources of jobs. A popular destination for sport fishers who fish for salmon and rainbow trout in nearby rivers, it is also supported by visitors to Olympic National Park.

Designed by British architects, Sir Edwin Lutyens and Sir Herbert Baker. New Delhi is a cosmopolitan city due to the multi-ethnic and multi-cultural presence of the vast Indian bureaucracy and political system. The New Delhi town plan, like its architecture, was chosen with one single chief consideration: to be a symbol of British power and supremacy. All other decisions were subordinate to this, and it was this framework that dictated the choice and application of symbology and influences from both Hindu and Islamic architecture. The city's capital status has amplified the importance of national events and holidays; and national events such as Republic Day, Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti (Gandhi's birthday) are celebrated with great enthusiasm in New Delhi and throughout the rest of India.

PLEASE NOTE: When it comes to character appearances; please... please try to use actual people for your face-claims, and not drawn or anime pictures- as your GM, this tends to be a pet-peeve of mine, and I would really appreciate it.
