Out of all the amazing lore we have gotten these past days, getting more information about “the eye” is definitely one of my highlights! ESPECIALLY since I hadn’t seen it coming now!

Sombra has been one of my favorite characters since her first cinematic! And this eye that we all speculated might be a God-program seemed as far away as Sombra’s secret identity! Then Zarya got her comic, learned Sombras real name, and I was thrilled that we were getting more of the story!

And now we have Emre! Emre who is controlled by the very same entity who Sombra is hiding from/trying to find! I am screaming!

”I’ll find out who really runs the world” – she says! This thing is running the world according to Sombra! How long? Emre’s ultimate voice line is in Finnish, suggesting that whatever it is speak Finnish.

With the theory of it being a God-program, people are now speculating if it could be Chernobog! (Placed in Helsinki, Finland)

I know some don’t think this is the case. Chernobog predicted it was going to be shut down and printed hundreds of pages of instructions to help humanity maintain security after it was gone. It’s last words before being disconnected being “"i understand. i'm sorry."”

HOWEVER

Can we trust it? Whatever Sombra has been looking for has been there for quite some time. What if it was never truly disconnected? It printed out hundreds of pages of instructions. Did humanity follow those? Did it somehow trick the humans into securing it somewhere hidden in code?

It knew it was being shut down, it had time to plan!

Most importantly! Chernobog was in charge of global security. The last thing we know about what happened to Emre is that he was offered a position consulting on Global Security!

And now he is doing missions for Talon close to where the Global Security was monitored… where he had also been while he was part of Overwatch! He has knowledge that this thing can use, and it’s goal seem very connected with Global Security!

Everything points to Chernobog! But if it is Chernobog, then what does it want? We know Anubis tried to kill humanity in an effort to conserve the Earth. But that is not Chernobog’s goal. It’s Global Security. Does it need to get rid of humans for that? Or do we already know what it wants? Full control of everything? Is it truly running the world from the shadows? Or is that just phase 1 for a bigger plan?

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I am so hyped! Yay! And Sombra knows they are connected too! They have a voice line interaction already:

Sombra: Give it up, güey. You think I don't know who you're really working for?

Emre: What makes you think I know?

Sombra: *Scoffs* Please. Don't play dumb with me.

"ʸᵉᵃʰ ᶜᵃⁿ ᴵ ᵍᵉᵗ ᵘʰʰʰʰʰ Star and Stripe's quirk please?" I know this isn't really how the meme works but(t)

For Pietro, the main issue with his original concept was that he was my first Overwatch Oc but also my least thought out. I basically just got a general idea--the Pierrot--and the rest was all just whatever I came up with in the moment with no actual thought to its utility. So making things more coherent was the biggest concern.

He's more simple now, largely because I wanted him to be less armored and outwardly a fighter, since canonically he wouldn't really be on the field. Similar to how Mei's Overwatch 1 Design didn't really scream DPS either.
