Kensei Muguruma was one of the original members of Overwatch. After the initial crisis, Kensei was sent to Lijiang, China to command a Watchpoint there. He ran a tight, clean ship and was mostly unaffected by the intricate politics that plagued Overwatch’s central command. 

When Overwatch suddenly disbanded and left him unemployed, Kensei eventually became the owner of what turned into a world-class restaurant in Lijang. He didn’t answer Overwatch’s recall and it’s only after Talon’s efforts to eliminate him became a danger to his own life and the lives of those around him that he reluctantly made his way to the new headquarters. In spite of others’ encouragement, he refused to resume a command position within the organization itself, though he does end up taking the lead often in field assignments.
