"Welcome, agents of Overwatch. I am Winston, head of the recruitment and scientific branches of the Overwatch organisation. If you are receiving this video message, it is as congratulations for passing your preliminary trials. As such, you have been accepted into the Heroes Initiative.
As many of you know, our numbers dwindled after the Talon Conflict, and we now require additional heroes in our efforts to aid the global community and capture the last remnants of the Talon organisation. That is why you, great heroes who have shown valour, ability and teamwork, are being brought out to Watchpoint Gibraltar, ready to become part of the team.
I look forward to meeting all of you personally, Winston signing off."

Welcome, Agents of Overwatch. After several long months of training and trials as part of the Heroes Initiative, you have finally been accepted into the Overwatch organisation. As the next generation of heroes set to defend the world against the threats posed to it. Even after Talons fall, the work of Overwatch was not done; they were even busier if anything, returning to their once high point and being revered as heroes. They were tasked with protecting countries and people all across the world. But, their numbers had dwindled after the Talon Conflict, and thus the Heroes Initiative was created.
That is where you come in. Having participated in months of training and trials conducted by members of the Overwatch organisation, you now find yourselves with invitations to the group, for the final part of your trial. Once arriving, you will finish training and then become full members of Overwatch, ready to be sent on missions and uncover the darkness returning in the world.
The role play will begin with your characters arriving at Watchpoint Gibraltr. There will be a time where they can get to know each other before meeting the NPC cast of old Overwatch characters and being throw into their trials.

1.All standard Iwaku rules apply.
2. There will be violence and fighting in this RP.
3. Romance is a-okay with me, just move it to PMs or fade to black if things get too spicy.
4. Drama IC is fine, Drama OOC is not. Please be friendly with each other.
5. At times, I will push the plot along with possible time skips or story advancements. Plenty of notice and discussion will occur before these happen.
6. For FCs, use artistic depictions, such as anime or fantasy art. Makes it easier to picture the character in contrast to the games, I imagine.
6. Discord link is Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers

On June 30th, 2081, the organisations of Talon and Overwatch engaged in a bloody conflict on the grounds of Watchpoint Gibraltar. After a failed strike at a Talon base, Overwatch had gathered at the Watchpoint to plan their next move, giving Talon the perfect time to strike. Led by the Talon elite of Doomfist, Reaper, Widowmaker and Sombra, an army of operatives descended upon the Watchpoint. Automated defences managed to hold them at bay for a while, but eventually a bloody conflict happened outside of Winston's research laboratory.
The battle ended after many fell, the forces of Talon near destroyed. Reaper had slain his former friend Soldier: 76, but he himself had been cut down in turn by Genji Shimada. Ana and Fareeha Amari both fell to the precise aim of Widowmaker, who was captured later by Overwatch and is undergoing correctional therapy to return her humanity. Doomfist was captured by Overwatch, his weapon now in storage with the group, and the man himself now imprisoned in an undisclosed location. The remaining operatives, Sombra and Moira, managed to flee the combat. The two of them are still evading capture, presumably together, and are regarded as the single biggest threat to Overwatch.
After the conflict, many members of Overwatch were left scarred and changed. Genji Shimada dissapeared from the organisation, later found within Hanamura reconciling with his brother. This left Overwatch at a great shortage of members.
It is now 2084, and Overwatch are finally regaining enough strength to act in defence of the world, once again.
