Archangel

## **Gallery Page · Quotes Page**

Victor "Archangel" Knox is a genetically enhanced human who works under Talon.

## Bio

Victor Knox is a trained killer supercharged with a super soldier procedure and a nearly unquenchable bloodlust.

Taken away from his parents at birth, Victor was raised by soldiers in Talon. Originally a by-product of Talon-developed chemicals, Akande Ogundimu, known as Doomfist and a councilman of Talon, saw greater potential in him. Working on more refined chemicals, he became a superhuman at a young age.

But they continued pushing their luck. Victor developed insane reflexes and a heightened sense of intelligence. He worked as an assassin for what he believed to be morally correct.

Equipped with Talon's finest hardware and gear, and dubbed the Archangel by the general public, Victor Knox is a threat to humanity.

He is also very condescending, looking down on agents of Overwatch and in some cases, even his own colleages like Widowmaker and Sombra.
