Lena Oxton, better known as Tracer, is a playable character from Overwatch, a multiplayer game produced by Blizzard Entertainment.
Backstory[]
Lena Oxton was the youngest person ever to be inducted into the experimental flight program of Overwatch, a global peacekeeping force. Lena was handpicked to pilot the Slipstream, a prototype teleporting aircraft. However, something went wrong, and the Slipstream vanished into thin air with Lena inside. After that, Lena was presumed dead, but she appeared a couple months later. The ordeal had changed Lena, desynchronizing her molecules from the flow of time. She would randomly vanish into thin air, and she would remain vanished for longer and longer periods of time. Luckily, the Overwatch agent Winston created a device to keep Lena anchored in the present and giving her the power to control her own flow of time. With her new time-manipulating powers, Lena took on the codename of Tracer, becoming one of Overwatch's most skilled agents.
Powers & Abilities[]
- Blink: By speeding up her flow of time, Tracer can boost herself a short distance at speeds resembling teleportation. Tracer can blink several times in quick succession to cross long distances quickly, turn and flip around while blinking, or slow or accelerate her descent while falling.
- Recall: Tracer can rewind herself up to three seconds in the past, resetting her health, position, and ammo back to what it was three seconds before. Recalling only effects Tracer. This can be used to heal or avoid deadly attacks.
Equipment[]
- Pulse Pistols: A pair of pistols that fire quick bullets of plasma as ammunition, which do low damage separately, but they have a very high firing rate. Each pistol holds forty rounds, and they have a quick reload time.
- Chronal Accelerator: A shoulder harness invented by Winston that keeps Tracer anchored in the present after her accident. This is what lets her use her time powers.
- Pulse Bomb: A bomb that sticks to whatever it lands on before exploding. The explosion of the bomb deals massive damage to whatever it hits.
