Brigitte

Real Name: Brigitte Lindholm
Age: 23
Occupation: Mechanical Engineer
Base of Operations: Gothenburg, Sweden

The youngest daughter of weapons designer Torbjörn Linholm, Brigitte spent much of her time around her father’s work. Reinhardt Wilhelm, a friend of her father, was also a big part of her upbringing, telling her stories of the heroes that came before. Inspired, she asked Reinhardt to join him as his student, and together, they trained to fight alongside one another. 

Brigitte’s kit is similar to that of Rheinhardt’s with the exception of her Rocket Flail replacing his hammer. Her primary attack is a whip that can affect multiple enemies at once. She can also project her flail, knocking enemies back away from her. Her passive healing provides healing whenever she does damage whipping her flail. She can throw Shield Packs, as well, healing allies or providing additional shield to full health allies. She also employs a shield, though it only provides an individual barrier. When her shield is up, she can Shield Bash, rushing directly forward and stunning opponents momentarily. Her ultimate ability is Rally, and while activated, her mobility is increased, while providing passive healing to allies around her.
