Overwatch OC: Lee

Lee Gang-Cheol

Real Name: Artemio Valdez, Age 42

Occupation: Fortification specialist / Defense Consultant

Base of Operations: Sinuiju, DPRK (alleged)

Affiliation: Korean People's Army / Independent (alleged)

Lee Gang-Cheol is the adoptive name of a North Korean defense expert specializing in the construction of mobile energy fortification.

The massive omnic that menaced the Korean Peninsula threatened both of the nations that claimed it. In order to boost their defenses, the North Korean intelligence services abducted a promising young energy defense scientist and humanitarian from Central America.

Realizing his potential to save their country, they faked his death and proceeded to cyberize him. Army scientists drowned his mind in propaganda and stuffed his body full of cybernetic mechanics and armor. Dubbing their creation Lee Gang-Cheol - the given name translating to 'steel' - the newly-remodeled Artemio designed (and took part in building) a massive energy-based barrier around the entire northern half of the peninsula that proved effective in driving off the giant omnic with minimal damage to the homeland.

“Lee” was declared a national hero, but at the time it was a commendation he loathed. Overwatch was the one light filtering through the cracks in the walls built around the country and his mind. Artemio frequently designed escape routes into his fortifications to allow refugees and dissidents to escape and alert Overwatch to their plight. But the organization’s demise caused Artemio great despair and vindicated the country’s military, who planned to grant him an all-omnic wall-building army of his own at a ceremony attended by the country’s Leader.

In a concealed act of vengeance, Artemio covertly programmed the army to turn against the audience, acting “in the nick of time” to save the Leader’s life. Easily blaming the attack on a group of corrupt generals, Artemio was invited into the Leader’s inner circle. Adopting the Gangcheol moniker for good, he now hawks his defense technology to the leader’s clientele, all the while seeking out groups for his more personal mission to avenge himself on the remnants of Overwatch.

One of my favorite things about The Real Adventures of Johnny Quest is how it tried to defy Indian stereotypes with Hadji by making him the resident tech guy, years before THAT became the new Indian stereotype.
