Junkrat (real name Jamison Fawkes) is a playable character in Overwatch. He is a destructive criminal known for his instability and demolition knowledge.
His Evil Ranking[]
His Villainous Deeds[]
- Joined a gang known as the Junkers and participated in many criminal deeds.
- When the Junkers kicked him and Roadhog out, they planned revenge, which failed due to Junkrat's stupidity.
- He blows up as many things as he can simply out of a thrill.
- Went on a worldwide crime spree with Roadhog.
- When hired by a businessman to save hostages from omnics, he proceeded to destroy the entire building with the supposed hostages inside (though there weren’t actually hostages, he wasn’t aware).
- After realizing that the businessman lied to him, he hanged him and blew up his building.
- Although he works with Overwatch, the in-game dialogue shows that he enjoys taunting and harassing them for his enjoyment.
Why He Doesn’t Stand Out?[]
- Although blowing up buildings is original, he massively fails the standards to other villains like Reaper and Doomfist.
- He is far too comedic including his dimwitted demeanor and one-liners. Everything from his plans for revenge and his taunting of other Overwatch members is played for laughs.
- Aside from taunting, he is generally affable towards others.
- He does truly view Roadhog as a friend, even though Roadhog is very rude towards him.
- He has a honor code, as he won’t betray any of his employers unless they betray him.
- He has standards, as he was against Talon's actions and pointed it out.
- He has moral agency issues due to radiation affecting his mind.
