Try the origin video for Lifeweaver a.okay.a. Niran PruksaManee:
The character-loving inventor left his luxurious way of life behind and set out on a noble mission to make the world a greater place together with his signature expertise: biolight.
Although the character of Symmetra is all about perfection and altering actuality, it appears that evidently Lifeweaver goes to be her reverse in terms of character and powers. Whereas Symmetra offers with absolute shapes and geometry, Lifeweaver’s biolight is much more ‘pure’ in its progress, and may even heal others.
It’s undoubtedly going to be fascinating to see how the 2 would react with each other, seeing that Lifeweaver has gone towards the Vishkar Company, the exact same firm that makes use of Symmetra’s abilities as an ‘architech’. Whereas Lifeweaver appears to worth all types of life and its magnificence, Symmetra has all the time been translated as chilly and wanting a ‘good actuality.’
I suppose it’s additionally value mentioning that Lifeweaver is a pansexual character, and the Blizzard builders have been saying that it’s going to be clearly mirrored in his voice strains and interactions.
