Torbjorn Lindholm Midoriya

​Torbjörn Lindholm's Bio
At its height, Overwatch possessed one of the most advanced armaments on the planet, which could be traced to the workshop of an ingenious engineer named Torbjörn Lindholm.

Before the Omnic Crisis, Torbjörn had gained notoriety for designing weapons systems used by countries around the world. However, his belief that technology must serve a better vision for humanity put him at odds with his employers, who desired to control his weapons using networked computer intelligence.

Torbjörn had a deep mistrust of sentient robotic intelligence, and while many of his peers wrote this off as paranoia, his worst fears were realized when the robot populations of the world turned against their human creators during the Omnic Crisis. Because of his engineering genius, he was recruited to join the original Overwatch strike team, and his many inventions proved integral to ending the crisis. In the years that followed, Overwatch became an international peacekeeping force, and Torbjörn remained a critical resource for all of its technological needs and signature weapons systems.

But in the aftermath of Overwatch's fall, many of Torbjörn's weapons were stolen or stashed away around the world. Feeling responsible for his creations, Torbjörn is determined to stop them from falling into the wrong hands and wreaking havoc on the innocent.

​Fatherhood
Contrary to popular belief, Torbjorn is actually the father to Midoriya Izuku. As shown in this image where he is desperate to find his son.

Torbjorn had to abandon Izuku and his mother in order to hatch a nest of tiny little Torblets who later became the League of Villains.

Midoriya Izuku's special ability 'One for All: Full Cowl' was actually inherited from Torbjorn's own quirk 'Molten Core', however Izuku was unable to harness such sheer power without the use of One for All.
