Brigitte is the youngest daughter[1] of Torbjörn and Ingrid Lindholm,[2] and is a traveling companion of Reinhardt Wilhelm. She was Revealed as Hero 27 on February 28th, 2018.
Overview
Brigitte specializes in armor. She can throw Repair Packs to heal teammates, or automatically heal nearby allies when she damages foes with her Flail. Her Flail is capable of a wide swing to strike multiple targets, or a Whip Shot that stuns an enemy at range. When entering the fray, Barrier Shield provides personal defense while she attacks enemies with Shield Bash. Brigitte’s ultimate ability, Rally, gives her a substantial short-term boost of speed and provides long-lasting armor to all her nearby allies.

Story
Pre-birth
“ | He has been bothering me insufferably at my bedside. Half in jest, I suggested that if it would shut him up, I would allow him to name our daughter, as he has been badgering me about it these past months. He, of course, took me at my word. Truth be told, I had been considering making him her godfather, and I hope you'll forgive me for making this decision without your consultation. We can only hope she doesn't take after him too much. | „ |
~ Torbjörn in a letter to Ingrid |
Brigitte was conceived many months before the events of Operation White Dome, where her father lost his arm in battle. He would have lost his life as well, if not for Reinhardt's actions. As Torbjörn recovered in hospital, Reinhardt wouldn't leave his side. Torbjörn became so frustrated that he told Reinhardt that if he left him alone, he could name his daughter. Torbjörn also decided to make him the godfather. Hence, Brigitte received her name, and her godfather.[1]
Travels with Reinhardt
“ | Reinhardt. I don't approve of you dragging that poor girl around on your adventures. Brigitte has made her choice. I would have her at my side. |
„ |
~ Mercy and Reinhardt |
Brigitte and Reinhardt traveled together in the period following Overwatch's disbandment. She helped him maintain his armor, like her father before her. On occasion, they would get into scraps.[3]
Dragon Slayer
“ | We need new parts. Your armor can't handle another battle in this condition. When has that ever stopped us before? |
„ |
~ Brigitte and Reinhardt |
Low on fuel and money, Reinhardt and Brigitte stopped off in a town to obtain some of the former. They discovered it to be akin to a ghost town, and it was revealed to be due to the Dragons, a group of armed scavengers. They encountered the Dragons soon afterwards, and Brigitte was held back as the thugs assaulted her friend, leaving only after Reinhardt had been soundly beaten. Brigitte rushed over to help him as the Dragons headed off to loot another town. Returning to their transport, Reinhardt remained set on helping the people, despite Brigitte's warnings that his armor couldn't handle another battle. Nonetheless, they got to work on its repair, and Brigitte located the Dragons in a factory outside town. Reinhardt engaged the criminals in combat, returning with the declaration that they would not bother the town any longer. Using scrap retrieved from the factory, Brigitte gave Hanna's stuffed toy lion an 'upgrade.'
Their job done, the pair returned to their original goal of picking up fuel.[3]
Reflections
At Christmas that same year, Brigitte and Reinhardt spent Christmas at her father's home, with the latter reading stories to the younger Lindholm children.[4]
Honor and Glory
“ | I thought we talked about this. You don't have to do this anymore. Winston's message wasn't meant for you. This isn't your fight. Papa told me, after so many years of service. You gave Overwatch everything, and then they pushed you out. Why would you go back to them? What are they still fighting for? | „ |
~ Brigitte |
Brigitte and Reinhardt were in Eichenwalde when they discussed the issue of Reinhardt returning to Overwatch, per a recall order from Winston. Brigitte was against the idea, telling Reinhardt that Winston's message wasn't meant for him. She also expressed a dim view on Overwatch, given how Reinhardt had been forced to retire from the organization in his fifties. Despite her pleading, Reinhardt resolved to heed the recall order.[5]
