Biography
Ramattra was a male Omnic who had been created in the frame of a Ravager during the Omnic Crisis. He was originally built as a Ravager and had been built for war. Despite that, he only ever wished to create a better future for his people. Following the war, he came to shed his munitions and chose the name Ramattra for himself in order to honor the first of their kind with it being kept as a reminder of his mistakes. By this point, the Ravagers were hunted to near extinction leaving Ramattra as one of the few remaining models. He was noted to had been adrift, confused and enraged with him only hearing rumours of a sentient Omnic named Aurora. Intrigued and seeking direction, he travelled to Nepal to join the Shambali that were a religious order of Omnics seeking enlightenment. It was the hope of the group to bring about coexistence with humans, and putting his former life behind him. Ramattra survived the harsh journey, and was welcomed by Tekhartha Mondatta. Choosing to become a monk, he studied under Mondatta for years, learning about the Iris, and the importance of coexisting with humans. Years later, Ramattra began venturing outside the temple seeking enlightenment to promote the monk's message of peace. Seven years before the King's Row Uprising, it was on one of his pilgrimages that he met a young omnic named Zenyatta whom he guided to the monastery after a perilous journey, in hopes the omnic would find purpose there as he did. There the two studied under Mondatta and became as close as brothers, and spent years discussing the problems facing omnics, including the injustices being committed by humans. The two sat up at night counting stars, wondering how many omnics were doing the same. While in the village beneath the monastery, some of the humans in the village knocked Ramattra to his knees, nearly killing him. At some point, Ramattra committed an action/lack of action that nearly resulted in Zenyatta's death.

Powers and abilities
Ramattra was an Omnic that was a living artificial being that was built in the frame of a Ravager during the Omnic Crisis. Originally, he was designed to lead his fellow Omincs into war.
On his person, he carried a staff that was a Void Accelerator which fired a stream of projectiles in a fixed pattern.
He was able to transform into his Nemesis Form that changed his attacks and gaining bonus armor. In this state, a simple punch forward created a wave of energy with every swing. Alternatively, he could cross his arms around his body in order to significantly reduces damage taken from the front but reduced his movement speed. His Nemesis form was a product of his own design and a product of his genius mind with it being the manifestation of his rage. He tended to use it sparingly however, as he prefered tactical precision to brute force.
For protection, he was capable of creating a Void Barrier at the targeted location.
An offensive ability was Ravenous Vortex whereby he fired a nano ball that exploded when it hit the ground, spreading a damaging field. Affected enemies were also slowed and pulled downward as a result of its effects.
One of his greatest abilities was Annihilation whereby he entered into his Nemesis Form and created an energy swarm that lashed out at nearby enemies, persisting longer when damaging enemies.
Ramattra was the leader of a militant omnic liberation group called Null Sector that utilized violent methods to achieve their goal of furthering omnic rights. Its forces were almost entirely comprised of robotic drones manufactured in an omnium under the direction of Ramattra who was one of its original founders and currently its sole leader.
