You know, it occurs to me that Judge isn’t just some blank persona that Deputy has taken on; it a combination of traits from all the Seed siblings.
I remember reading that when you activate Judge as a Gun For Hire, they appear from out of nowhere in a cloud of fog. I think maybe that’s a nod to Faith and how she used to appear in a cloud of Bliss fog.
Their whole appearance is a nod to Jacob’s Hunters, not to mention the choice of name- ‘Judge’- is also another nod to him. Joseph has probably told Judge/ Dep to test those that wish to find him and judge their worthiness. Trials, anyone?
Then there is their whole role as a Judge, judging sinners and probably (?) helping them reach the atonement, likely not through any gentle or passive means. Sounds a little like John, don’t you think?
To round it off, to sum up this short character analysis of a person who is made up of the traits of many, think of the only time we see the Seed Siblings together. Its right at the beginning of Far Cry 5 and what are they doing? Standing silently at Joseph’s back in shadow. What have we been told about Judge? That they are silent and always at Joseph’s back; that they are his shadow. Might be reading too much into things, but it was fun to think about.
Edit: Wow, this blew up. Also, forgot to tag @nick-rye-the-pilot-guy and @theeonlyroman

Noir: Has a whole fucked up origin story in which his uncle ben is cannibalised, he watches someone get eaten alive by spiders, he gets cursed by a spider god with intense power, he has his mentor killed, and a whole SHIT TON of other horrible traumatic experiences that include but are not limited to having his best friend lobotomised and brainwashed thanks to a racist scientist

Color study from a photo
A small introduction: due to the fact that there was a story with Echo and she was announced as a hero, I wanted to share the full my story, which during these months I came up with based on facts known up to this point. This is a headcanon, but I always try very hard to get into the original. I only slightly changed my original story - in the old version, Dexter really had a wife engineer who died due to the implicit fault of Overwatch, and it seems now she has a name and personality.
One year later.
One late evening at the bar, the team recalled this sad story. Among them was Mccree. He thought about what had happened and every time he did not leave a heavy feeling of guilt. Overwatch allowed the death of such a valuable person. Whose safety can they provide if they are not able to save themselves? But with his mind, he understood that this should not bother him and he could no longer fix anything.
When everyone dispersed beside him, a saddened man crouched, he wanted to get drunk quickly. Mccee decided to ask what happened to him. The man briefly shared his grief with him, telling about the death of his wife, today was exactly a year from that moment. Jesse sympathizes with him and lets speak out until the person who introduced himself as Dexter shows him a photo of the deceased. Not immediately, but he recognizes Liao in the photo, and listens to his interlocutor more attentively. Dexter tells the sweetest memories that come to his mind. Her nice smile, an amazing selection of films for the evening, rare days that they could spend together because of work… McCree is getting darker.
“I once worked on artificial intelligence,” Dexter began suddenly, “I thought, is it possible to transfer human consciousness to the body of a robot? Maybe… Of course she has already…” “Sorry, but I think it doesn’t work like that,” the man remarked sadly. “You don’t understand how dear she was to me… I should at least try,” he objected. Silence fell. Nobody wanted to argue and drink already. “Maybe I know someone who can help you, but don’t say anything about me,” Jesse said and they shook hands.
Dexter turns to Overwatch’s leadership, already as a specialist in robotics. He, too, was an employee of Omnic Corporation in the past. He learns about his wife’s projects and is surprised that he knew so little about them. Dexter offers to continue her business, but the management refuses to finance, then he offers this as a secret experiment, which does not carry the overwatch logo in the end. Reluctantly, he is allowed to continue work. He does not report either a resurrection or his acquaintance with Mccree and works hard.
He proves to management the importance of having an individual echo of character and refusing to limit its independence. He uses Liao’s deferred development to refine the Echo enclosure and its software.
Soon, a renewed Echo comes into the world.
But that was only the beginning.
