Blizzard's been relatively decent about their female characters' clothing (not superb, just decent), and I'm glad to see that they're keeping that up.

As many people have been speculating in the leadup to her announcement, Blizzard revealed that it is indeed Brigitte Lindholm, Törbjorn's daughter and Reinhardt's squire who has taken up arms to join the fight! 
She's a support/tank hybrid who wields a chainwhip mace and energy shield, and her armor looks totally awesome.
Her melee attack heals nearby allies, and she can also throw health packs onto allies (and overhealing gives them added armor). She has a shield bash that can be used to stun and knock back enemies, and basically, I think I'm in love already.
Why must cool stuff happen all the time to a game I can't play!?
Also: thank GOD, her armor actually looks somewhat practical.
