The origins of the Junkers lie with the destruction of [Australia]’s omnium, which turned the Outback into an irradiated wasteland that was uninhabitable to most humans. Those who survived formed the Junkers, who scavenged the husk of the omnium and formed a lawless, cutthroat society in its shadow. The Junkers continue to pilfer the omnium. When they aren’t doing that, the Junkers blow off steam in the Scrapyard—a massive gladiatorial arena whose combatants fight for glory, riches…and to survive.
Meant to finish this one for a long while! Young Mako(not all too long post Omnium explosion) and little Jamie, drawn inspired by an AU I am writing with my bestie. Basically a what-if-scenario, in which young Roadhog found little Junkrat right after the whole Omnium disaster and ended up taking care of him from then on.
Fish seems to be a pretty popular dish in Junkertown, you can see it being prepared in a couple of places on the map, as well as on the takeaway menu.
If you look outside the city the two main food sources would be the forested area and the river, there don’t seem to be any agricultural efforts at all.
So if all the fish in Junkertown are coming from that river…
Junkertown dumps waste right into its main food source.
Eating polluted fish won’t kill you right away, but chemicals absorbed by fish can be absorbed by the humans that eat them, possibly causing cancer, liver disease, nervous system damage, impaired mental development, and if eaten by anyone pregnant can cause fetal damage.
Blizzard probably didn’t think too much about the food supply in Junkertown, as it’s inspired by the nonsensical world of Mad Max, but…
Impaired mental development, nervous system damage causing tics, and possibly a missing limb due to poor fetal development?

** Birgitta’s line means ¨a beautiful last verse¨. In swedish you can say that someone is ¨singing their last verse¨ when they are getting old or are dying
