My voice touches 35 million people. I’m the slightly sceptical star of what has become one of the biggest online games on the planet. At home, my son and I tussle constantly over his absorbing but troubling gaming habit. As the voice of Zarya, the mighty avatar in 'Overwatch', I am overwhelmed by the sudden, passionate attention of newfound fans. However, an invitation to join a campaign against the toxicity young female gamers face online challenges my perceptions. I discover a space where young women express their identities empowered by their gaming characters. Through Zarya, I discover their unheard and complex struggles.
