He was preceded by [[Adhabu Ngumi]], the Savior, and followed by [[Doomfist|Akande Ogundimu]], the Successor.<ref name="DoomfistHero">2017-07-06, [https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/heroes/doomfist/ Doomfist - Heroes - Overwatch]</ref> ==Story== [[File:Succession.png|thumb|left|Ogundimu betrays Adeyemi.]] Adeyemi inherited the Doomfist gauntlet from Ngumi, but was far from a hero. Instead, he became a warlord.<ref name = "NewNovel">2020-06-18, [https://blizzardwatch.com/2020/06/18/overwatch-novel-hero-of-numbani/ The new Overwatch novel puts Efi, Orisa, and Numbani on center stage]. ''Blizzard Watch'', accessed on 2020-07-19</ref> He joined [[Talon]], carrying out raids on [[Numbani]]. At some point he recruited a disillusioned Akande Ogundimu as a mercenary, and eventually introduced him into the Talon organization, acting as his mentor. Though the Talon council considered Adeyemi a useful asset, they came to favor Ogundimu for his superior ambition, intelligence, and leadership abilities. In the aftermath of the [[Venice Incident]], Adeyemi was killed by his former pupil, and Ogundimu claimed the Doomfist gauntlet and title as his own.<ref name="DoomfistHero" /> ==Trivia== *''Akinjide'' is a [[wikipedia:Yoruba|Yoruba]] given name that means "the strong one has returned," and ''Adeyemi'' is a Yoruba surname that means "worthy of the crown." *At some point, his name on the Numbani Heritage Museum poster was changed from "Akinjide Ngumi" to "Akinjide Adeyemi." *Akinjide is depicted as wearing his gauntlet on his left hand, meaning that Ogundimu had it remodeled for his own personal use. ==References== <references/> [[Category: Talon members]]
