Omnic

Omnics are artificially intelligent robots produced by omniums, automated robotics factories that were built with self-improving software algorithms which eventually became self-aware. As such, omnics are engineered with the capacity for free will. The Shambali declared that the omnics have souls, which became a huge controversy in modern politics. They are susceptible to the effects of an EMP. Advanced AI programs known as god programs, such as Anubis, can forcibly take control of otherwise independent omnics and bend them to their will. Some omnics, if not all, possess a unique form of energy, dubbed "omnic energy," which has both destructive and restorative properties; Zenyatta's orbs were designed to channel this energy.

Omnics have a written language called "Omnicode." It can't be directly translated into English. It is an animated language, designed so that un-augmented humans would be unable to read it.
