Rauora

Rauora is a fictional character from the popular tactical shooter game Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, developed by Ubisoft. She hails from the Rārata iwi and serves as a captain in the New Zealand military, embodying a strong connection to kaupapa Māori traditions. Recently, her character has come under scrutiny due to an oversight by Ubisoft, which assigned her birth date as March 15, the same day as the tragic Christchurch mosque shootings in 2019. This decision sparked outrage among fans and commentators, who criticized the insensitivity of the choice and questioned the creative process behind it.
