Also, nobody's thought to do anything with Demoman as Nora's mentor/father figure? Nothing at all?
(I am working on more Arc Clan but come on guys!)
I see it this way: Tavish Finnegan DeGroot, aka Demoman's real name, finally retired after the Gravel Wars ended. The Mann Co. warfare ended as per the comics, with the heirs to RED and BLU both deciding this war was stupid and to move on. And so did the Mercs. Degroot moved to the Valley of Peace in Mistral, where he sought inner peace after years of being constantly enraged.
While Ren was taken in as a prodigy in the Jade Palace from the local orphanage, Nora was found to have no talent for Kung Fu at all. But, she fixated on Demoman because she liked things blowing up. Demoman for his part tried to discourage her, but she persisted. She got struck by lightning when she was swinging around one of his old warhammers-He was terrified she was dead, but she was actually superpowered! The blast had activated her Semblance.
And he rather liked her goofy nature. So he trained her in melee combat and how to use/create explosives without blowing herself up. Not that he would admit he liked the lass.
Tavish Finnegan DeGroot: "Awww, ye wee little baby! Get outta here wit' yer boyfriend and blow up some Grimm! Like I care-!"
Nora hugs him tightly
Nora: "I love you, Master!"
Tavish Finnegan DeGroot: "..." Sniffles, hugs her back "Aye... Damnit lass... Ya gotta make me feel these things...?"
Nora: "I mean... I never knew my dad. Only my mom and..."
Degroot: "... Aye..."
Nora: "But Master... If I had a dad, I wish he was like you."
DeGroot: sniffles more "... Ah, get goin' already, ya bint! Before I really lose it!"
Nora: beams "Okay!"
She runs off. DeGroot sighs and watches her go with Ren.
DeGroot: "... He'd better take good care of her..."
