Nori Doorman

Nori Doorman is a supporting character in Murder Drones.
She is the wife of Khan Doorman, the mother of Uzi Doorman, and is the second known host of the AbsoluteSolver. As a result of being intentionally infected by the human scientists of Copper 9 who wished to study the eldritch program, Nori's code became infected and thus caused her mutations to pass down to Uzi when she conceived her with Khan.
Prior to the beginning of the series, she was supposedly euthanized by her husband after sustaining a fatal Nanite Acid injury from an unknown Disassembly Drone. However, it was revealed in "Mass Destruction" that she survived by having her core detached from her body and continued to work in the depths of Copper 9, where she sought the Crucifix Patch and intended to bring it back to the surface with her to find Khan and use it to expel the possession of the "ungodly eldritch genetics" that she passed to Uzi with her inherited code.
Unfortunately, after taking over Uzi completely, the patch was destroyed by Cyn as she tried to deal with N to prevent further intervention but failed due to Nori revealing to Cyn that she was still alive and, despite a very close call, succeeded in expelling Cyn from her daughter by slapping her in anger upon realizing she and the thing that almost killed her were "kinda hanging out", causing Uzi to become angry as she claimed to Nori (not realizing she was her mother) that she didn't own her and proceeded to drop kick her into the chasm leading to the core of Copper 9. 
==Physical Appearance==
===Worker Drone===
Nori strongly resembles her daughter Uzi, meaning that Uzi inherited many of her mother's traits. She has neon purple eyes, though Alice contradicts this, stating that Nori had yellow eyes, referring to her eyes when possessed by the AbsoluteSolver. Her hair is violet, a slightly lighter shade than Uzi's, with a long bang parted to her left and tied up in a loose ponytail. She also wears a black construction helmet, a oversized black off-shoulder shirt, and a black choker on her neck with the number 002 (her ID number). Her outfit is identical to Yeva's, who is the mother of Doll. Uzi would later inherit Nori's ID number. Nori is also barefooted.
===Hologram===
The AbsoluteSolver's hologram also shows Nori holding a baby Uzi, most likely indicating that Uzi was only an infant when her mother died. In the hologram, Nori and the infant Uzi sport the Solver's three-pronged glyph in their visors, revealing that Uzi has been infected her entire life because she inherited her mother's code.
===Heart===
In Mass Destruction, Nori controls her disembodied heart. Nori's heart looks similar to the hearts of other Solver-infected drones, as shown in Dead End, as well as the heart of Eldritch J shown in Heartbeat — a small blob of dark red, sticky flesh draped over a black metal structure, with a single eye in the middle and eight other camera-like cylindrical eyes protruding in the intermediate directions, and three thin black tentacle appendages protruding from the bottom and ending in a fleshy, soft, crustacean-like pointed claw, arranged in a trigonal planar shape similar to the AbsoluteSolver's Translate symbol. She wears a mourning cap with a bow as an accessory.
==Personality==
From what Khan had mentioned, it seemed she was very popular among her friends, unlike her daughter who receives inhumane and abusive treatment from those around her (formerly including her own father). 
Furthermore, it implies she is relatively easy-going with those around her as photos of her during her time in Cabin Fever Labs show that she didn't seem too concerned with possessing the AbsoluteSolver despite the potential risks of harboring it. This disregard for the AbsoluteSolver's potential risks resulted in her being fully possessed by it. Her husband described her as 'kooky and insane' due to her drawings of her prophecies, which were considered nothing more than crazy ramblings at the time about the Disassembly Drones and singularities. This could imply that Uzi's erratic and unusual behavior is attributed to some of her mother's. 
Nori is very caring and motherly when it comes to Uzi, as she becomes hesitant when N suggests they tell Uzi that she is alive, only for Nori to refuse as she holds herself responsible for every horror in her life. She also gets enraged when she learns that Uzi and N are romantically linked. Likewise, despite working with N, Nori has a more hostile approach towards him due to his role as a Disassembly Drone and is not hesitant to use force on him.
==Biography==
While still shrouded in mystery, Nori was a worker at Camp 98.7 when it was still active, involved in some as-of-yet unidentified research project, presumably about experimenting with Solver-infected Drones. She bore the ID Tag #002. Her Solver infection reached a critical point where she killed most of the scientists working in Cabin Fever Labs, but Yeva managed to install the Crucifix Patch in her just in time. However, it is implied that having the patch thrown directly at her face/being possessed by the Solver whilst having the patch administered caused her mind to be scrambled. After this ordeal, Nori and Yeva escaped Cabin Fever Labs, which Alice took as them abandoning everyone else. After the core collapse that turned Copper 9 into an apocalyptic wasteland, Nori and Khan left the Camp to join the Worker Drone colony.
Nori began a peaceful life with Khan and their daughter Uzi before she slowly became delusional due to her mind scrambling, seeing visions of Disassembly Drones, which she referred to as “sky demons” and nightmares of dangerous "singularities". She also tried to warn other drones about the coming dangers. She also told Khan to build doors to shelter themselves from the Disassembly Drones. Her prophecies would be proven correct shortly after: Disassembly Drones were deployed to Copper 9 to begin their slaughter. Nori was stung by one of their acid tails, leading to Khan supposedly euthanizing her with a wrench to put her out of her misery.
It was revealed in "Mass Destruction" that Nori was still alive but in the form of her heart (also worth noting that it seemed her mind returned to normal after her body's death). She let her husband and daughter believe she was dead so she could investigate Cabin Fever Labs. One day, she found a Disassembly Drone named N being chased by the AbsoluteSolver, questioning why Cyn was after her own drone. After finding out he knew Uzi, she explained everything that happened in the labs. When they were leaving, Nori was hesitant to tell Uzi she was alive due to holding herself responsible for everything bad that's happened in her life.
Nori assisted N in the fight against a Solver-possessed Uzi, who immediately got confused when they saw Nori as they thought she was dead. The Solver was about to eat Nori before N told her that N and Uzi were romantically linked. This enraged Nori and she angrily stated "Uzi Doorman, those things killed your frickin' MOTHER!" and slapped her. This caused Uzi to snap out of the Solver's control and angrily fling Nori into the pit, not knowing that the heart was her mother and leaving her whereabouts and fate unknown.

==Trivia== 
*Her name was first revealed by Liam Vickers at the Early Screening of Murder Drones "Heartbeat" in Berkeley, California.Berkeley Live Event
**Liam Vickers likes Nori's hairstyle.LA Live Event
*A family photograph of the Doorman family is seen during the Pilot; Nori's face has been burned by what seems to be Nanite Acid.
*A closet labelled "NORI'S KOOKY INSANE STUFF" is seen in The Promening and Cabin Fever, where Khan stores her and Uzi's crazed ramblings.
**The closet contains drawings of Disassembly Drones, black holes, and variations of the AbsoluteSolver symbol.
**The closet also has a box labelled "HAPPY FAMILY MEMORIES... BEFORE NORI WENT KOOKY & INSANE!!!", implying that Nori was briefly free from the Solver's influence before it re-awakened within her.
***It was actually revealed that Nori was exorcised of the Solver's influence long before the show's events, but her mind was subsequently scrambled (which most likely caused her visions).
***While it is not known for sure which Disassembly Drone killed Nori, it can be inferred that it was N, as she stated that he "looked familiar".
*For some reason, when Nori first encounters N, she asks if he can get the Crucifix Patch to Khan on the surface, instead of Uzi who needs it. This is likely because she believes the Solver will take over Uzi to destroy the patch if she hands it over to her directly, thus requiring Khan to use it on her.
*The English subtitles of Episode 7 only ever refer to her in her heart form as "Heart", even after she was revealed to be Nori.
