Nora-Mel the Redeemer

Ser Nora Mel Mercia is honestly pretty well adjusted, considering her life, she was an experiment, witnessed untold cruelty, and endured hardships that would break a lesser soul. Nora has a will of drowsteel, and the brash nature to match. She had the gall to take her mother and demand that Drake Morvala offer he mother sanctuary within the northern holds, Drake agreed, seeing as Nora was truthful and was not part of the horrors of Arkon, and thus Nora Mel ensured Lillith Arkon would be given a new name and safely stowed away in the future in Morvana to live a simple life.
Next, Drake would ensure Nora fought in the Second Demon War, she did, and was among those of the drow charging headfirst into the demons. For her determination and bravery, Nora was rewarded with land, knighthood, and a husband in Sir Juba Mercia, who tragically lost his life in 1062AE in a boating incident when he struck some unseen rocks while sailing off the eastern coasts. He didn't drown or anything, the shock of how expensive the repairs would be caused him to have a heart attack.
Nora Mel finds ruling populaces to be dull, and left it to her son to inherit his father's role, beating up three different challengers and enforcing her decision with her fists as is the Old Way. She then went out and got work with Xeke Lorka as one of his two bodyguards. She has worked that job ever since then and sends back some earnings to home but generally spends a lot of money and time betting on Sportsball and smokes. She's a swell person with an easy going attitude, and she'll rip you in half in the same breath if you attempt to touch her boss.
Nora is a classically trained knight, she's really not great at anything beside fighting, fucking, drinking, smoking, and fighting. Strong combatant, both in technique and the literal sense, likes to use a sturdy and elongated ironwood baton with strange runic carvings painted with some kind of odd textured material. When needed she does also pack a break action pistol, she is aware of how to still use a sword and shield, but for obvious reasons she no longer wields them.
Nora Mel is a very normal person, who has adapted well to the changes of the times, she likes to wear the style of the day for a hard worker. 
Nora has two children: 69 and 36, both married, the son is Lord Devin Mercia of Stellis Hold, the southern coastal region of (insert House Kothore lands), where House Mercia has been regulating lumber, fishing, and farming operations for generations and took charge after his father's heart attack with his wife.
The daughter is Reyni 'Maizen (nee Mercia) and married a cousin of the Maizen household, she now lives in Maiden's Shadow.
