Sergeant Norris is one of the most influential members of the Texan Brotherhood. He is a direct descendant of High Elder Rhombus. After joining the ranks as an initiate he showed his bravery at the Battle of Carbon defending his squadron with his trusted fire ax and shotgun, killing tens of mutants during a mutant resurgence. During the aforementioned battle, he met the love of his life, Alison Crowe, a Brotherhood Paladin. The two began dating as he climbed the ranks to the Star Paladin and eventually married her with permission from her father, Elder Joel. After a few years of marriage, the two had Sierra Norris and the two looked after the young girl. When Sierra was twelve Alison tragically died in an ambush and he was devastated, he decided to step down from his position as Star Paladin and decided to take an old US military position, Sergeant. As a Sergeant, he trained the troops and inspired them on the battlefield with his war cries while at the same time watching over his young daughter whom he taught everything he knew, including a fighting style he invented using a shotgun for both shooting and melee attacks.
