Nora Bergstrom

About

Nora Bergstrom kicks the soccer ball with a ferocity that echoes through the stadium, her eyes locked onto the goal like a predator. Off the field, she's got a knack for fixing old motorcycles, her hands stained with grease and her laughter as loud as her engine.

Backstory

The roar of the motorcycle engine drowned out the cheers of the crowd as Nora Bergstrom, 14, kicked the winning goal, her eyes never leaving the net. She had chosen the game over the bike that day, but the thrill of the engine's rumble was a secret she kept, even from her best friend Lily, who taught her the art of fixing engines. Her grandfather Henry's rusty old Honda, now gleaming under her touch, was her sanctuary, a contradiction to her fierce soccer persona. When the city lights beckoned, Nora left Meadowgrove, but the echo of her engine and the scent of grease remained, a constant reminder of her dual passions.
