A scrumpy-swilling, monster-bothering demolitions expert from the Scottish highlands, the '''Demoman''' (real name '''Tavish DeGroot''') is one of the more versatile members of the team. Though his weapons lack pinpoint long-range accuracy, the Demoman is a powerful, if unpredictable, asset and can hold his own in just about any situation. He is a master of the explosive, excelling at indirect, mid-range combat. Armed with his [[Grenade Launcher]] and [[Sticky bombs]], the Demoman uses his only good eye and knowledge of the surrounding environment for well timed detonations that send enemies skyward, often in several pieces. | A scrumpy-swilling, monster-bothering demolitions expert from the Scottish highlands, the '''Demoman''' (real name '''Tavish DeGroot''') is one of the more versatile members of the team.

A scrumpy-swilling, monster-bothering demolitions expert from the Scottish highlands, the Demoman (real name Tavish DeGroot) is one of the more versatile members of the team. Though his weapons lack pinpoint long-range accuracy, the Demoman is a powerful, if unpredictable, asset and can hold his own in just about any situation. He is a master of the explosive, excelling at indirect, mid-range combat. Armed with his Grenade Launcher and Sticky bombs, the Demoman uses his only good eye and knowledge of the surrounding environment for well timed detonations that send enemies skyward, often in several pieces.
The Demoman, as his name implies, excels at swift disassembly- bouncing his grenades round corners to wreak havoc on enemy Sentry Gun emplacements while remaining safely out of sight. His sticky bombs are a perfect tool for area denial, keeping opponents away from any carts, control points and Intelligence cases he deems off-limits.
The Demoman is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Trivia
- The Heavy and the Demoman are both voiced by Gary Schwartz.
- The Demoman was born to a clan of Scottish Demomen whose motto is "In regione caecorum rex est luscus", which roughly translates as "In the realm of the blind, the one eyed man is king." According to his mother, his father lost both his eyes before he was 30 and maintained 26 jobs until his dying day.
- The Demoman's old trading card bio is largely the same, except that his original parents are killed rather than his adoptive set.
- The Demoman is missing his shoulder emblem in the RED main menu splash screen. (Both in the original RED team picture and the Soldier/Demo Face-off picture.) He is also missing his shoulder emblems in Meet the Demoman.
- The HUD icon of the Demoman is inverted horizontally, as he is depicted as left-handed. The Demoman's patch is also on the wrong eye.
