King Thoras Trollbane was the king of the nation and kingdom of Stromgarde and one of the original founders of the Alliance of Lordaeron.

History

Following the destruction of Alterac after its deal with the Horde became known, Thoras Trollbane petitioned King Terenas to annex the eastern portion of Alterac's territory to Stromgarde in recognition of the latter's sacrifices and valor during the Second War.<ref>Day of the Dragon</ref>

For long months the forces of the Alliance worked to seek out the renegade Orcs that had gone into hiding after the fall of the Dark Portal. The Blackrock, Dragonmaw, and Black Tooth Grin clans were captured by the Alliance and herded into guarded reserves and prison camps. While the leaders of the Alliance argued over what was to be done with them, Orgrim Doomhammer, the Warchief of the Horde, was placed under arrest and kept as an honored prisoner under the care of King Terenas of Lordaeron. Some members of the Alliance pleaded that the Orcs should be exterminated like animals, while others opted for a sentence of life imprisonment. Having discussed the obvious benefits of a treaty with Doomhammer, King Terenas fervently hoped that the Orcs could be kept pacified long enough to eventually lose their lust for conquest. Thoras Trollbane of Stromgarde and Genn Greymane of Gilneas both disagreed vehemently with Terenas, resolving that the Orcs were too great a threat to leave alive. After months of debate and frustration and the departure of the high elves from the Alliance,<ref>The Alliance Splinters</ref> so did Gilneas and Stromgarde, both leaders withdrawing the support of their nations from the Alliance.<ref>Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal manual, The Aftermath of the Second War</ref>

Thoras Trollbane met his end when he was assassinated under mysterious circumstances following the Third War. This was merely the beginning of Stromgarde's darkest hour, as the kingdom soon came under siege by forces of the Syndicate and Boulderfist ogres. The Syndicate and Boulderfist won several victories against the now weakened kingdom, and managed to occupy much of its terrain, including most of the capital city. Thoras was was succeeded as Stromgarde's ruler by his son, Prince Galen Trollbane.

Thoras' nephew, Danath, was the tactical advisor to the Alliance Expedition to Draenor during the Second War, and is believed to have died after Draenor was destroyed and the Dark Portal sealed off.
