Warcraft/Characters/The Alliance: Difference between revisions

Once he returned, however, the Scourge had already taken over Lordaeron, and so he led the remnants of the Silver Hand against the Scourge. Wielding the Ashbringer, Alexandros became legendary for the number of undead he slew, leaving only ashes behind him. Tragedy struck, however, when his oldest son, Renault Mograine, thinking he's [[The Unfavorite]] of the family, is manipulated by Balnazzar (in the guise of Dathrohan) into leading his father into a trap, before [[Self-Made Orphan|killing him]] with his own sword. Kel'thuzad eventually raised him as the mightiest Death Knight the Scourge had ever seen, though he was slain again, this time by his other son, Darion Mograine, when he came to Naxxramas in search of his father.

'''''AGAINST A THOUSAND MORE!''''' }}

* [[Parental Favoritism]]: While he loved both of his sons, to the outside, it seemed like he clearly showed favoritism to his younger son Darion compared to his older son Renault.

* {{spoiler|[[The Paladin]]}}: {{spoiler|A posible future in Velen´s short story reveal that he may change into a paladin (or may not) to fight with the Army of Light (Aa joint army of every good organization against the Burning Legion)}}.

An elven ranger, and an early volunteer to help the Alliance against the Horde in the Second War, even before the elves formally chose to join the war. During the war, the elven homeland was burned to the ground by the orcs and her younger brother killed, leading her to become obsessed with revenge and fixated on exterminating the orcs. She relished the chance to join the Alliance Expedition to Draenor and fight the orcs further, and once there, with the aid of Turalyon and Khadgar, eventually gave up on her genocidal quest.

While she doesn't appear in ''The Burning Crusade'', her son with Turalyon - the paladin Arator the Redeemer - does.

* [[Action Girl]]: Since ''Warcraft 2II'', Alleria has been a military officer.

* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Despite being aligned with the Army of the Light, she is learning how to channel Void energy from Locus Walker, a Void Ethereal;: his teachings ensure she remains in control of herself.

* [[Dead Little Sister]]: Her murdered brother, Lirath. Her sister Sylvanas technically counts, technically because she is now undead.

* [[Death Seeker]]: This is eventually pointed out to her, and she gets better.

* [[Lady of War]]: The only female unit in ''Warcraft II'', and its expansion.

* [[Put on a Bus]]: As with Turalyon, she's been AWOL since ''Beyond the Dark Portal'' {{spoiler|until her comeback in the ''World of Warcraft ''Legion'' expansion}}.

Originally the Regent of Stormwind during the first war, Lothar led the kingdom's defence against the Horde. Despite his efforts, eventually the king was assassinated and the orcs proved victorious. Lothar, assuming command of the homeless people, led them north across the Great Sea, seeking aid. He bargained with the other human kings, and under his leadership, the Alliance of Lordaeron was founded. Lothar served as supreme commander of Alliance forces throughout the Second War. Though he laid the groundwork for their triumph, Lothar did not live to see the ultimate victory of the Alliance. He perished in the final siege of Blackrock Spire, the largest orc fortress in Azeroth. [[Retcon|Accounts of his death differ]]. In ''Warcraft II'', he approached Blackrock Spire to parley with Doomhammer and try to negotiate an orc surrender, but was ambushed by superior numbers of ogres and was murdered. In the novelisation ''Tides of Darkness'' and in the backstory of ''Warcraft III', though, no attempt at negotiation is mentioned. Instead, Lothar and Doomhammer sought each other out on the battlefield and fought an honorable duel, in which Doomhammer slew Lothar. Regardless of which version you accept, Lothar's death, instead of demoralising the Alliance army, inspired them to continue the assault and raze Blackrock Spire, breaking the back of the Horde.
