Warcraft Universe , was the supreme commander of the Alliance Navy, and ruler of the nation of
Kul Tiras .
Grand Admiral Proudmoore is the father of
Jaina Proudmoore . During the days of the second war, he,
Uther Lightbringer , and
Anduin Lothar were three of the finest human leaders.
The Grand Admiral appears in the bonus campaign in the Warcraft III expansion
Frozen Throne , "The Founding of
Durotar ". Despite the tentative alliance between the Humans and the Orcs at the end of
Warcraft III , Proudmoore could not let go of his hatred for the Horde. His hatred led him to attack their new nation of Durotar upon his arrival in Kalimdor. Because of this danger,
Thrall had
Rexxar , one of the Mok'Nathal, speak with the Trolls living on the
Echo Isles , the Tauren in Mulgore, and the Stonemaul Ogres in order to form another alliance to destroy the threat of Kul Tiras. Jaina had tried to convince him of the reformed ways of the orcs, but to no avail and eventually would conspire with the orcs to kill him.
Thrall had told Jaina that they had no choice but to kill him because the safety of Durotar was all that mattered. Jaina said she understood, and told Thrall to "do what you must". Later on, the Horde stormed his citadel of Tiragarde Keep, south of Orgrimmar, and the orcs fought their way through the citadel, through waves and waves of humans, until they finally reached the Grand Admiral. Proudmoore was killed by a team that consisted of Rexxar,
Rokhan , a Troll from the
Darkspear Tribe , Tauren leader
Cairne Bloodhoof and
Chen Stormstout , a
Pandaren .
