Thoras Trollbane

King Thoras Trollbane was the ruler of the human Kingdom of Stromgarde. He was a natural born warrior. His people's lands were in the heart of troll-populated areas, and so being ready for battle was simply a way of life. Stromgarde was quick to join the Alliance of Lordaeron following the start of the Second War, for Trollbane felt that glorious battle was to be had with the orcs. But Stromgarde had little chance to show its offensive capabilities, as it was defending the Northlands from invasion through the dwarven realm of Khaz Modan, which the Horde had already expanded into.
Stromgarde came under heavy assault and losses, but continued to battle through with a resilience the Horde did not expect. But the Horde did manage to destroy a good deal of Trollbane's kingdom, and to continued its march towards the elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas.
After the defeat of the orcs in the Second War, much of the Horde was wiped out, and most surviving orcs were placed in concentration camps. Trollbane, however, fervently disagreed this policy, believing that the orcs were simply too dangerous to be kept alive. When Lordaeron refused to mass execute the orcs, Trollbane withdrew his support from the Alliance.
Thoras Trollbane met his end when he was assassinated under mysterious circumstances following the Third War. Wowpedia -
