Biography
Jaina Proudmoore is a Human Sorceress in the fantasy Warcraft Universe.
She is the daughter of Admiral Proudmoore and a personal friend of Arthas, the former Prince of Lordaeron.
When Arthas showed the first signs of him sinking into madness, Jaina tried to talk him back into sanity but to no avail. She did not follow Arthas into Northrend, but instead turned to the coast and travelled to the West, to the continent of Kalimdor, as the 'prophet' Medivh had instructed.
There she made pacts with Thrall, the visionary leader of the Horde, and Tyrande Whisperwind, the High Priestess of the Night Elves. Together the fragile alliance successfully defended the World Tree and defeated the Burning Legion's Second Invasion led by Archimonde.
After the war, Jaina led the remaining humans and retreated to the Theramore Isles off the coast of southern Kalimdor. There she founded a Human Alliance realm on the main island.
Peace did not last long, as the Horde also settled in Kalimdor. They were under an uneasy truce. However, the appearance of Admiral Proudmoore's Marines has alerted the Orcs and Thrall decided to intervene with their activity. With the help of Rexxar the Beastmaster the Orcs pushed the humans all the way back to the Theramore Isles and there they faced the battle-hardened yet stubborn Admiral, who is bent on killing Orcs with no questions asked.
The Horde prevailed and before Jaina could intervene, Admiral Proudmoore was slain in the throne room on the island's Castle. Knowing the threat has been removed, the Orcs left the Jaina and the island in peace.
However, the new conflict in the World of Warcraft is said to have at least partially originated from this incident. More should be revealed as the MMORPG progresses.
Jaina, as a human being and trained sorceress, prefers actions over words, leading her to develop a great admiration for Thrall's success in founding Durotar and a deep resentment of the unending, fruitless debate among the members of the High Council of Lordaeron when it was in still existence.
