House Proudmoore is one of four noble houses that rule Kul Tiras. Masters of the sea and commanders of Azeroth's finest navy, the distinguished Proudmoore family has led Kul Tiras for decades from their seat of power in Boralus.[1] Their seat is Proudmoore Keep, located in the city of Boralus. House Proudmoore rules the archipelago of Kul Tiras, commanding both the military and the guard in the form of the Proudmoore Admiralty[2] and the Proudmoore Guard.

Notes and trivia
- Kul Tiras was stated in Cycle of Hatred to be the former home of the Proudmoore family.[8] Battle for Azeroth reveals that House Proudmoore still continues to live there as one of the four ruling houses.
- Derek once quipped that the Proudmoores all have seawater in their veins, referring to their affinity for the ocean.[9]
- Soldiers of Boralus carry a small Proudmoore anchor that serves as a badge for identification.[10]
- Mayor Cyril White of Fallhaven is a longtime friend of the Proudmoores.[11]
- Fernn has always shown discontent with House Proudmoore and his position in Southport.[12]
- The Arthas: Rise of the Lich King novel stated that while the Proudmoores are nobility, they are not royalty.[13] However, many other sources call Kul Tiras a kingdom, Daelin has been called a monarch,[14] and Derek has the title of crown prince.[15]
- In the early alpha,
[10-60] A Nation Divided said that House Proudmoore runs the military of Kul Tiras, and that the Boralus city guard and Kul Tiras marines all answer to the Lord Admiral, who also rules the entire nation. - Server:Proudmoore Europe & Server:Proudmoore US are named after the House.
