Biography

Early life

Blackmoore was the son of Aedelyn Blackmoore, a general in Lordaeron's army who had been convicted of selling state secrets when Aedelas was a child. A veteran of the Second War, Blackmoore had proven himself quite effective in combat against the orcs. What wasn't generally known was that while Blackmoore acquitted himself well on the battlefield, his courage in battle was often boosted by alcohol, as Blackmoore was a heavy drinker. It is possible that Blackmoore's drinking problem originated from his frustration at having to live with the stigma of being the "son of a traitor." Due to his father's treachery and the suspicion of his peers that such traits were hereditary, Blackmoore had to repeatedly prove himself and work harder than other soldiers and officers to earn the respect he so craved. This did not have a positive effect on his disposition, to put it mildly.

The Second War

Aedelas aided Arthas escaping Capitol City and they fled to Stratholme and plan to regain Lordaeron and restore it to the true state, humanity's goal of destroying the orcs.

Warcraft Adventures

In the cancelled Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans, Thrall encounters the flag of Alterac within Durnholde Keep, and says that it is "the symbol of the lieutenant's homeland", refering to Blackmoore.
