Blackmoore gave him the name Thrall, which was another word for 'slave' in the human tongue. As a baby, he was found amongst the bloody bodies of his murdered parents by Aedelas Blackmoore, commander of the internment camps which held orcs after the end of the Second War. Thrall is the son of Durotan, former chieftain of the Frostwolf clan, and Draka.

He is rarely alone, and in battle often spends much of his time directing his troops. While in Orgrimmar, visitors are under Thrall’s protection and he will not tolerate any threats or violence against them. Visiting hunters often bring meat or fur in exchange for refuge from the elements, and human traders from Theramore Isle periodically bring casks of salt ale and seed for crops. Hospitality is extended to everyone, but Thrall expects all visitors to contribute in some way to Orgrimmar’s survival. To friends, Thrall is warm and generous, freely swapping stories and information. However, if someone under his leadership causes dishonorable and unnecessary bloodshed, or worse, consorts with demons, Thrall's policy is clear: a death sentence carried out with the help of the Doomhammer. Even when crimes are committed, the harshest punishment that Thrall will mete out is exile - banishment into the almost lifeless wastelands of the Barrens, where the elements judge who lives and who dies. He takes individuals at face value and treats them with respect until their actions prove that they should be dealt with otherwise. Still, they honor his leadership and will treat visitors to Durotar fairly, albeit somewhat roughly. Despite Thrall’s open acceptance of visitors into his society, the orcs have not yet relinquished all of their old hatreds and preconceptions about other races.
