Frederick Hurst

Brother Frederick Hurst is a Kul Tiran tidesage originating from the town of Brennadam in Stormsong Valley. Formerly one of the few tidesages that remained behind in Theramore Isle after the departure of the Kul Tiran Navy, after the destruction of the city-state he became a vagabond, wandering Azeroth and sharing the blessings of the tides with those he came across.

During the Third War, Brother Hurst accompanied the Kul Tiras Elite Corps as part of the Human Expedition formed by Lady Jaina Proudmoore, and he fought at the Battle for Mount Hyjal.

Brother Hurst's loyalties were put to the test with the usurpation of Theramore by Lord Admiral Daelin Proudmoore. Pitted against fellow countrymen, he was given the choice of siding with Lady Jaina and Theramore and maintaining the peace that had been bought with the end of the Third War, or siding with Lord Admiral Daelin and Kul Tiras and destroying the Horde that were still establishing themselves on the continent. Ultimately, he made the decision to not help Kul Tiras in its conquest of Durotar, and was beaten half to death by several Kul Tirans from the Lord Admiral's forces who called him a traitor. When the Lord Admiral was slain, Brother Hurst remained in Theramore rather than returning home. Though Theramore was a city formed of people from multiple nationalities, Brother Hurst continued the Kul Tiran tradition of blessing vessels for the ships of the Theramore Navy, though his individual enchantments were a mere shadow of the potential Tide-blessed ships had when multiple Tidesages worked as one.
