House of Lothar

The House of Lothar is one of, if not the, oldest human noble houses in human history. Ancestrally, they are the closest bloodline to the mythical Emperor-King, Thoradin, and ruled as Emperors of Arathor for a thousand years before departing from Strom. Having trekked south with settlers during the inevitable collapse of the empire, the House of Lothar was still seen as one of the strongest houses even as they downgraded from emperor to lord under the House of Wrynn. For years following, the House of Lothar was known for its gargantuan men and women who had served without fear to the king, even down to the very last member of the house, Lord Anduin Lothar, the Lion of Azeroth. The house met its end when Anduin Lothar was killed at the Battle for Blackrock Mountain by Warchief Ogrim Doomhammer. The aged warrior has left no known heirs, and their unknown land holdings were likely redistributed when Azeroth was re-established under the name of the Kingdom of Stormwind.
