This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.

He may have been the same person as Captain Thornby, a Kul Tiras officer involved in Admiral Proudmoore's invasion of Durotar in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. However, as Strahnbrad stradles the border between historic Alterac and Lordaeron, Thornby would unlikely have been a citizen of Kul Tiras by birth. If the two were the same person, he has a past similar to the venerable paladin Dagren the Orcslayer, who joined Admiral Proudmoore's expedition after failing to defeat the Scourge in Lordaeron.
