Liam Greymane

Prince Liam Greymane is a member of the Royal Family of Gilneas, and the son and heir of King Genn Greymane. He appears first in the Merchant Square of Gilneas City, securing the perimeter and evacuating any remaining citizens. Unfortunately, the worgen then start to attack, and Liam and his father escapes with the other Gilnean refugees to the village of Duskhaven.

However, he starts drinking to drown his regrets of preventing the loss of Gilneas City, but when the Forsaken attack Gilneas, he and his men fight back. The Shattering occurs as he starts to head towards the main Forsaken army, and therefore assists in the rescue of drowning soldiers and then evacuating Duskhaven. He travels to Stormglen with the other evacuees, but his stagecoach is attacked by ogres before it can reach the village.

After the Gilneans unite due to the efforts of his father and Darius Crowley, he sobers up and prepares to lead a counter attack against the Forsaken invaders. He leads his men in reclaiming the land in the Battle of Gilneas City, but is killed by Sylvanas Windrunner when he takes a poisoned arrow intended for Genn. He dies secure in the knowledge that the city had been retaken.

Quotes

 * "The Forsaken think we're weak, a broken people. They think we'll roll over like a scared dog... how wrong they are. We will fight them in the fields until the last trench collapses and the last cannon is silenced. We will fight them on the streets until the last shot is fired, and when there is no more ammunition, we'll crush their skulls with the stones that pave our city. We will fight them in the alleys until our knuckles are skinned and bloodied, and our rapiers lay on the ground, shattered. And if we find ourselves surrounded and disarmed, wounded and without hope; we will lift our heads in defiance and spit in their faces. But we will never surrender! FOR GILNEAS!"

Trivia

 * The speech made by Liam before the battle in Gilneas City is reminiscent of Winston Churchill's speech in the House of Commons on June 4, 1940, during the Battle of Britain. Faced with overwhelming odds, Churchill vowed that "we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender".
 * In the beta, he used a Rough boomstick as gun, but in when the real game was launched it changed to a normal, gilnean rifle.

Speculation
It is possible that Prince Liam Greymane was named after King Liam Trollbane. Seeing some xenophobic aspects of Genn Greymane, it seems unlikely, but it could be that Greymane does respect other kingdoms enough to praise former rulers. However, it seems more likely that both Liams were named after a king of Arathor with the same name.

It could also be that this is a common name among all humans because its meaning in the real world is Protection in the German variant, obviously a popular theme, and My People in the Hebrew variant, which is fitting name for a ruler.
