Captain Luc Valonforth[1], also known as The Captain, was the right hand man of Prince Arthas Menethil.
He assisted Arthas all the way through his campaign, from the investigation at Brill all the way to the icy roof of the world; Northrend itself. There, Valonforth managed Arthas' base camps and held the line against the forces of Mal'ganis. Eventually, an emissary arrived from Lordaeron and ordered Valonforth to withdraw the army back home. The Captain answered to King Terenas rather than Arthas, and prepared the army for its journey back to Lordaeron. However, Arthas sunk the ships that could return them home, and blamed it on his mercenaries. Valonforth had the mercenaries killed, and looked on as Arthas declared that they would finish what they started here or fall.
When Arthas went in search of the ancient Runeblade Frostmourne alongside Muradin Bronzebeard, The Captain was left in charge of their encampment, repelling the siege by Mal'ganis. Finally, Arthas returned with Frostmourne. When asked where Muradin was, Arthas told his soldiers he was dead.
The final battle was now to come, and Valonforth fought alongside Prince Arthas against the last bastion of Mal'ganis, and claimed victory.
The fate of Captain Valonforth after the battle is unknown. He may have died, but it is speculated that he was one of the survivors that helped found Valgarde.
