Appearance
Fairly short of a Tauren, but toned and powerful, Trehmar Banepaw is a gentle giant, even by the looks of him. While his soft brown fur may be graying in some areas, it is very well-kept and has many signs of youth remaining. His face is usually calm, though ferocity lies deep under the surface, and is displayed seen on his brow and nozzle when he is angry. His eyes are a soft brown, lighter than his cinnamon-brown fur, and have compassion and understanding for most living things
Background
While the Kolkar centaur maintained their dominance over Mulgore, and the Tauren roamed the endless Barrens, Trehmar was born into the Banepaw Tribe. The Banepaw remembered Mulgore with an intense longing, and strove to unite the Tauren so their homelands could be retaken. Though Trehmar was very young, he understood the importance of unity even at that age. No one tribe could fight off the centaur by themselves, only together, as one.
Trehmar's mother was one of the tribe's valued shamans. She was a great spiritual leader among her people, and skilled in the magical arts. The little calf hoped to someday be a great shaman as his mother, and a skilled hunter like his father.
The Banepaw Tribe had very strong relations with the Night Elf druids of Moonglade. Trehmar had many Night Elf friends as a youngling, and viewed their race with awe and respect. Many years later, when they would join the greedy Alliance, Trehmar would retain his respect and awe, but learn to fear the powerful people. To this day he has difficulty slaying Night Elves, never knowing if he is killing one that he may have known as a young calf.
By the time Trehmar was ten years of age the Banepaw had begun to make some progress in their goal. Some tribes began to camp closer to one another, Tauren from all different lifestyles would join around campfires together at night, and defense against the Kolkar was strengthened. But the centaur saw this threat to their power. When the hunters and warriors were away from the camp, out gathering food for a great meal, a group of Kolkar attacked the Banepaw Tribe. The battle was fierce, the druids and shamans of the Banepaw were powerful, as were their Night Elf allies who were visiting. But, the Kolkar were too many, they overwhelmed the Banepaw, burning their tents and leaving their bodies on pikes. During the attack Trehmar had gone hunting with his father. He returned to see his friends and family dead, even several of their Night Elf allies were slain by the savage and ruthless centaur. The calf didn't sleep well for many years after that day.
The remaining Banepaw were scattered across the Barrens, some becoming exiled loners, others being assimilated into other tribes. Several tried to move forward the effort to bring together the tribes, but they made no progress. The Tauren had learned their lesson: leave the Kolkar alone and you will live. Trehmar and his father joined the Bloodhoof Tribe, where they lived out the rest of their time on the Barrens.
Trehmar never learned the ways of the shaman, too grieved by his mother's death. Instead, he fought as a warrior. When Thrall and the new Horde came to Kalimdor, Trehmar was one of the first to raise his weapon in service of the Orcs. The Kolkar were finally beat back with the help of the young and wise shaman, Thrall. From the day he stepped foot in Mulgore, Trehmar pledged eternal loyalty to the Horde and Thrall, vowing to serve them as long as they followed the path of good.
In Mulgore, Trehmar lived with the Bloodhoof Tribe only a year before moving to Thunder Bluff, where he felt more comfortable. Though he had been with the Bloodhoof 55 years by this time, he still felt like something of an outcast. So, still considering himself a member of the Bloodhoof Tribe, he built his home among the other Tauren of Thunder Bluff.
For three years Trehmar trained in the ways of the hunter, finally convinced by his father that this was the path he belonged on. Seeing the steady peace between the Horde and the Alliance begin to wane, he trained ever harder, knowing his people would soon again be called to war.
Now Trehmar Banepaw has been fighting in the war against the Alliance for a year, often called to fight in the major staging points of the war. Though he disdains killing, he goes whenever called upon to fight. While back home, though, he does his best to organize and recruit for his new guild, the Banepaw Fellowship. He has seen the racism and disunity among the Horde, and feels that the legacy of the forgotten Banepaw Tribe should go on. Though he has never been in a leadership role before, he has confidence in the Earthmother and himself.
Trehmar only hopes that someday the Alliance will be defeated, and peace will resume.
UPDATE: Trehmar Banepaw died defending Thunder Bluff during the attack of the Scourge. He was killed and knocked off the side of the bluff. Trehmar's body was mummified and laid to rest at Red Rocks, where a small funeral was held for him by a few members of the Banepaw Fellowship.
Goals and motivations
Ever since he fought alongside Thrall against the Kolkar, Trehmar was immensely loyal to the Horde. He saw the Alliance as unforgiving fiends who must be stopped if peace on Azeroth is to resume. Though he disliked fighting and hated to kill, he battled whenever called upon, determined to see the Alliance fall. He believed unity is the key to success, and was determined to put an end to the racism and segregation among the people of the Horde, just as his tribe had once strove to do with the Tauren people.
Trehmar's mother excelled at playing the flute, something he would have liked to learn someday. Months before his death he began learning, he was spending a good deal of time practicing between patrols in Mulgore.
Idiosyncrasies
Ever since his first Feast of Winter's Veil, Trehmar was an avid drinker of all variations of brews. His personal favorite was ale, which tended to make him silly and confused. Other alcohol only maked him quiet, and very truthful.
Public knowledge and rumors
