Lore[]

In World of Warcraft

This section uses content from Wowpedia.

Prince Liam Greymane was a member of the royal family of Gilneas, and the son and heir of King Genn Greymane. He was killed by Sylvanas Windrunner during the battle for Gilneas City.

In Hearthstone

Prince Liam’s devotion to his father and people was unceasing before he fell in defense of Gilneas. That was long ago—long before the curse. Recently, sightings of the Prince’s ghost have been reported. Rumors among the peasantry seem to imply that Liam’s spirit appears to people who are in great danger, and helps them do extraordinary, unbelievable things.

Perhaps the Prince feels that he failed his people once, and a desire to do better keeps him fettered to this mortal plane. Perhaps the curse denies him his eternal rest. Whatever the case, Prince Liam is not done serving Gilneas.^[1]

Liam returning after death as a ghost is something that never occurred in World of Warcraft. As such, this ghostly version of Prince Liam is unique to Hearthstone.

Trivia[]

Prince Liam's flavor text is a reference to a monologue by the protagonist Bryan Mills from the 2008 film Taken, which includes the lines: "[...] I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you."
