Tyranastrasz was the first consort of Alexstrasza.
He was captured and enslaved along with Alexstrasza by the Orcs using the Demon Soul during the Second War. Since the Orcs lost all the consorts but him, he was forced to mate with Alexstrasza in order to produce offspring for the Orcs to attack and harass Alliance forces. Tyranastrasz was an old dragon before he was captured, described as hundreds of years older than Alexstrasza, and the constant strain of his captivity affected him. He was killed by Deathwing just before Alexstrasza was freed by Korialstrasz, Rhonin, Vereesa, and Falstad.
