House Mormont of Bear Island [PW]

[Rutger Müller]

History of House Mormont House Mormont of Bear Island is an old, proud, and honorable house of the north, one of the principal families sworn to House Stark. Their seat is at Bear Island, located in the Bay of Ice far to the north-west of Winterfell. Their blazon is a black bear over a green wood and their motto is "Here We Stand". House Mormont is one of the few houses to have an ancestral weapon of Valyrian steel: a bastard sword called Longclaw. However, due to Bear Island's lack of valuable resources, the Mormonts are a rather poor house. Their hall is made of huge logs, surrounded by an earthen palisade. On the gate is a carving of a woman in a bearskin with a child in one arm suckling at her breast and a battleaxe in the other. Like the other women of Bear Island, the women of House Mormont learn how to defend themselves from ironmen and wildlings. Legend has it that King in the North Rodrik Stark won Bear Island in a wrestling match (presumably from the ironborn king who controlled it at the time) and gave it to the Mormonts. Presumably, when Lord Eddard Stark called his banners, to fight in Robert's Rebellion, Lord Jeor Mormont led the Bear Island men to war. Jeor eventually abdicated his lordship to join the Night's Watch and was succeeded by his son, Jorah. In 288 AC, Jeor was chosen as Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. Jorah went on to earn fame in Greyjoy's Rebellion and the subsequent tourney at Lannisport in 289 AC. However, he was driven from the north by Lord Eddard in 293 AC, after selling poachers to a Tyroshi slaver in order to pay for the tastes of his wife, Lynesse Hightower. Jorah fled to the Free Cities and was succeeded by his aunt, Jeor's sister, Maege. Lady Mormont's heir is Dacey, a tall, lanky warrior-woman.
