* CompositeCharacter: While Lyanna writes the letter to Stannis in the books as well, the show version seems to combine aspects of Wyman Manderly's granddaughter, Wylla, with her wanting to fight in the name of House Stark -- odds be damned -- and her capacity for badass speeches. She's also basically a condensation of all four of Maege's younger daughters from the book series into a single character.

** Her book counterpart has multiple older sisters, and was only acting Lady of Bear Island when she responded to Stannis since her mother and sisters were away. Here, she's the only daughter, making her a condensation of all four of Maege's younger daughters.

* QualityOverQuantity: Although the force she can offer is small, she claims that each of her warriors are worth ten mainlanders (evocative of House Mormont's sigil animal; a [[BearsAreBadNews bear]]). Considering how badass Northern soldiers have generally been portrayed when fighting larger southern forces, this is quite the BadassBoast. This isn't an idle boast, either. As explained in the novels, the Bear Island is off the northwest coast of the North, so they're ''constantly'' fighting off not only wildling raids (in small fishing ships) but heavy raids from the Ironborn coming up from the south. Thus they have very strong martial traditions -- look at how tough Jeor was and Jorah still is -- and they also had to train even their daughters to be warriors (to survive while the men are out at sea in fishing ships).

! House Mormont

->''"Here We Stand."''

A comparatively small Stark vassal house, ruling Bear Island, situated in the Bay of Ice.

[[folder:In General]]

* ActionGirl: While not a full AmazonBrigade, the Mormonts do train their female members (like Maege and her daughter Lyanna) to be just as much warriors as their men. It comes from living on a remote island where the men are out at sea most of the day on fishing boats to get basic sustenance; the women left behind on land had to be capable of defending themselves from attacks by the Ironborn longships and Wildling boats.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: We only get one brief glimpse of Bear Island, but it is nothing short of breathtaking.
* AdaptedOut: The other Mormont daughters, with the exception of Lyanna, are absent.
* AncestralWeapon: Longclaw, a Valyrian sword. Lord Jeor passes it to his protegee Jon Snow, a [[HeroicBastard bastard son]] from House Stark.
* AnimalMotifs: Their sigil is a black [[BearsAreBadNews bear]] in a green wood.
* ArtEvolution: Their heraldry switched from having the bear passant (striding) from Season 1 onwards to having the bear rampant (rearing on its hind legs) in Season 6, without explanation. It appears to be a case of AscendedFanon - the TV production team doesn't really have a dedicated Heraldry office, but did it all in one big burst when the show began. The Season 6 version is an ''exact'' copy of the Mormont sigil fanart used on ''A Wiki of Ice and Fire'', as were the Reed and Stokeworth sigils. Apparently by later seasons the costume and props departments just used fan wikis as reference, not realizing that this was book-based fanart, and unaware that earlier seasons of the TV series had ''already'' established an official design for these sigils within the TV continuity.
* BadassFamily: To a man (and woman).
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Characters we met who belong to this house are all benevolent people but are extremely ferocious if pushed too far.
* HadToBeSharp: Bear Island is the ass end of nowhere to the Seven Kingdoms, located almost north of ''The North'' on a remote off-shore island, vulnerable to raids from both the Ironborn and the Wildlings. It's the northwestern corner of the known world, away from any sea lanes. On top of this, they lead a hardscrabble existence on their resource-poor island: it is heavily forested, largely untamed (albeit beautiful) wilderness filled with ''bears'', to the point that their main food source is from fishing instead of farming or hunting.
* IdenticalStranger: The Captain of the Guard is a dead ringer for Stannis, of all people.
* SceneryPorn: The scenery in Bear Island is beautiful.
* UndyingLoyalty: To House Stark.
--> '''Lyanna Mormont:''' Bear Island knows no king but the King in the North, whose name is Stark.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Jorah Mormont is totally reluctant to go back to Bear Island or even send word about his happenings because he's dishonored and disgraced the family name so much that he's dead to them.

* AChildShallLeadThem: Since Jorah is disgraced and exiled, and since the death of her mother during Robb Stark's campaign, she became the head of her house.
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She's very blunt and full of sass at her young age.
* AscendedExtra: An unseen character mentioned in a single anecdote in the novels, in the show she is made the Lady of Bear Island and appears in person, even accompanying the Starks into the field.
* BadassAdorable: She may be young, but the girl knows how to hold her own against older men in debates. In Season 7 she states her intent to train everybody on Bear Island how to fight and she fully intends to fight as well.
* BreakoutCharacter: She quickly becomes one of the most popular characters on the show after only appearing in three episodes, and in one of those, she doesn't even have any lines, only a withering DeathGlare of utter contempt for Ramsay.
* BrutalHonesty: Lyanna is not one for softening her words or the reality of the situation. The Starks didn't come to reminiscence, they came for her soldiers, no point wasting time chatting. Jon's an illegitimate son while Sansa's been married twice, making neither a legal Stark. And if they want her to send what little men she has into yet another battle for the Starks, then they had best give her a damn good reason. She's honest about herself, too: when Sansa tries to compliment her by saying that she'll grow up to be a great beauty, Lyanna responds: "I doubt it. My mother wasn't a great beauty or any other kind of beauty."
* ChekhovsGunman: She's first mentioned by Stannis in Season 5 after she wrote him a letter that rejects her house taking up arms for him before becoming an integral part of the Stark restoration in Season 6.
* CommonalityConnection: How Davos persuades her, as both know what it is to suddenly be in charge of a position they never expected to have.
* CompositeCharacter: While Lyanna writes the letter to Stannis in the books as well, the show version seems to combine aspects of Wyman Manderly's granddaughter, Wylla, with her wanting to fight in the name of House Stark -- odds be damned -- and her capacity for badass speeches. She's also basically a condensation of all four of Maege's younger daughters from the book series into a single character.
* DeadGuyJunior: Discussed when Sansa attempts, largely in vain, to instigate some small talk by mentioning the young Lady Mormont was specifically named for her late aunt, Lyanna Stark.
* DeathGlare: Fixes one on Ramsay during the entire meet between she and the rest of the lords sworn to House Stark, and Bolton's men. It's a miracle the [[BastardBastard bastard]] didn't burst into flames.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Despite their rough introduction, she eventually mellows to Jon and Sansa. She even nominates Jon as the new King in the North, which the other lords accept.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Even before the viewers get to see her, her blunt nature (for her age) is established in her letter to Stannis, refusing to support him or any other king who isn't a Stark of Winterfell. In her first appearance, she brushes off any attempts at smooth talk and flattery by Jon and Sansa and dominates the scene with her presence, in spite of being a little girl.
* ExactWords: Lyanna pledges loyalty to the Starks, but not to Sansa, who is technically both a Lannister and a Bolton, nor to Jon, who is illegitimate. This changes after the battle, as she is the first to name Jon, King in the North.
* {{Foil}}: Take a minute to compare this girl with Tommen Baratheon and Robin Arryn. Tommen and Robin have access to far more soldiers and hold far more power, furthermore they are male and expected to be badass, yet both are weak-willed puppets lacking any form of autonomy or guts. Lyanna is a girl with very few men and younger than both, but determined, wise beyond her years, clearly in charge, and tough as nails. She is also a lot like Bran when he ruled Winterfell but unlike Bran, who had vassals to protect, she only has to protect her own.
** Best of all, compare her to [[TheCaligula Joffrey]]. Where Joffrey was vain, she despises flattery. Where Joffrey hid at the sight of danger, she rides to meet her foes eye-to-eye. Where Joffrey made petty threats, she fulfills her promises. Where Joffrey was mad, cruel, and feared, she is responsible, thoughtful, and respected.
** To Lord Jon "Greatjon" Umber. Physically, they are opposites, with Greatjon being an older man who is LargeAndInCharge, while Lyanna is a LittleMissBadass. Greatjon is a BoisterousBruiser, Lyanna is an IceQueen. However, both have a blunt disposition and are fiercely loyal to House Stark, leading the effort to crown the current head of House Stark (Robb in Season 1, Jon in Season 6) the King in the North.
* FrontlineGeneral: She accompanies her men to Jon Snow's camp, putting herself at considerable risk. She also is part of the parley on Jon's side before the battle.
* HatesSmallTalk: She quickly shuts down the admittedly poor attempts at small talk and flattery during her meeting with Sansa and Jon. She'd rather just get to the point. Even her initial greeting ends so abruptly that it catches her guests unaware.
--> '''Lyanna:''' I think we've had enough small talk. Why are you here?
* IceQueen: She's a no-nonsense character and her frank nature is quite intimidating. Appropriately enough, her House's seat is called the Bay of Ice.
* IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the series until Season 6.
* IronLady: She's a [[TheStoic stoic]], determined, brave, and no-nonsense leader despite her very young age.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Her attitude is harsh but it's not incorrect. An illegitimate son and a twice-married lady arrive requesting she aid them in another war for the Starks, even though neither -- despite being of Stark blood -- are legally Starks. Loyalty is not reason enough to risk losing everything.
* LittleMissBadass: Despite her age, Lady Lyanna Mormont proves to be just as fierce in person as her written words to Stannis indicated. This is a girl who can [[ShamingTheMob shame an entire room]] full of northern lords three times her size and age.
-->'''Davos''': I suspect if [House Mormont soldiers] are as fearsome as their lady, the Boltons are doomed.
* LittleMissSnarker: She's full of sass.
* MeaningfulName: Lyanna was named after Lyanna Stark, the mother of Jon Snow. Fittingly it is Lyanna Mormont who first declares Jon Snow to be King of the North, and convinces the other Northern houses to follow her lead.
* MemeticBadass: Out of universe, fans quickly latched on to the little girl who stole every scene she was in, with several memes showing her to be the strongest character in the story. In-universe, Davos is clearly impressed that her attitude face-to-face matches her terse written correspondence. Moreover, Lyanna Mormont made sure everyone knew that House Mormont was the first to commit to Jon Snow, and she is directly responsible for Snow's ascendance as King in the North.
* OneSteveLimit: A rare aversion for the TV show, which otherwise went out of its way to ''enforce'' a One Steve Limit onto the source material, i.e. "Robert Arryn" was changed to "Robin Arryn". The showrunners argued, with some validity, that while the long books could get away with multiple characters with the same first name, it would have been too confusing in the more condensed format of a TV series. Lyanna Mormont was a rare exception, because it's a plot point that she's a DeadGuyJunior, named after Lyanna Stark.
* OutsideContextProblem: Ser Davos wins her support by affirming their true enemy is the Night King and the real war is between the living and the dead. The Boltons divide the North and the Northern houses will [[DividedWeFall fall]] if they are allowed to remain in power. Faced with long odds against the Boltons versus no chance against the White Walkers, Lyanna opts to take her chances fighting alongside the Starks.
* QualityOverQuantity: Although the force she can offer is small, she claims that each of her warriors are worth ten mainlanders (evocative of House Mormont's sigil animal; a [[BearsAreBadNews bear]]). Considering how badass Northern soldiers have generally been portrayed when fighting larger southern forces, this is quite the BadassBoast. This isn't an idle boast, either. As explained in the novels, the Bear Island is off the northwest coast of the North, so they're ''constantly'' fighting off not only wildling raids (in small fishing ships) but heavy raids from the Ironborn coming up from the south. Thus they have very strong martial traditions -- look at how tough Jeor was and Jorah still is -- and they also had to train even their daughters to be warriors (to survive while the men are out at sea in fishing ships).
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Most of her decisions are taken with advice of her maester and sentinel but she also knows when it's her call. Even though she is loyal to the Stark she won't throw her men in battle without convincing arguments and does not ask any large compensation from the Starks when she sides withe them as they are her liege.
* RefugeInAudacity: As contrary as it may seem, her honesty and bluntness are actually even more effective coming from the mouth of a ten-year-old girl than they might be from an adult.
* ShamingTheMob: At the gathering in Winterfell following the retaking, she firmly reminds the other Northern houses lords that they didn't do anything to help the Starks after the Red Wedding and after said houses were betrayed by the Boltons and Freys. Lord Manderly admits she's right.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Lyanna Mormont is literally the ''only'' head of a major Northern House shown to be female, even during their war council in the Season 6 finale. In the books, at least four Houses are headed by women at this point (due to all the men dying in the war). Notably, in that same war council scene, "Lord Cerwyn" appears -- in the books, House Cerwyn is headed by a ''woman'' at this point, because Ramsay killed her father and brother. The TV series actively gender-swapped female leaders into male ones -- possibly to showcase Lyanna as "exceptional" (when in the books, female rulers are fairly commonplace).
** Lyanna Mormont is literally the ''only'' female head of a major vassal House (not one of the Great Houses like the Tyrells or Lannisters) who has appeared in the first six TV seasons that is both a recurring role and has speaking lines. She's also only the ''second'' female head of a major noble House to have speaking lines -- the first was Anya Waynwood in Season 4, who only appeared in one episode. Even though Lyanna's mother Maege did appear on-screen in Season 1, she didn't have any speaking lines nor was she identified in dialogue (it was really just a cameo).
* SpannerInTheWorks: Unknowingly throws Littlefinger's plan to make Sansa his puppet out of whack by choosing Jon Snow as king.
* TheStoic: Past her DeathGlare to Ramsay Bolton, she shows very little emotion.
* UndyingLoyalty: She lets Stannis know in no uncertain terms that House Mormont will only follow House Stark. When Jon and Sansa call upon her to aid them against the Boltons, Lyanna eventually decides to uphold their millennia old alliance and fight with them once again. Once the Stark alliance reclaims Winterfell, her [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech scathing words]] shame all the other northern lords, many of which did not answer the Starks' call, and then she becomes Jon's kingmaker. Despite being unable to devote not even a hundred troops to the Battle of the Bastards, she turned out to be by far the most valuable ally that Jon and Sansa recruited.
--> '''Lyanna:''' House Mormont has kept faith with House Stark for a thousand years. We will not break faith today.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: The young Lady Lyanna is quick to point out the many flaws with a Stark/Mormont alliance without even bothering to consult her advisers. Jon isn't legally a Stark, but a Snow, and Sansa is a Lannister or a Bolton (depending on the source). She then rather bluntly asks why should she risk Mormont soldiers for a Stark, especially after the losses they suffered last time around. It's only when Ser Davos gives a rather sobering account of the real threat, [[ZombieApocalypse the undead hordes]], she agrees to help.
--> '''Lyanna:''' Why should I have to risk one more Mormont life for someone else's war?
* YoungAndInCharge: Lady Lyanna is now the leader of House Mormont despite being a child. Judging by how she handles the room and her own adviser during her meeting with the Stark leadership, she certainly seems to have the disposition for it.
