Exiled Lord of Bear Island and son of Lord Commander Jeor Mormont of the Night's Watch. Knighted on the breach at Pyke in 289 AC during Greyjoy's Rebellion, he took an unsuited Hightower bride at three-and-thirty and sold poachers caught on his lands to a Tyroshi slaver to pay her ever-mounting debts. Eddard Stark would have taken his head; he fled to Essos one step ahead of the headsman and there sold his sword to a young exile princess he had once been ordered to spy upon, and never sold it elsewhere thereafter.
