Game of Thrones, Episode 1: Winter is Coming

Jorah Mormont’s Role in the Episode

Jorah Mormont makes his debut in this episode and plays a minor but significant role in introducing himself to Daenerys and Viserys Targaryen. His involvement serves to establish his character as a former Westerosi knight now living in exile, aligning himself with the exiled Targaryens.

  • Context of His Role:
    • He presents Daenerys with a gift of books containing the histories and songs of Westeros, subtly emphasizing his knowledge and connection to their homeland.
    • He introduces himself as Ser Jorah Mormont of Bear Island, revealing his past allegiance to House Targaryen.
    • His conversation with Viserys hints at his loyalty—or at least his political pragmatism, as he expresses support for the "rightful king" while being cautious about Viserys’ impatience.
    • He remains largely in the background at Daenerys' wedding but provides foreshadowing for his later role as an advisor and protector.

Impact Rating: 2.5/10

  • Establishes His Character – His introduction reveals his backstory and motivation.
  • Foreshadowing – His presence hints at his eventual role as a protector and advisor to Daenerys.
  • Minimal Immediate Influence – He does not yet take any actions that directly change the course of events.
  • Limited Screen Time – He is present in a few brief moments, mainly as a passive observer.

Final Score: 2.5/10 - Jorah Mormont’s role is minor but foundational, as it sets up his future importance in Daenerys’ storyline, though he does not yet impact the episode’s main events in a meaningful way.
