Game of Thrones in Adorable Animal Form
Game of Thrones is usually a bloody, sexy drama on HBO, but what if it aired at 2PM on Nick Jr instead? Also, is Nick Jr. still a channel?
It might look something like this, a kid friendly battle of animals clans, all vying for the king of the jungle title. This project is from artist Renaud Forestie, and has the major houses of the show in cute and cuddly form which you can check out above and below.
No offense to House Tully, but you went with a fish? Really? Out of every animal in existence, a fish? You had better be damn good swimmers at least.

I think the animals were chosen based on the location of the house that chose them. Tully is based at Riverrun which naturally is surrounded by a natural moat of rivers.
Basically the choice there is Trout (which it is), Caddis Fly Larva, Mayfly, or Algae.
I know which one I would choose.
Stark is the North, so wolves
Mormont is bear island, so bear
Arryn is the Eyrie up a mountain, so Eagle
Greyjoy is the Iron Island, so sea monster
Targaryens always had dragons, so dragons
Baratheon is the King’s one, so crowned stag
Lannisters are blond, vaguely aryan, liony people, so lion
It’s just I think GRRM ran out of animals for the millions of houses he made up.
Not every house has an animal, for example the Tyrell’s from Highgarden are the roses, and the Martell’s from Dorne are represented by the spear.
Complete agreement with RBourne. Because they’re located at Riverrun, the intersection of 3 rivers, their emblem is a fish. Similar with the Mormonts, who are the bear for their location on Bear Island.
All need is for each banner-animal to give a “peace sign” with their paws/hooves/finger-y things to make this a tribute to Japanese kawaii fandom.
hella cute.
