House Lannister words, A Game of Thrones
Hear Me Roar!
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The command demands recognition of the house’s strength before it does anything. Its confidence depends on a reputation that every Lannister inherits and must maintain.

“Hear Me Roar!” is the official House Lannister motto, distinguished from the widely repeated saying about paying debts. The house words are printed in the first novel’s family material and independently listed in Westeros.org’s heraldry. No individual character is credited for the collective motto.
