In the books
In the Song of Ice and Fire novels, Meera Reed is the only daughter of Lord Howland Reed of Greywater Watch, the southern-most of the vassal houses sworn to Winterfell. Disparagingly called 'frog-eaters' due their lands lying in the swamps of the Neck, the Reeds and their followers (the crannogmen) keep to themselves and rarely travel beyond their borders. However, Howland Reed was an exception to this, becoming a noted friend and ally of Lord Eddard Stark, fighting at his side at many key engagements during Robert's Rebellion.

Sixteen-year-old Meera is a noted hunter and trapper.
