Who is Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones?

The Bastard of Bolton · House Bolton

Ramsay Bolton (The Bastard of Bolton) is a character in Game of Thrones, part of House Bolton. Roose Bolton's bastard, holding court in the Dreadfort's shadows, Ramsay was raised far from his father's name and wears the legitimized-heir's hunger openly. The Boltons' sigil is the flayed man, and Ramsay keeps the old family practice alive with enthusiasm his father finds useful and distasteful in equal measure. A smiling, theatrical sadist, he plays elaborate games with prisoners — kindness, hope, and escape are all just parts of the performance.
