Actor Hunger. Irish actor Liam Cunningham was an electrician in the mid 80's. He saw an ad for an acting school and he decided to give acting a try. His first film role was as a policeman in "Into the West. Rather, Ramsay's goal was this very uncertainty: even if Theon were dead, the ironborn's line of succession would at least be clear, but not revealing the fate of Balon's heir generated confusion and dissent within their ranks.

The TV version altered this, but still makes clear that Ramsay never offers hostage terms for Theon. In the TV version, Ramsay's plan is that slowly torturing Theon and mailing pieces of him to Pyke will eventually frighten the Greyjoys into withdrawing from the North.

Another possible reason for Ramsay's treatment of Theon is that Ramsay resents him for the time he served Theon in Winterfell, disguised as the original Reek. The fact that Theon treated Ramsay rather correctly and followed his vile advices among them, killing the miller's sons to cover the escape of the Stark boys makes no difference to Ramsay. In his eyes that servitude was humiliating, and it is his twisted way to pay Theon back by reversing the roles: now he is the master and Theon is Reek the servant.

Although Ramsay is noted as being a fierce fighter, he is undisciplined in warfare, lacking form or finesse, and is described as wielding his sword like a meat cleaver. Roose admits it is not entirely Ramsay's fault, it is because Reek the original was his only tutor, and Reek himself was never trained at arms.

In the TV series, however, he is depicted as a deadly hunter and archer, easily dispatching six of his own men within seconds. According to Roose, Ramsay has deluded himself into believing that massacring unarmed prisoners such as at Winterfell and Moat Cailin makes him a skilled battlefield commander, when in fact he has never won a real battle. He also receives a long rebuke from his father for flaying alive unarmed men who surrendered Moat Cailin after Ramsay promised them safe passage home.

Roose points out that Ramsay will never be trusted again, and the enemies of the Boltons will now fight to the death rather than surrender to them.

In the books, Roose never speaks about Ramsay's conduct at Moat Cailin, nor about its long-range applications. In the books, Ramsay is known for his ostentatious taste in clothes; garbing himself in velvet, silk, and satin, usually in the Bolton colors—pink and red. In the show, however, Ramsay's attire is considerably more subdued, in order to fit in with the established drab dress code for northern characters. That being said, the leather jerkin Ramsay wears in season four is, in fact, a very dark shade of reddish purple: a subtle reference to his literary counterpart.

Ramsay subjects Jeyne to emotional and physical torture, even forcing Reek to take part. When Stannis Baratheon's army approaches, Ramsay prepares to lead a counterattack, but the actual battle has yet to be depicted. Notably, Ramsay unwittingly serves as the true catalyst of the Mutiny at Castle Black. He apparently sends a letter to Jon Snow at Castle Black, boasting that he has killed Stannis and captured Mance Rayder whose execution was faked and whom Jon sent to Winterfell to rescue Jeyne, believing it was Arya , but revealing that Jeyne and Theon have escaped.

In the letter, Ramsay furiously demands that Jon return Jeyne and Theon to him, and hand over Selyse Baratheon , Shireen Baratheon , Melisandre , Val Mance's sister-in-law and several of Stannis's court to him as hostages, threatening that if Jon does not, he will march on the Wall and kill him.

Finally pushed to his breaking point, Jon instead decides that he will head to Winterfell in order to confront and kill Ramsay himself, arguing that Ramsay violated the Night's Watch neutrality first by threatening to kill the Lord Commander.

On his way out of Castle Black, however, he is confronted and stabbed by his own men, led by Bowen Marsh. Whether the contents of Ramsay's letter are entirely true or not remains to be seen, since Stannis was revealed to be alive in The Winds of Winter. The subplot of Jon's increasing anger at Ramsay is initially cut from the fifth season, though their rivalry from A Dance with Dragons was alluded to when Ramsay compared himself to Jon and outright expressed a determination to rise to power like Jon did.

The sixth season, however, sees Ramsay come into contact with Jon for the first time in the series via the Bastard Letter, which ultimately leads to their climactic showdown, the Battle of the Bastards. In the books, Ramsay is often accompanied by a gang of brutal sadistic lackeys called "the Bastard's Boys", who assist him in his atrocities.

Ramsay is unaware that they all report to Roose about his deeds, as the latter secretly reveals to Reek. There are no women among the Bastard's Boys. In the TV version, Myranda is loosely a condensed and gender-swapped equivalent to them. She is mentioned to be the kennelmaster's daughter, perhaps a nod to the one called Ben Bones.

Ramsay sees his baby half-brother, moments before he kills him and his mother. Ramsay Snow : " I brought him back. He killed the others. No, I didn't!

You can't! Please don't! Ramsay Snow : " Let's play a game: Which body part do you need the least? Theon Greyjoy : " I'll tell you everything. Your daddy was mean to you? The Starks didn't appreciate you?

One good bit, though. The Stark boys, they're still alive. Wouldn't that be a hunt to remember? You failed, but I'm a better hunter than you. Ramsay Snow : " You've been wondering why you're here, haven't you? Where you are, who I am, why I'm doing this to you. So guess. You win the game if you can figure out who I am and why I'm torturing you, and I win the game if you beg me to cut off your finger.

Ramsay Snow : " Where are we? Cuts Theon's finger; Theon screams " — Ramsay tortures Theon. Ramsay Snow : " Now where? Theon Greyjoy : " Karhold! How did you know that? Did you see any banners flying when we came in? Ramsay Snow : " Who am I? Strangled by the Kingslayer.

Your father is Lord Rickard Karstark. Ramsay walks back to his chair You swore to tell me! I betrayed Robb, that's why you're torturing me. Well, one reason. I enjoy it. I bet you always thought they loved you back. Your famous cock must be very precious to you. Would you say it's your most precious part? Theon Greyjoy : " Please, mercy! I'm not killing you. Just making a few What, you think I'm some sort of savage? An amputee might have an itch where his foot used to be, so I've always wondered, do eunuchs have a phantom cock?

The next time you think about naked girls, will you feel an itch? I shouldn't make jokes. My mother taught me not to throw stones at cripples That's a name for a lord, but you're not a lord, are you?

You're just meat. Stinking meat. Sniffs him You reek That's a good name for you! Ramsay Snow : " What's your name? Ramsay backhands him " Ramsay Snow : " What is your name?

Ramsay punches him " — Ramsay and Theon [src]. I give you until the full moon to order all ironborn scum out of the North and back to those shit-stained rocks you call home.

On the first night of the full moon, I will hunt down every islander still in our lands and flay them living the way I flayed the twenty ironborn scum I found at Winterfell. In the box you'll find a special gift: Theon 's favorite toy. He cried when I took it away from him. Leave the North now or more boxes will follow with more Theon.

But he didn't make it easy, what with all that bloody noise. As my father likes to say: "A naked man holds few secrets.

But the flayed man Lord Whitehill told me you were young, but this Look at you! Like the queen and her brother. Well, hopefully not just like the queen and her brother But I don't want a bold lord. Far too much trouble. I've decided to come and see for myself.

I may have misjudged you, Rodrik. I came here to kill you, but now I realize it might be far more entertaining to watch you and Ludd tear each other to pieces. Rip her! Ramsay Snow : " We've been flaying our enemies for a thousand years; the flayed man is on our banners! You're not a Bolton , you're a Snow.

Yara Greyjoy : " Give me my brother and no more of your men will die. And with those big balls of yours, how fast can you run?

Hmm, strong, as long as they're in the sea. When you take them out of the water You'd think they'd know that. Unfortunately they're not very bright. Bring me Moat Cailin. Ramsay Snow : " You didn't really think I'd let them go, did you? It's fallen out of fashion, flaying. Sad, but true. But traditions are important. Where are we without our history, eh? Will we go home now? Roose Bolton : " Now tell me, what is your name?

I swear I will uphold your name , and your tradition. I'll be worthy of you, father. I promise. You remember what happens to people who bore me. Our blood ties go back thousands of years, so I'd like to drink to our wedding. May our happiness spread from Moat Cailin to the Last Hearth. Ramsay Bolton : " I heard you two had been reunited. A fitting place for it. I'd like to imagine that the last time you spoke was in this very room. Are you still angry with him? After he Don't worry. The North remembers.

I punished him for it. He's not Ironborn anymore, not Theon Greyjoy anymore. He's a new man. A new person, anyway. Aren't you, Reek? Ramsay Bolton : " And if it's a boy? I'm your son until a better alternative comes along. I hate asking a second time. Now watch her become a woman. Ramsay Bolton : " I'm Lord Bolton's eldest son. Another bastard? You didn't know?

Yes, he's done very well for himself. Ramsay Bolton : " Stannis isn't from the North. You are, father. I think you're missing an opportunity to show the people of the North how House Bolton treats southern invaders.

That we hit fast, and hit hard, and leave a feast for the crows. As long as we stay behind these walls, they can't touch us. Not to mention the snow is so deep, we couldn't get an army through to engage them even if we wanted to. I need 20 good men. Roose Bolton : " Jon Snow's a bastard, not a Stark. Ramsay Bolton : " Castle Black isn't defended on the South side. The few men left are barely men at all. Farmboys and thieves. With a small force, we could storm the castle, kill Jon Snow You'd unite every House in the North against us!

You allowed thousands of wildlings past the Wall. You have betrayed your own kind and you've betrayed the North. Winterfell is mine, bastard, come and see. Your brother Rickon is in my dungeon. His direwolf's skin is on my floor, come and see. I want my bride back. Send her to me, bastard, and I will not trouble you or your wildling lovers.

Keep her from me and I will ride North to slaughter every wildling—man, woman, and babe—living under your protection.

You will watch as I skin them living. You will watch as my soldiers take turns raping your sister. You will watch as my dogs devour your wild little brother. Then I will spoon your eyes from their sockets and let my dogs do the rest. Come and see. Ramsay Bolton : " Thank you for returning Lady Bolton safely. Now dismount and kneel before me.

Surrender your army and proclaim me the true Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North. I will pardon you for deserting the Night's Watch, I will pardon these treasonous Lords for betraying my House. Come, bastard. You don't have the men, you don't have the horses, and you don't have Winterfell.

Why lead those poor souls into slaughter? There's no need for a battle. Get off your horse and kneel. I am a man of mercy. Thousands of men don't need to die. Only one of us. Let's end this the old way. You against me. The way people in the North talk about you, you're the greatest swordsman who ever walked. Maybe you are that good, maybe not. I don't know if I'd beat you, but I know that my army will beat yours. I have six thousand men, you have Not even?

Will your men want to fight for you when they hear you wouldn't fight for them? Very good. Ramsay Bolton : " Tell me, will you let your little brother die because you're too proud to surrender? Now if you want to save Sleep well. I look forward to having her back in my bed. And you're all fine-looking men. My dogs are desperate to meet you. I haven't fed them in seven days. They're ravenous!

House Bolton are revealed as turncoats when they assist House Frey in the massacre known as the Red Wedding. The Boltons and the Freys kill Robb Stark, Catelyn Stark and all of the northern lords assembled at the Twins for Edmure Tully 's wedding while their forces kill off their bannermen. The Boltons launch a campaign to retake The North from the invading ironborn but their army is stuck south of Moat Cailin , cutting them off from entering the North.

Ramsay raises a small army and marches to Moat Cailin, intending to use Theon to persuade the Ironborn to surrender the fortress. Theon successfully gets the Ironborn to surrender, promising them mercy and safe passage back to the Iron Islands. However, upon being let into the castle, Bolton soldiers flay the Ironborn alive, and display their corpses in the courtyard of the fortress.

With their army now in the North, Roose and Ramsay March to Winterfell and begin repairs on the ruined castle. Though the Boltons, in Roose's words, have become a Great House and are now situated at Winterfell, the death of Tywin Lannister by his own son Tyrion Lannister hands has left House Bolton's protection in a dire situation, since they no longer have enough men to hold the North should the bannermen of House Stark rise up against them, especially in response to Ramsay's atrocities.

The Boltons also face a new threat in the form of Stannis Baratheon , who is garrisoned at the Wall and is planning to retake the North from the Boltons and rally the North to his army for another chance to take the Iron Throne. In order to strengthen their position, Roose conspires with Petyr Baelish to have Ramsay marry Sansa, unaware that Baelish is apparently plotting the Boltons' downfall in revenge for the part they played in Catelyn's death.

Roose is prepared to wait out Stannis until his army breaks from the bitter cold, although Ramsay obtains his father's permission to attempt a daring nighttime sabotage mission, one that destroys much of Stannis's food supplies, siege weapons, and horses. During the Battle of Winterfell , Sansa escapes with the help of Theon.

While Roose is pleased with Ramsay's battlefield command, he is more displeased that Sansa and Theon have escaped, severely jeopardizing their claim to the North. Marrying Ramsay and Sansa was nothing short of rebellion against the Iron Throne, and without a Stark in Winterfell, the other houses are unlikely to rally behind the Boltons when the Iron Throne sends its armies after them.

Ramsay's first attempt to recapture the pair fails due to the timely rescue of Sansa and Theon by Brienne of Tarth and her squire, Podrick Payne. Roose dismisses this proposal as outrageous, stating that Northern houses would almost certainly rise up in revolt against the Boltons should they kill the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch.

The birth of Roose's son visibly disturbs Ramsay, who knows that he no longer has the strongest claim to his father's titles and lands, being a legitimized bastard instead of a trueborn son. Acting quickly, Ramsay kills his father, his stepmother Walda, and his half-brother almost immediately after he hears the news of his half-brother's birth. His actions are witnessed by Harald Karstark , who appears unperturbed, and Maester Wolkan , who fearfully and reluctantly agrees to send ravens to the Northern lords that Roose has been poisoned by his enemies.

However, this also jeopardizes the future of his house as he lacks his father's foresight and strategic mind.

Furthermore, he has no heir, as he never fathered a child with Sansa. Later, Ramsay kills Osha after baiting her into attempting to kill him. Ramsay then pens a letter to Jon telling him that he has his brother Rickon and demanding the return of his wife Sansa.

If his demands are not met, he threatens to march to Castle Black and kill every wildling under his protection, have his soldiers rape Sansa, and burn Jon and Rickon alive after torturing them. At Sansa's urging, Jon agrees to start recruiting houses to try and overthrow the Boltons. Sometime before this, the Bolton army had supported the Glovers in liberating Deepwood Motte from the ironborn, successfully ending their campaign to retake the North. The two armies eventually meet at battle.

Immediately before the battle commences, Ramsay kills Rickon to lure Jon and his army into a trap. Ramsay sends forward his cavalry, who outnumber the Stark cavalry, but a fierce melee soon ensues, with both sides taking heavy casualties.

However, due to Ramsay constantly ordering his archers to fire into the battlefield, he kills all his horsemen, giving the Starks the upper-hand. As the battle rages on, Ramsay's army seizes the upper-hand, trapping the Stark army in a phalanx and moving in. However, the battle is suddenly turned around when Lord Petyr Baelish and Sansa arrive with the knights of the Vale at the behest of Lord Robin Arryn , the current head of House Arryn , the rulers of the Vale.

The Knights of the Vale smash through the unguarded rear flank of the phalanx, cutting down the remaining Bolton soldiers. Ramsay retreats to Winterfell with his general. Ramsay is confident they are able to hold off a siege, but Wun Wun begins smashing down the main gate. Bolton archers desperately fire off dozens of arrows, bolts and javelins into the giant, who uses the last of his strength to smash open the gate, letting the Stark forces enter.

They are able to retake the castle and annihilate the Bolton garrison stationed there. Wun Wun falls to his knees, on the brink of death. Ramsay gives the killing blow to the presumably last giant. Surrounded and with no troops left, Ramsay attempts to kill Jon with his bow and arrow, though Jon protects himself with a shield of House Mormont and nearly beats Ramsay to death.

However, out of respect, Jon stops when he notices his half-sister, Sansa, staring at him. Ramsay is imprisoned in the kennels, where he is later devoured by his starving dogs who are let out of their cages by Sansa. Ramsay's death and the annihilation of his army mark the end of the Boltons' reign over the North and the extinction of House Bolton as a whole. House Bolton commanded a formidable military prior to the outbreak of the War of the Five Kings, capable of fielding over 5, men.

Being formidable rivals of their Stark overlords for centuries, before ultimately swearing fealty to the Kings of Winter. Bolton soldiers seem to be well-equipped. This is particularly evidenced by the degree of standardization of weapons and armor purchased due to high taxation of the probably intimidated and extorted populace.
