Ramsay Bolton, born Ramsay Snow and called the Bastard of Bolton, is the baseborn son of Lord Roose Bolton of the Dreadfort in A Clash of Kings, a cruel young man of the North trailed by dark whispers.

In the North of A Clash of Kings, men have begun to speak, carefully, of the Bastard of Bolton. Ramsay, born Ramsay Snow, is the baseborn son of Roose Bolton, Lord of the Dreadfort, whose house is among the oldest and grimmest in the North; the flayed man on its banners remembers old and ugly customs. Ramsay carries his bastard name like a wound, insisting on his Bolton blood and turning savage at any reminder of his birth. Around the Dreadfort he keeps rough company and a pack of hounds he prizes above most men, and the smallfolk of the surrounding lands tell dark stories of his hunts. Little about him is known for certain in the wider North, and the worst of what is said travels in whispers.
