Game Of Thrones Series
Lord Ramsay Bolton, formerly known as Ramsay Snow, was the legitimized b****** son of Roose Bolton, Lord of the Dreadfort, and the unidentified wife of a miller.
During the War of the Five Kings, Ramsay is initially loyal to King in the North Robb Stark, retaking Winterfell from Theon Greyjoy on his orders but at the same time sacking the castle as part of his father's scheme to betray House Stark. Following the successful capture of Winterfell from the Ironborn, Ramsay holds Theon captive and utilizes extreme torture to break him into loyal submission; renaming him "Reek". Following Robb's murder and the decimation of the Stark-loyal northern army at the Red Wedding, he follows his father in pledging allegiance to House Lannister and is legitimized as Ramsay Bolton. Through an arrangement orchestrated by Petyr Baelish, he is wed to Sansa Stark, who escapes from Winterfell along with Theon, which drives him to murder his entire family on threat of being disinherited, becoming the new Warden of the North and Lord of Winterfell. Ramsay's rule over the North, however, comes to an end when Jon Snow retakes Winterfell with army of Free Folk and Stark loyalists. Ramsay is subsequently executed for his crimes against House Stark, leaving House Bolton extinct and restoring House Stark as the ruling family of the North
