House Bolton

House Bolton of The Dreadfort is a noble house from The Dreadfort in the North. They are an old line descended from the First Men, dating back to the Age of Heroes. The Boltons are known for their practice of flaying their enemies.

History
House Bolton were once Red Kings of the Dreadfort, fighting House Stark for kingship of the North for many years, but the Andal Invasion prompted cooperation, and so House Bolton bent the knee and were Kings no more.
