Fear Cuts Deeper Than Swords: A Song of Ice and Fire/D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder Quest

Also a note on being Heir to... well, anything, really. Plenty of Lords in Westeros have ended up having heirs other than their eldest... Mwhahaha!

What, so Roose might decide we're unsuited to rule? And replace us with Ramsay?

Somehow I'm not worried. An excuse to kill him would be great.

We might fall, but I'm not worried about that either.
 
Yeah, Domeric was the one who, OTL, went to meet Ramsay... and apparently died on the spot. Roose wanted nothing to do with his bastard.
Ramsay was the "I have literally no other candidates so I guess you'll have to do until I can get a less insane heir" choice for Roose.

He's very obviously a psychopath. That he's a psychopath wasn't the problem for Roose so much as the fact that he flaunted it.

A respectable Bolton keeps their flaying a secret, dammit. :V
 
And hey, afaik, people think he is kind of creepy what with being super pale and his leech habit, but not evil.

No one expects him to change his banner.
Precisely.

That said it's more than a little hilarious that his distinctive pink cloaks are probably a lot more nefarious than people realize.

I guess even Roose likes to secretly gloat.


EDIT: I went back and checked, and apparently it's a fur cloak rather than leather. There goes that theory.

But Roose totally flays people in secret.

I got a way of getting rid of both Boltons without falling or Kinslaying record all the shade stuff Roose does like the flaying and other evil and illegal stuff he has buried around and give it to the Lord Paramount of the North and since Domeric was away he didn't know about it he is clean and I read somewhere it was illegal to flay someone in the north.

"Ah yes, Young Domeric. It seems you had knowledge of the location of Lord Roose's... distasteful and illegal actions. But tell me, how could you have known? He is a very secretive man!"
"..."
"A conspirator and a rat! Lock him up for trial, too!"

Ramsay we can ironically get Roose himself to dispose of somehow. We can point out that the bastard is very clearly a menace to the "peaceful lands and quiet people" Roose so cherishes with regularly breaking the law and murdering and flaying openly.
 
[X] Imry Florent, Voice of Fox and Faerie

I like the chaos involved for imry, family and area follow the Seven but he is Old Gods blessed.

The Domeric vote is likely to win which is okay with me but first choice is imry the druid.

I have to agree with the person who pointed out Maege Mormont lacks magic.... She would have made a good Druid too....
 
[X] Domeric Bolton, Cleanser of the Dreadfort

Let's try to be the good guy who survives in ASOIAF. Hard mode all the way!
 
Yeah, Domeric was the one who, OTL, went to meet Ramsay... and apparently died on the spot. Roose wanted nothing to do with his bastard.

Not quite Roose apparently poisoned him which means as they must have shared a meal. That probably was not the first meeting unless Roose keeps a stock of poison on him just in case which would seem somewhat at odds with his usual preferences for killing people.

Let's be the one Bolton that isn't (figuratively) a bastard.

Yeah, there's a reason I put Domeric's Wisdom at 10 in that stat block.
 
[X] Domeric Bolton, Cleanser of the Dreadfort: You are Bolton, heir to the sinister Dreadfort, and scion of the Leech Lord. Yet your family's dark legacy does not call to you like it does your sire. You know the family's grim secrets, and perhaps seek to end them once and for all. But in this new world, dark things stir beneath the snows and graveyards. Rotting, decaying things. Is your father, Roose Bolton, involved in this? Or are darker things than even Boltons behind the sightless eyes of the dead? Nonetheless, you ride to purge the Bolton lands of these disquieting things. (Paladin Variant – Ghost Hunter, age 19, Early Undead Focus. Starting Location: Dreadfort, the North)

Sick of magic user main characters. I'm going with plan smash their face!

Keep in mind a Pathfinder paladin can raise the dead at high enough level which in ASOIAF makes them among the strongest setting in canon, though of course if it remains like that depends on how @Zioneer will add other Pathfinder classes.
