Afterward, he counseled that Lord Robert Baratheon should slash the throat of the legendary Kingsguard knight Ser Barristan Selmy, but Robert instead sent for his maesters to treat the wounds of Barristan the Bold. When Lord Eddard Stark called the banners of the north to fight in Robert's Rebellion, Lord Roose Bolton took up arms, fighting in the Battle of the Trident. Targaryen Eraīarba Bolton attended the Maiden's Day Cattle Show in King's Landing, but King Aegon III Targaryen chose to wed Daenaera Velaryon instead of Barba. For many centuries the Boltons have remained loyal to the Starks, although rumors persist that they continue to flay their prisoners in secret and maintain a hidden chamber in the Dreadfort to display the skins of their enemies. 'A thousand years ago', the Boltons bent their knees to Winterfell and agreed to abandon their practice of flaying their enemies. The Stark armies besieged the Dreadfort for two years before the Boltons capitulated to King Harlon Stark and dipped their banners once more. At some point unspecified centuries ago, the Boltons rebelled against the Starks. The Boltons threatened Winterfell during the reign of King Edrick Snowbeard. The Chronicles of Longsister state that during the Rape of the Three Sisters by the Kings of Winter, which occurred two thousand years ago, Belthasar Bolton had a Pink Pavilion made from the flayed skins of a hundred Sistermen. The Boltons survived the rebellion, although the Greystarks did not. Thousands of years ago, the Dreadfort rose in an unsuccessful rebellion with the Greystarks of the Wolf's Den against the Starks. King Theon Stark, the Hungry Wolf, and the Boltons defeated Argos Sevenstar and his Andals in the Battle of the Weeping Water. The last Red King, Rogar the Huntsman, submitted to Winterfell when the Andal invasion of Westeros was also beginning. This practice has given the Boltons a sinister reputation.

According to rumor, some Bolton lords wore the flayed skins of their enemies-including Starks, such as the son of Bael -as cloaks. The Boltons are said to have flayed the skins of several Stark lords and hung them in the Dreadfort. The Boltons achieved some successes against the Starks, with Kings Royce II and Royce IV burning Winterfell.

Since the Long Night the Red Kings were bitter rivals of the Kings of Winter, the Starks of Winterfell. It has been suggested that the legendary Night's King was a Bolton. Their land reached from the Last River and the White Knife to the Sheepshead Hills. The Boltons are an ancient and powerful house of the north who once ruled as Red Kings from the Dreadfort.
