Has Roose flayed anyone? I thought he was against it because he has told Ramsay on different occasions to cut it out (pun intended) or at least keep it quiet. He knows if they flay people that the north will rebel against them which is why he gets pissed when Ramsay flays someone. He did rape Ramsay's mother which is horrible. Outside of that I don't think he's that bad. Just trying to protect himself and his house. Your comparison of him to Tywin was spot on for the most part. I've always said Roose is the north's Tywin Lannister. In the end, Roose wants peace but at the same time he wants to improve his family's standing politically. Betraying Robb after the war had been lost was his chance to do so. Ruthless? Sure. Horrible? Not so much. Robb brought the betrayal on himself

Ramsey is a good boy... he's just misunderstood.

I'm pretty damn confident he's flayed some people. Granted I don't think he makes a habit out of it in the same way Ramsay does, but I imagine he's probably flayed some thieves, rapists, and murderers in his day. Theon was pretty shocked he didn't flay anyone that had inhabited Winterfell.

But I'd say Tywin is evil too. Yeah, he wants stability, but only if it's under his rule. Other than that, neither Tywin nor Roose really give a shite. Both characters are textbook Lawful Evil.
