House Bolling is a noble house from the Stormlands. According to semi-canon sources, their arms are vairy orange and blue; upon a black canton, a golden stag beneath an orange bend sinister.[1] Their motto has not appeared.

History

The upper left side of the arms shows the Baratheon or Durrendon colors reversed beneath a bend sinister, an indication that the founder of the house was either a bastard or a descendant of a bastard of one of those lines.
