Editing Call to the Kin-Ambercon (section)

==Broods==
'''"Oberon had 47 children we know about, sort of, and only Eric is dead.  As you probably know the family is divided unofficially into four broods.

''''"<span style=color:red>The First Brood is often called the Monsters. They are the Children of his youth when he was young and growing in power and had little control over his lust or his children. The First Brood includes Fleece-the king of the Hounds of Mandalay, Adrian-the King of Mandalay, Cymnea-The First Queen of Amber, Av Reet the Djinn Lord, Eater-The God of the Undead,Hinarik the Necromancer, Vox the Great Dragon, and Nalshik the Spider Queen.  Depending which historian you talk to Oscric and Finndo are occasionally included in the First brood.  I list them with the second because they serve Amber even now in their own way. </span> 

''''"<span style=color:Green>The Second Brood or the Elders of Amber.  These are the ones Oberon brought to Amber or who were born here.  These are familiar names; Osric, King Finndo, Elfwine, Benedict, Oroslla, Borlak, King Eric, Corwin, Evelyn, Deirdre, Hamilton, Nina, Emilie, Gerard, Julian, Caine, Delwin, Sand, Fiona, Bleys, Llewela, Brand, Florimel, and Random.  These are his children he brought to Amber.  These are the ones he pit against each other to see who was most fit to replace him.</span>

'''"<span style=color:blue> The Third Brood are those children of this time he made sure could not reach Amber.  He did not want them to replace him no matter what happened. These included  Joseph, Hanvir, Kibar, Giovanni, Mirelle, Phillipe"</span>

'''"<span style=color:purple> The Fourth Brood, or the Unknown, are ones he either didn't know anything, didn't have much control over, or had no time to deal with.  These include Kundjiq, Jaques, Evelar, Evankala, Dalt, Pierre, and lastly Coral</span>"

'''"If you are keeping count that is 45.  Dworkin insists its 47 but he won't fill in the gaps, the nasty old screw."'''

'''"A few of the <span style=color:Green> Second Brood</span> had been brought to Amber, acknowledged, and then left.  Some of their own free will and some into exile. Elfwine had lived in shadow for centuries but handled certain royals poorly. He disappeared and only recently surfaced among the Amber Fea. Borlak was exiled by Oberon and chased out by Osric.  Evelyn is said to have been frail, sad, and reclusive, even in Amber.   She spent her time in the forests, where she made friend with the deep Fea of Amber. She and Corwin were close, traveling in shadow together, but in time she did not return. Delwin & Sand were born in shadow, raised there and brought to Amber by Oberon as adults when Oberon married their mother Harla.  Ill-treated by the others, they left when their mother aged poorly.  "
 
'''"Nina and Emile were brought to Amber when Julian and Gerard were young and the four had some adventures together.  Then one day they were gone.  This much I know of them from reports and stories of the time.  Of course everyone knows they were discovered imprisoned in the Realm of Adagalasck a few years ago and when word of it reached Amber Julian and Caine both fled to reunite with them.  After some adventures Julian became King of Adagalasck and Caine returned to Amber furious.  I am told he won't speak of it to you, Chris." 

'''"The stage was set for the battle royale with the <span style=color:Green> Second Brood</span> on the fire and when the war came it spiraled out of Oberon's control."

'''"So Patternfall comes and it all plays itself out as we all know too well. Amber wins. Oberon dies repairing the pattern and goes into the Tomb of the Ancestors of Darkness and Random gets his chair."
