A mighty sorceress and an ex-queen of Amber. Daughter of the Ruling Queen Symnea of Thelusia. Cymnea bore Oberon 3 sons before he discovered he had fathered her centuries before. It was soon after their marriage was dissolved that the [[Consanguinity Laws]] were enacted. |
Aside from the controversy around their kinship, Cymnea was a good queen of Amber. In the earliest of days she formed the Court of Amber and supported the growth of the City and Nation of Amber during 10 centuries that Oberon was calming Shadow. Many Noble Houses bear Warrants of Title where her name is higher than Oberon's, denoting a Grant awarded while he was away. Even after her banishment he did not demote these houses or cancel town charters. She currently lives in a secluded monastery that she has not left for centuries. However, this does not hinder her from being the "Elephant in the Living Room" of Thelusian politics. She has walked the Pattern and has a Wild Imprint. | Aside from the controversy around their kinship, Cymnea was a good queen of Amber.

Among the Monsters of Amber is found the Spider Queen. A daughter of Oberon in a very dark world. Ganthri is the ruling shadow of a collection of a thousand interlocking realms. Nalshik rules Ganthri. Her bite is poisonous and her mother almost certainly came from Chaos. She is a ferocious predator, a living black widow spider and a nymphomaniac. Unlike the spider she does not necessarily kill her mates. She tends to like to keep them around as long as they are useful and playful. She dominates any of her own shadows she can find, slay those she could not break, enslaving those she could. She is the ultimate narcissus. She has walked the Primal Pattern, as well as having assayed the logrus, Mal at Riess, Sigil of Bursain. | Among the Monsters of Amber is found the Spider Queen.

It must be true, everything exists in shadow, even a nice Amberite.
