External conflicts include the Black Years War & Patternfall Conflicts, as well as smaller conflicts erupting from special interests groups throughout Regor and from shadow systems of [[York]] and [[Azcala]], as well as smaller neighbors in a cosmological sense.

Princess Clarissa was the third daughter of Czar Mydoris and Czarina Catrine. A boldly outspoken child, she had much of the flaming personality of her bloody Regor Uncles.

Transportation by the Pattern of Amber might pierce their isolation but transportation by the Sigil of Regor will not. |
