Regor
Regor is a niche of the Amber shadows with millions and millions of Shadow Viels. It is ruled by the House of Regor.
The tale of the House Regor is complicated and extensive. The vast amounts of warfare of the region of Regor is a tale of years. The realm is based on a primal artifact though its presence is not a public one and its location is a secret. The bloodline of Regor is immortal and dynamic in the same fashion as Amberites. A form of sorcery exists in Regor similar to Amber Sorcery.

Genealogy and Warfare of Regor
The Founder of the Line of Regor was Mihael of Regor and his two wives Eudoxia & Maria.
Borna-Regor Wars
The son of Mihael & Eudoxia was Alexis I who would father 13 bloodthirsty children who fought bloody wars among themselves for 1500 years over the succession to throne of Regor. The Eldest, Ivan Borna, and his younger brothers Dimitri, Alexi, & Fyodor contested over the bloody centuries. Ivan and Fyodor traded off the throne repeatedly. Ivan murdered his father and mother to seize the throne of Regor. His brother Dimitri Petrovna lead the battle to dethrone Ivan, but disappeared. While the sons of Maria and Alexis battled the children of Natalia and Alexis stayed out of the wars.
Eventually both the Borna and Regor Lines bled themselves out and Ivan and Fyodor's half brother Mydoris Zhenya took the ruined realm's throne to rebuild it and the Regor line.
Zhenya-Illiam Eam Conflicts
Mydoris Zhenya had one wife and one mistress. His mistress Eudoxia Illiam Eam bore one set of triplets who carry the Illiam Eam cadet branch name. His wife Catherine bore 7 children under the Zhenya line. Warfare among the two branches of Zhenya and Illiam Eam covered over a thousand years. These conflicts were more peaceful characterized by political movements, cold wars, and sabotage rather then bloody open warfare.
Open war erupted when Elizabeth Zhenya took the throne on the death of her mother Caterine rather then her elder brother Pavel Zhenya who declined and fled Regor. Peter Illiam Eam murdered Elizabeth and took the throne. Eventually Peter Zhenya defeated Peter Illiam Eam.
Pherick-Zhenya, Black Years War, & Patternfall Conflicts
These conflicts were unrevealed for centuries and manifested as strange wars, assassinations, intrigue and sickness. The details would be long in explaining. However when Alexander I was found dead his grandson Konstantine tried to seize the throne. Alexander I brother Nicholas I took the throne and drove Konstantine into hiding. Eventually the Pherick insurgents were defeated during the long reign of Alexander III. Konstantine was revealed and fought nearly to death and was revealed to have gone to the Courts of Chaos and become a Lord of Chaos.
Konstantine and Alexander III fought during the Years of Blackness which correspond with the Black Road and Patternfall Wars. Konstantine disappeared in defeat, and Alexander died. His son Nicholas II took the throne after the Black Years War.

Comments on Ancient Survivors
3rd Generation:
Dimitri Regor was the prime protagonist in the opening phase of the Borna/Regor wars. A witness to Ivan's murder of his their parents he rallied troops against him. The battle of the twins was brutal and shockingly devastating as the first wholesale war in Regor's long bloody history. Five bloody years cost the royal family 3 members; Maria Regor, Yevdokia Regor, & Maria Dolgorukova( Wife of Mihael Regor). In the war's 6th year Dimitri suddenly disappeared and was presumed dead, though Ivan denied any involvement in his death. His long absence was partially solved during the reign of Peter III. When he was discovered wander outside the shadows of Regor suffering from Amnesia so profound that he looses him memory completely every 4 years or so. He manages to disappear every time he is found and brought back to Regor no matter what lengths are gone to in keeping him safe. A big man, and a warrior born, he often is found in shadows warfields. Marfa Regor is a devastatingly good archer. Thin, almost elfin in appearance, she was a valiant member of the Regor military for hundreds of he early years, and a member of its inner council. Eventually weary, she retired from the warfield after the death of Ivan I. Living deep in the woods of Regor she is a frequent presence in Elf halls across Regor.
Ekterina Regor was the first High Priest of the Tiger. The Primal Tiger followed her with devout devotion. They were active parts of the Borna/Regor wars. During the second reign of Fyodor she resigned and went into seclusion after the Tiger left her to follow Borlok of Amber.
Feodosia Regor was dainty, ladylike, and a prime mover in the politics of the court of Fyofor. In time she grew sad, bitter and resentful of newcomers to Fyodor's court. She was the prime motivator that placed Tanya Borna on the throne when Fyodor died and no children of his could be found. This attempt to settle the conflict by re-seating the ex-empress and daughter of Ivan I backfired and caused great resentment in the family and the populace, souring her reputation terminally. After that she started traveling the shadows and rarely returned to Gorod Bogov except during coronations and baptisms.
