The expanding Amberverse from dkap-amber
This page is primarily for players to keep track of PC and NPC locations. The place notations will be confusing to non-players.
This is a dot-generated picture (dot -Tsvg LocalAmberFamily.gv -o LocalAmberFamily.svg) from the Local Amber Family GV file. To expand out the blue “Cobaltfolk” or more information about Paulette or Kieron, see the Cobaltean Royal Family Bush. While the below is (as close to) age order as I can tell (and there are gaps) the succession list is different.
The Hamsters of which all other hamsters are merely shadows. Or some junk.
Created originally in a locked room, to be simply a visual aid, to explain the, at the time, current Family Amber difficulties, the way they were created somehow enabled them to be quite real, and of the bloodlines, and with the characteristics of the Amberites. All of them have walked at least their Pattern, situated in the Hamsterverse and some have even more impressinve credentials to their credit. Yes, they are actually hamsters, not hamster sized people. Fur and all.
The Hamsterverse is their new home. An invite there is a signal honor, or a statement that you need to spend some time studying Dworkinetics. Sometimes both.
Dworkinetics is a whole new way of looking at an individuals place in the universe. It seems to be mostly successful in those that are taught this way, to get along better with, in comparison to trying to oppose the entire universal order, and change it to their image.
All of the Hamsterites rank as Child Of Dworkin level (Oberon, basically) in general stats, with individuated talents as per the moulding and storytelling of Jean. And yet, the Hamsterites are quite compassionate, and are often willing to help those who have befrended them.

Look at the Cobaltean Royal Family page for more detail.
Most of the Cobaltians were in the same place - which was not Cobalt. It was the Egg Place, but then they moved back to their promontory, when Erica trumped them that all is stable, and they have begun to rebiuld.
The Cobalt Family Bush is more graphic, but outdated:
This is a newer dot-generated picture (dot -Tsvg CobalteanRoyalFamily.gv -o CobalteanRoyalFamily.svg) from the Cobalt Royal Family Bush GV file, but still needs updating with the information in the picture above:
Most dead Amberites are not listed on this page, as they are already listed above in birth order.
