The youngest known Amberite of her generation, Victoria still feels very much the outsider in her family. Born fifty years after the Ancient Grudge, she has been perhaps the least touched by its legacy of any Amberite.

Victoria was raised outside Amber, in a Shadow called Atlantis, a refuge of Llewella's while she waited for memory of her poor choice of sides in the Second Rebellion to fade. Llewella, a Pattern mistress of consumate skill, found it child's play to locate a Shadow in which she was worshipped as a goddess, and could enjoy the finer things in life. Thus it was that Victoria was born as the daughter of the king of the most civilized and advanced kingdom in her world, and the supreme goddess.

It should come as no surprise that Victoria's psychological makeup is a bit strange.

Though Victoria took the Pattern some time before the beginning of the events chronicled in New Mutiny, she had spent little time outside her home Shadow of Atlantis. She was a true believer in the Atlantean religion, believing her mother to be divine, and herself half divine. As the High Priestess of the state religion and heir apparant to the throne of Atlantis, her attentions were carefully centered on the matters of governance and propriety.

Then Grayson found Victoria, a way-point on his quest to discover Amber and his father, Jonas. Victoria's well-ordered life met the first of its serious complications. When she helped Grayson get to Amber, Victoria found herself thrust into a sudden whirl of family politics.

Since her first introduction to the Family at large, Victoria has changed. Her initial quiet demeanor has burned away to show a stronger willed, more extreme Princess of Amber beneath. Victoria, it has become apparant, approaches nothing except on her own terms.

Though Victoria has been drawn by Llewella onto the Loyalist side of the Third Rebellion, she has always been a reluctant adherent to Mordred's cause. When he presented her with a loyalty oath to swear, she cut out her own tongue to avoid it. She has been an able subcommander on the field of battle (even with her continued self-inflicted muteness), but has threatened to withdraw from the conflict several times.

In the midst of the conflict in Amber, Victoria has created a series of revolutionary reforms in Atlantis, while simultaneously drawing an army there. Recently, the strain of keeping everything balanced has begun to show, and she has begun to try to stabilize some of her projects. In an effort to cement her position as a religious and not political leader, Victoria first raised her able subcommander Job to the role of high priest, and then married him.

It is perhaps appropriate that Victoria, quickly gaining a reputation as the most unpredictable of her generation, has developed a friendship with Fiona, the most aberrant of her own generation. That Fiona and Llewella have a long-standing distaste for each other seems only to add to Victoria's interest in her red-headed aunt. It would be fair to say that Victoria has some mother-issues.
