''Dworkin Barimen'' is a fictional character in Roger Zelazny's The Chronicles of Amber, a fantasy book series. Dworkin hails from House Barimen in the Courts of Chaos. After obtaining the Left Eye of the Serpent through methods unknown, he fled into Shadow and met the Unicorn. With her help and using the Eye, he inscribed the Primal Pattern,〔〔 giving form to Amber.〔 Oberon, first king of Amber, is reportedly the offspring of Dworkin and the Unicorn. In the ''Dawn of Amber'' series, many of Dworkin's other children are introduced: *''Sons'': * *Oberon * *Locke, whose mother was Valeria Ryassa de Lyor ab Sytalla, Lady of Chaos * *Daren * *Titus and Conner, twin brothers * *Fenn * *Aber * *Mattus * *Taine * *Alanar * *two unnamed sons who went missing and were presumed dead *''Daughters'': * *Freda * *Pella * *Blaise * *Isadora * *Syara * *Leona * *two unnamed daughters who went missing and were presumed dead Throughout the ages, Dworkin stayed in court as an advisor and teacher of the power of Trumps,〔 with frequent absences to places unknown. His students include Oberon's children Bleys, Brand and Fiona. When the Primal Pattern of Amber was damaged, Dworkin went mad for the pattern was a reflection of his mind. He proposed the destruction of the Pattern (and thus, Amber and all the shadow alternate realities it cast) and then to create a new undamaged one. Deemed to be dangerous and unstable, he was imprisoned by Oberon. At least, that was the intent; Dworkin proved quite capable of leaving his prison. During Corwin's imprisonment in the Amber dungeons, Dworkin helped Corwin escape using a Trump of Cabra Lighthouse he drew on the dungeon wall.〔 ==In popular culture== Computer programmer Felix Croes uses "Dworkin" as a pseudonym, referring to Dworkin Barimen, and named his MUD software platform Dworkin's Game Driver.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dworkin Barimen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
