Reigan Shen, the Emperor of Lions, is a Sacred Lion, and a Monarch in Cradle, who rules over most of the Rosegold continent.
He practices the Path of King's Key, using Force Madra combined with the Authority over Space, which he was lucky enough to inherit from a Remnant of a Sage.
History
"Reigan Shen is the creator and sole practitioner of the Path of the King's Key. Centuries ago, he consulted an oracle and grew to believe that he was destined to rule the world. He seeks to make that vision a reality.
He fought the Eight-Man Empire to a standstill, though they eventually drove him off. He has stolen Northstrider's prey.
He is considered one of the Ninecloud Court's greatest enemies, though everyone below the Queen is instructed to treat him as an honored guest, should he arrive.
Only about six years ago, he finally slew his longtime rival" ― Will Wight[[source]]
In the books
In Underlord, Reigan Shen recruits the four cults of the Dreadgods to his cause, to represent him in the Uncrowned King Tournament.
In Uncrowned, we learn that Reigan Shen's rival was no other than Tiberian Arelius, the Arelius Monarch. And that he knows Eithan, and had mocked him for running away.
In Wintersteel, Shen begins to fear that Eithan might win the Tournament, so he deals with him. If Eithan will throw the match, Shen will send his Sage Rootfather to restore war-torn the Arelius homeland. He will ensure refugees from the Blackflame Empire are allowed safe passage. He will give Eithan his soul forge, kept in a void key. Etc.
Reigan Shen and Seshethkunaaz joined forces and have a plan to wake and kill the Dreadgods, by luring them to the Western Labyrinth, where its security defences will supposedly weaken them. The results of the tournament might decide if the other Monarchs join them.
In book 10, Reaper Shen is still in the labyrinth, working on information Tiberian Arelius gave him, before Shen killed him. He takes the core binding from Subject One, and he takes the ancient soulforge of Ozmanthus Arelius. He battles Lindon and the team. It becomes clear that Shen really wants the Dreadgods to kill all the other Monarchs so he can rule the world himself.
