Evgeny Ivanovich

Played by Chip Dunning

Evgeny spent most of his life known as Evgeny Ivanovich; although he was born Evgeny Marcoux in Paris in 1887. Elise changed his last name when they moved to St. Petersburg with his father. They never took the name Alekseyev for political reasons, as he [Yevgeni Ivanovich Alekseyev] is the illegitimate son of Tsar Alexander II, nor were they around Alexeyev's real family (the woman he married and their kids).

Family Tree

I have 2 sisters and brother - I am the oldest child. I have no knowledge of any of their whereabouts or even if they are still alive - including my mother.

  • Me - 38 at game start by Alekseyev
  • Nika - sister 3 years younger by Alekseyev
  • Leonard - half-brother 8 years younger by Louis
  • Odette - half-sister 12 years younger by Louis
