Christophe Aldric Pavlovich is the fraternal twin brother of the greedy Alexis Drusilla Pavlovich. Born in Makhachkala, Dagestan in what is now Russia on 1848, the parents abandoned him and his sister at a fairly young age because their relationships with them are rather estranged and restrained to the point of neglect. His birth father, Borislav Pavlovich, was a peasant. His mother, Hephzibah Hodadetova, was a Mountain Jew yarner.

Refugeeing to France in the midst of his birth country's ethnic tensions, He succeeded in earning money by landlording for over a decade. To him, becoming a French citizen is honest but inefficient - since he has already become rather fluent in French as time goes by.
