===<font color=grey>Immediate Family</font>===
Years in the building, through one lifetime or another, the small family of the t'Sienelis clan residing on the [[USS Gorkon]].

|'''Llaiira t'Sienelis'''
[[Image:Noimage.jpg||100px|left|]]
''Daughter'': Valesha and Chris' daughter, born 239907.24 after a harrowing journey into the universe. Born beautiful, with soft Romulan ridges on her forehead and miniature ears cresting in small points like her mother's, under a thatch of wavy chestnut hair like her father's.

|'''[[Valesha Sienelis]]'''
[[Image:Sienelis (2399 Uniform).png|100px|left|]]
''Partner/Wife/Ailhun'': A friendship formed over "years" within the dreamscape of the [[Sweet Dreams Are Made of This (Gorkon)|Skarbek]]. When they awoke, they realized that wasn't the case, and the connection they believed they had didn't exist at all; it was only a result of being within reach when they fell to the dream machine. Missing their presence, the two began anew, forming a new relationship based on their experience, and moved ahead. He finds her blatant, feisty attitude and shameless sassy nature hilarious, and relishes every opportunity to provoke it. They professed their love for one another and spent shore leave together in Russia after finally realising their long-hidden love following a close encounter with her maker. The couple became engaged on [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-gorkon/7LsvV7gF2ug/FvNDrYj9AwAJ 239612.14] and married [https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-gorkon/c/pn2BkLyZ5-U/m/n3wNoNW1BgAJ 239808.07]. They are expecting their first child.

<br clear=all>
The '''Yanovna''' name is grand in his homeland and throughout the galactic stage - a combination of centuries-old money, a corporation of vast power and influence, and not inconsiderable political influence. Chris has distanced himself from his family in recent years, due to several revelations he isn't proud of. Because of this, among other factors, he likes to use the Federation Standard version of his first name, Christopher, instead of Krištof (Криштоф), and to distance himself from his familial legacy, he uses the surname Johns - the Latin form for his mother's maiden name "Ivans".

|'''Nyura Yanovna Ivans'''
[[Image:ChrisJohns-Mother.jpg|100px|left|]]
A warm and kind-hearted woman, with sweet affection for all of her children, and a dedicated career as a decorated Prima ballerina assoluta. Highly educated and incredibly intelligent. Passionate dancer. Heir to Yanovna Holdings, and daughter of Yanov Yanovovich Ivans, she chose not to pursue the family line and instead passed the dealings onto her husband, son and daughter. Her wants for Chris are carefully balanced between wanting him to live his own life but come home to realise his potential as a professional dancer.

|'''Thierry Oleksandrovich Ilyin'''
[[Image:ChrisJohns-Father.jpg|100px|left|]]
A self-made billionaire in his own right, Thierry's roots were never humble. He is strong-willed, capable, and fiery, with a sharp mind for business dealings, although his kill switch tactics blur the line between financial gain and family matters. His relationship with his children is measured affection — loving one moment, kept at arm's length the next — and his relationship with Chris is no different. Driven by power, his shrewd attitude means he never reveals his full hand to anyone.

|'''Elisaveta Thierovna Yanovna'''
[[Image:ElisavetaYanovna.png|100px|left|]]
The Director of Enterprise in [[Yanovna Holdings]], Elisaveta is set to take the top seat upon the (eventual) retirement of their father. She has similar traits — shrewd, tactful, measured, charismatic — but a little softer around the edges. Chris and Lisa were close as children and adults, up until he left for Starfleet Academy. They maintain regular contact — Valesha being a favourite of Lisa and daughter Ana.

===<font color=grey>Friends</font>===
Friendships have always come easy for the outgoing young man, who will talk to anyone if they stand still for long enough. He looks for personalities in people he admires or bounces off. The easy friend who will be there for someone in a day, in a month, in ten years - whether they've kept in touch. His family he chooses.

|'''[[Caedan Nkai]]'''
[[Image:Caedan Nkai 2399 Uniform.png|100px|left|]]
The Chief of the Operations Department, Caedan and Chris have been friends and accomplices in operational mayhem for a number of years. They work incredibly well together, bouncing off one another's natures, and can often be found boogying to some slice of music in the Ops Office.

|'''[[Vorin]]'''
[[Image:Vorin.png|100px|left|]]
A Vulcan Chris would say he is close too. If one can. He regularly participates in the games Chris runs with satisfactory enthusiasm, seems to love uttaberry muffins, and can act as a guiding hand for Chris when he's in need of a steadying voice.

|'''[[Robert Peek]]'''
[[Image:RobertPeek.png|100px|left|]]
A young Human male with a head full of stars. They attended the Academy training course together, were often seen around one another in and out of classes, earning Rob the nickname "Stew" and Chris "Soup" from one keen-eyed Academy professor.

|'''Sen Baiden'''
[[Image:Noimage.jpg|100px|left|]]
A dependable and loyal Bactarian male, fascinated by Humans and the weird things they do. He spends most of his time trying to convince Chris that Humans have a hibernation cycle, ponders why Humans smack their hands together to celebrate something and thinks the practice of wearing secret pants beneath regular pants is strange.

The youngest of five siblings, Krištof (Христофо́р) was born and raised in Saint Petersburg, Russia, in a large house on the Neva River.  He grew up surrounded by ballet, with his eldest brother, sister and mother as troop members of the Mariinsky Theatre. Chris learned to dance at a young age and is an accomplished, and decorated, ballet dancer. There was an expectation that he would follow his siblings into the arts or professional sports, and for a time, he participated as part of the '''Corps de ballet''', earning '''Coryphée''' slots in specific pieces and '''demi-soloist''' in others, such as Konstantin Lëvin in ''Anna Karenina'' and the role of Puck in ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''.  He is also an hobbyist artistic skater, though he has lacked in pursuit of this hobby since his recruitment into Starfleet.

Never really feeling like he belonged in the dancing world, complete with all the drama he couldn't keep up with, Chris set his sights on a higher calling. Still undecided about his future, he decided against the Officer commission track at Starfleet Academy, and instead opted for enlistment, recruited into the Starfleet Command training school and completed his single year intensive training in 2392. He threw himself into the work and study, graduating from the Academy with '''Crewman, First Class''' status and a posting on the newly launched vessel, [[USS Gorkon]].
Never really feeling like he belonged in the dancing world, complete with all the drama he couldn't keep up with, Chris set his sights on a higher calling. Refusing to join the ranks of the family firm, and still undecided about his future, he instead opted for enlistment in Starfleet, recruited into the Starfleet Command training school, completing his single year intensive training in 2392. He threw himself into the work and study, graduating from the Academy with '''Crewman, First Class''' rank and a posting on the newly launched vessel, [[USS Gorkon]].


He keeps himself in excellent physical condition and uses the holodeck as training for ballet practice. He likes good food, especially good pastries, warm coffee on cold evenings, snow, skating, and open fires. He likes reading long novels about strife and tragedy, which contrasts with his happy personality, but there you go. ''Anna Karenina'' by Leo Tolstoy is his favorite book, with the central theme that happiness cannot be built on another's pain. His favoured line from the novel is the opening one, ("Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.") which says more about his family relationships than he likes to talk about.

His four-year tour is nearly at an end, at which point Chris will need to make the decision whether he wants to remain in Starfleet, or return to civilian life.  
During a shore leave spent on Deluvia IV, [[Valesha Sienelis|Valesha]] was charged with murder, espionage, and treason for crimes committed before she joined Starfleet. Refusing to believe the charges, the situation it threw them into — her escape and [[Operation_Sea_Devil_(Gorkon)|subsequent adventures]] — left Chris in no doubt who held his heart. Unable to do anything but wait, when she returned to the ship she'd been poisoned by a Romulan plant targeted for her specifically. For days as she recovered, he didn't leave her bedside in Sickbay, and finally when they both escaped down to Earth together, she confessed her love for him and he requited. The couple became engaged on [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-gorkon/7LsvV7gF2ug/FvNDrYj9AwAJ 239612.14] and married two years later on [https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-gorkon/c/pn2BkLyZ5-U/m/n3wNoNW1BgAJ 239808.07]. They are expecting their first child; a daughter they have nicknamed Rybka, meaning "little fish" for Valesha's passion for deepsea diving.  
 
Chris likes to use the Federation Standard version of his first name, Christopher, instead of Krištof (Христофо́р), and to distance himself from his familial legacy, somewhat, he uses the surname Johns - his mother's maiden name.  


For now, he is happy riding along the waves of his career in Starfleet, and preparing to become a father. He has less than two years left on his enlistment, and only time will tell if he continues with it.
