'''Family'''
 
* '''Parents:  
The '''Yanovna''' name is a grand one in his homeland - a combination of centuries old money, wielded power within the theatre communities, and not inconsiderable political influence. He has a strong relationship with his sister, Lisa, and tries to keep in touch with her whenever possible. Being the youngest of the family, his older brothers were around to teach him how to not treat other people, then disappeared to form families of their own.
** '''Father''': Thierry Yanovna (Ballet composer)
 
** '''Mother''': Nyura Yanovna (''Principal Dancer'', '''Prima ballerina assoluta''', Mariinsky Ballet, St Petersburg)
Chris has distanced himself from his family in recent years, due to several revelations he isn't proud to know of. Due to this, among other factors, he likes to use the Federation Standard version of his first name, Christopher, instead of Krištof (Христофо́р), and to distance himself from his familial legacy, he uses the surname Johns - his mother's maiden name.

He keeps himself in excellent physical condition and uses the holodeck as training for ballet practice. He likes good food, especially flaky 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.
