Holland by Night

Simon Le Mal first saw the light of day in 1900 and never saw it again since 1937. Simon was the illegitimate son of Rasputin and an unknown woman of royalty, an accident that happened during one of Rasputin's many orgies with women of respectable standing during the height of fame in the early 1900s. 
Simon was kept a secret by the family, and most of his youth kept locked away in the cellar or attic of the family house in St. Petersburg. Only a few times he was allowed and tolerated to play outside (disguised as one of the servants) when he met Anastasia the daughter of the tsar and tsarina. They fell in love and many times whenever possible met secretly. When his mother found out afraid that rumors might spread she sent her son to the front to fight in the First World War hoping he would never return. But he did, only to find that Anastasia and the royal family had been murdered by the Bolshevics and that his mother and stepfather had fled to France. After all the horrors Simon had seen in the war, and the little hope that was left to see his beloved Anastasia again, had been crushed, Simon went mental... 
He wandered the streets of St. Petersburg drunk, telling everybody he was the son of Rasputin, and that the crazy monk often appeared to him and spoke to him, and that he had inherited his healing and visionary powers. After Simon had murdered an old pawnbroker and her daughter with an axe, he was first sentenced to death, but by some unknown reason this sentence was revoked and he was sent to a mental institution, where he spent seventeen years of his life until...
One night Anastasia appeared in his cell and said she could free him just with a kiss... They both fled the asylum and spent six nights together until Anastasia suddenly disappeared. Again on the wandering trail in search of Anastasia, Simon ended up in Paris where he met his stepfather and mother, who now after so many years finally accepted him as their son and heir to the family fortune.
Simon used the money to start a pharmaceutical company (Le mal Pharmaceuticals), that produced many very successful medicins. It is rumored that his father Rasputin whispers formulas for medicine in Simon's ear when he's asleep.
Simon Le Mal now spends most of his time traveling for business and searching for his one great love, Anastasia Romanov.
