- "Imagine, Nikolai, what your father would say were he to see this day."
- ―Vladimir Lenin to Nikolai Orelov at the start of Russian Revolution.[src]
Andrei Orelov was a member of the Narodnaya Volya, a group of Russian Assassins, the father of Nikolai Orelov, and is an ancestor to Daniel Cross.
After moving to Russia, Andrei joined the Narodnaya Volya, desiring to bring down the aristocratic rule over the country, who saw the organization to be terrorist in nature. When Nikolai was old enough, his father had him inducted into the Order as he had been, despite his son's own reservations.[1]
Andrei later died as of 1917, but was mentioned in a letter to Nikolai that had been composed by Vladimir Lenin.[2]
Trivia
- The name "Andrei" can be translated as "manly," ultimately from Greek aner, "man." Orelov is a foreign name and is most similar to "Orlov" (Оpлов), which means "syn orla" (сын орла), or "son of eagle."
