Nikita Aleksandr Reznikov

Nikita Aleksandr Reznikov (Russian: Никита Александрович Резников) was a former KGB officer and the father of NCIS Special Agent G. Callen, Amy Callen, and Alexandra Reynolds.
==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
Presumably born in an unknown area in Russia, not much was revealed about Nikita's early life.
Years later, Nikita joined the KGB and worked for them as an officer. He later went undercover to Romania (Presumably under the alias Aleksandr Nikolaev, given Russian naming conventions), met Clara Callen who was also undercover and the two got married, having two children, a girl named Amy and a boy named Grigori ‘Grisha’ Aleksandrovich Nikolaev. 
Unfortunately, the family life was not to last as Clara was murdered on a beach in Romania by two associates of the Comescu family while in the presence of her young son during 1974 with Nikita sending the kids overseas before he got arrested. Amy and Grisha were separated from one another, the two living in separate orphanages. 
Clara's handler, Henrietta Lange, learned two years later that Clara’s children were in the United States, putting Grisha in foster care. Sadly, Amy passed away before Hetty located her.
His wife dead and his children in a new country, Nikita escaped during transport to the gulag then devoted his life to hunting for members of the Comescu family who was responsible for Clara's death, the origins being a blood feud between Clara's family and the Comescus.
At some point, Nikita met a young boy who was a member of the Comescus but who had been orphaned, Nikita having just murdered the boy's parents in revenge to them being Comescus. He then adopted the young boy and raised him as a surrogate son, the boy taking on the name of Darius Reznikov.
To help his identity a secret, Nikita created an alias for himself: Konstantin Chernoff and under the disguise of Chernoff, then began smuggling refugees out of the Soviet Union, relocating them to America with the help of former KGB officer, Arkady Kolcheck with the two men working together for the next fourteen years until 1988. 
They regularly met in Chernoff's "office", a local cafe in Moscow which has a photo of Chernoff on its wall, Chernoff living just outside of Moscow in a town called Ruza. Chernoff supposedly died in 2008 and is buried in the town's cemetery while the cafe itself donned a photo of Chernoff on its wall.
Nikita retired from working in 1988 and stopped using the "Chernoff" alias, many believing Chernoff was dead with his remains being buried in the local cemetery.
After that, Nikita met Katerina Pulonin and the two had a relationship, resulting in Katerina giving birth to a daughter, a girl they named Alexandra.
Upon Alexandra's birth, Katerina fled Russia and upon arriving in the United States, relocated to Los Angeles, changing her name to Mary Reynolds.
In 2017, Katerina was used as bait for Nikita, the woman being poisoned to lure him out. At this point, G. Callen learned about his nephew and half-sister, telling Nikita to tell Alexandra the truth. Although delayed, they did eventually tell her together and the group started spending time together, trying to get to know each other and be a family.
Unfortunately, in March 2018 Nikita was then traded to Russia for an American, the family being ripped apart (at least temporarily) as Alexandra decided she no longer wanted a relationship with G. Callen for failing to stop their father being traded away.
On May 5, 2019 Nikita, weakened by his treatment, passed away due to a lung infection caused by his harsh treatment the past year.
