Anastasia Romanov

Anastasia Romanov, also known as Cousin Anastasia, was a member of the Romanovs, the ruling family of Russia, at the time of the Russian Revolution of 1917. Though believed to have died, Anastasia was rescued by Faction Paradox's Cult of Celebrity Death and indicted into the Faction as Cousin-thrice-removed Anastasia, later becoming one of its most famously rebellious members.

Life on Earth
Anastasia Romanov was born the third daughter of Nicholas II. Anastasia and her four siblings, along with her parents, were seemingly executed in the summer of 1918 following the Revolution; hher body was disposed of on 17 July, (PROSE: The Death of Empire) with Pieter Stubbe implied that he had eaten her remains.

A new lease of life
Anna Anderson later claimed to be Anastasia, having avoided her execution, though a DNA test later proved otherwise; (PROSE: The Death of Empire) but the real Anastasia did in fact survive thanks to the intervention of the Cult of Celebrity Death, a Faction Paradox subgroup who would abduct individuals famous for their deaths a few days before they met their demise, and leave a biodata duplicate to die in their place while recruiting the real deal into the Faction. (PROSE: The Book of the War)

Anastasia consequently became a member of Faction Paradox in the Eleven-Day Empire. She tried to teach Octavia Sutherland Russian. (PROSE: Warring States)

The Thirteen-Day Republic
Guided by Father Dyavol, none other than a resurrected Faction-conditioned form of her mentor Grigori Rasputin, Anastasia rebelled against the Faction and formed the Thirteen-Day Republic, recruiting the ghosts of five hundred Bolshevik soldiers (the Red Burial) as her personal guard by making them see that she had, herself, become a revolutionary. She soon became the Republic's dictator, and the stress eventually drove her paranoid.

After Faction forces, led by Cousin Octavia and joined by Anastia's own private guard the Red Burial, defeated the Republic in the Battle of Valentine's Day, Anastasia surrendered and, as punishment, was inserted into history three times, each time being mistaken for an impostor, (PROSE: The Book of the War) much like the earlier-mentioned Anna Anderson.
