The famous character is an occultist anti-hero seeking immortality and world domination. He is described as dressing in "faultless evening dress, slender, having dark peculiar eyes and dark hair, and white toad-coloured skin." He lives in a bungalow on the Rue de Lafayette in Shanghai with his perennial companion, the black cat Apollyon (named after a dark angel) - huge, baleful, gleaming-eyed -. Nikola - cosmopolitan, cultivated, universally feared - is highly intelligent but unscrupulous. The novels included are: A BID FOR FORTUNE DR. NIKOLA RETURNS THE LUST OF HATE DR. NIKOLA'S EXPERIMENT FAREWELL, NIKOLA!
