Dominic Wilkinson is the father of Katarina Rostova and grandfather of Elizabeth Keen.

Background

Not much is known about Dominic Wilkinson' past aside from the facts that he was born in Russia and that he is a notorious KGB agent that operated in the United States under the code name "Oleander", having been investigated by the FBI. Sometime in his life, he had his daughter Katarina Rostova with an unknown woman. Dom trained Katarina to be a KGB agent just like him and, as her handler, Dom assigned to Katarina the mission to seduce and spy on Raymond Reddington. Following the end of the Cold War, Dom moved to a reclusive house in the United States and assumed the identity of Dominic Wilkinson, a retired systems analyst, and cut down all ties with his family to protect them from reprisals.

Dom is among the very few who know that Raymond Reddington is not the real Raymond Reddington, but an imposter who took over his identity over 30 years ago. As much as Dominic despises him, he has shown to care for Red, as he respected his wishes in not letting his granddaughter know what happened to her mother.

The Invisible Hand

He met his granddaughter Elizabeth for the first time, though he didn't divulge his true identity to her. However he did share on how he knew her mother Katarina. After she left, Dom called Reddington to inform him of Elizabeth's visit, in the end he expressed his frustration on having seen his granddaughter for the first time in 30 years without informing her of who he is. Dominic also warned him to stop being evasive and tell her the truth about what he did, to which he hung up on him.
