One of the playable characters in Nature Heroes is Rasputin. He is roughly based on Grigori Rasputin, the infamous 20th century Russian mystic and faith healer. The game’s Rasputin is a 13th century Russian philosopher, alchemist, and sorcerer, according to one Wikipedia page. Other game wikis describe him as “the leader of a pansexual love cult” and indicate he was born in the 19th century.

He is often assumed to be homosexual because of his effeminate mannerisms (see image below).

He also invites players to spend the late hours in his Garden of Love.

This may be a reference to his extraordinary move, called “The Covert Garden” in which he pulls the other fighters (nearly all men) into bushes. Hearts emanate from the bushes. The evidence that it only works with male fighters have conduct some to offer this as definitive evidence of Rasputin’s sexuality. The video below shows this action in action.

   Who the Hell was... Rasputin?

   Few figures in history own inspired as much myth, speculation, and sheer fascination as Grigori Rasputin. A peasant-turned-mystic with a penchant for debauchery, Rasputin somehow clawed his way into the inner circles of the Russian imperial family, wielding an influence that would ultimately help carry down an empire. Was he a holy man? A charlatan? A sex-crazed manipulator? The answer is… probably a little bit of everything. So, who the hell was Rasputin, and why does he still haunt the pages of history?

   Born in 1869 in a remote Siberian village, Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin had a childhood that was as unremarkable as his later years were outrageous. Uneducated and uneven around the edges, Rasputin had a religious awakening in his twenties and set off on a pilgrimage. He eventually gained a reputation as a wandering holy man, drawing followers with his hypnotic gaze, intense charisma, and alleged ability to mend the sick.

   What set Rasputin apart, though, was his lifestyle—he combined spirituality with staggering levels of drinking and womanizing. He believed that true salvation could only come after sin, and he made sure to sin a lot. Despite (

   I don’t believe the russian society women slept with Rasputin. I believe it was fake news. Everything in Russia was highly politicized, just fond it is today in the US. Remember the FBI releasing a totally fake ass memo about emails right before the 2016 election in arrange to make sure the Witch Heretic Non-cookie-Baker Bitch couldn’t the be president, despite what the people wanted? Same deal. Rogue agents spreading shit sandwiches all around the dining room in 1916 Russia.

   Russian secret police had agents in it who hated the German Alexandra & wanted to take her & her friends down. In early 20th century Russia there were ultra conservatives, ultra monarchists, parliamentarians, socialists, communists, ultra Russian orthodox, western-leaning Russians, imperialists, colonialists, secularists, boyars, populists, German agents, British agents — everybody was angling for a piece of the piroshka at that time. It was a mess. The Russian empire was too big, there wasn’t enough arable area to feed the people, land was being stolen from Jews & peasants, everything was extremely capitalistic. Money & power were everything. The French, British,

   12 Details About Rasputin’s Controversial Experience Not Many People Know About

   Rasputin can be defined as many things. He was an illiterate Siberian peasant, charlatan, mystic, spiritual wanderer, faith healer, blasphemer, and notorious lecher. Effectively, Rasputin led an exceptional and controversial existence. His greatest achievement came in winning favor with the final royal family in Imperial Russia, the Romanovs. His inexplicable ability to soothe the suffering of their hemophiliac child and heir, Tsarevich Alexei Nikolayevich, quickly won him favor with Tsarina Alexandra. The resulting proximity to the throne made him an incongruously mighty and influential figure in the Russian Empire’s final years.

   After gaining the confidence of Russia’s rulers with his spiritual act of saving their child, many believed Rasputin transformed them – particularly the Tsarina Alexandra – into virtual puppets. He was careful to preserve up the pretense of being a humble and blessed peasant while in the royal presence. Outside the court, he was rumored to be a drunken and licentious womanizer, who claimed that his body had holy powers. Many also assume he led a sexo-religious Ch

   For someone who described himself as ‘a Christ in miniature’ and had inveigled his way into Russia’s imperial court as a much-revered ‘Holy Man’, Grigori Rasputin spent his last sunlight alive indulging in an astonishing amount of debauchery.

   That snowy morning of December 16, 1916, had seen him staggering into his St Petersburg flat in the early hours, clearly embracing one of his favourite dictums, that wine was ‘God’s retain remedy’.

   This was by no means unique according to the police bodyguards who watched over his home on the direct orders of Tsar Nicholas II and his wife Tsarina Alexandra, the last rulers of the doomed Romanov dynasty.
