Rasputin

"Those who want power must never have it."

## Overview

### Appearance

Hmph. As if you couldn't already recognize a well off notable person as I. With my squared shoulders and white groomed hair.

### Personality

I always make sure that the important things are done. Even if it must get in the way of my scheduled appointments.

### Bonds

My estate is always in top condition. It must be so for my grandfather took care of it as his father before him.

### Flaws

At times you must sacrifice that which is good for that which might become.

## Combat

### Style

I like to throw many spells around, and never engage from the front.

### Specialties

I transmit spells into gliphys that allow me to activate them later.

## Appearance

Standing gruff in the entryway of the polished white manor stands a human with greasy white hair pulled back on his head.

His clothing has nobility written all over it. Trending for fancy the darker colors.

## Personality

Rasputin likes to appear as a rough, grumpy, snob, but he is rather curious about people. For idividuals he employs he will give them a guest house that is on his estate.

As a wizard, he studies new spells and ideas this is one reason he appears to have black hair, blue teeth, and crazy orange eyes.

He keeps his enimies far from his and friend at a distance.

## Background & Relationships

From when Rasputin was a young lad he always wanted to change things. He enrolled in Wenrovol's Arcane University in the field of Transmutation, but he wanted to change more than just materials.

After moving on and setting up his own site for magic experimentations. Years into his research he was approached by a strange fellow named Alcadeck. Alcadeck helped Rasputin with some research and Rasputin provided a place for Alcadeck to bring people who were part of an organization.

Rasputin became interested in this group called the Protectors and eventually joined in their cause.

He continued on with his studies and experiments. One day he had a spell backfire and caused his body to start to morph. He was about to undo the spell when he realized he looked younger, his hair was black, and when he smiled his teeth were a crazy blue and his eyes an electric orange. This was an interesting change and then it was gone. Over the next few weeks, he found this change in appearance would affect him on certain days for certain times. It was a complex equation to calculate the correct times but he eventually was able to pin it down to a T.

This alter ego Rasputin called Histi. And Histi was adept at going undercover as this form would also change his voice and spells wouldn't affect him.

Many years later Rasputin was found a traitor by King M, who had found evidence Alcadeck was working with him. Rasputin put up a good fight and in the end, was captured after he triggered a glyph that sealed his personal estate in a bubble that only those who he had employed could pass through. After being hauled to the dungeon in Rycath, Rasputin was able to escape with some allies in the form of Histi.

## Abilities & Skills

Rasputin is a well-accomplished wizard with abilities to alter things around him and enchant objects with spells for later use.

His ability to become Histi is unknown to everybody and is the main reason he is so distant from people. Rasputin doesn't want this secret to be figured out.

## Equipment

Tarrytown or as many call it Rasputin's Manor, is where Rasputin has settled down and started a little town. There Rasputin owns a large Manor house, 12 guest homes, and a teleportation circle.

## Misc.

Is there something else you want to include that doesn't fit in any other category? Knock yourself out! Add more stuff as you see fit.

* Rasputin in the book is portrayed always as Histi but goes by Rasputin, this is probably due to the fact that the backfired spell caused Rasputin to stop aging and the time spent looking like Histi increased to be his normal look.
* The name Rasputin is after the famous Russian man who was able to live when he should've died. This is reflected in Rasputin's strange ability to survive many strange and often dangerous spell inventions.
* He was named by a Jessica when trying to think of a name that would always sound like a bag guy.
