Rasputin is a Warmind from Russia. He was created during the Collapse[1] and was believed to have been destroyed during the event. The Fallen and Guardians have discovered he is still alive, and protecting something valuable in the Cosmodrome. After the last array station was reactivated by the Guardians, Rasputin was able to connect across the system, including launching a series of orbital strikes against the Vex and Cabal on Mars.[2] Rasputin is later encountered within the Dust Palace, attempting to protect a broken warmind from the invading Cabal, but ultimately loses it to the Psion Flayers.[3]
Rasputin can be found inside Bunker RAS-2, and originally occupied the Skyshock station. The Hive attempted to locate and attack Rasputin, either to kill it or corrupt it for their own purposes.[4]
