[edit] Trivia

  • He is based on Gregori Rasputin. But different from him, this character is considerated in the good side. Maybe could be based in Rasputin's daughter memories, whe she states his father as a saint man.
  • Rasputin is considerated as the joke character of the series, as most of his moves and poses are over the top, similar to Street Fighter's character, Dan Hibiki.
  • Rasputin is one of the first characters in video games who can able to manipulate fire and ice to the same time, having a ball of each power. Probably Rasputin could be one of precursors of characters like Gill from Street Fighter series.
  • By some of his manners and poses, Rasputin could be a gay character. Confirming this fact, in ADK World (an ADK game, exclusive for Neo Geo CD), stated that Kisarah Westfield is Rasputin's rival in love. Also, one of his taunts involves his robes being blown up by wind from underneath with Rasputin trying to cover himself up- an obvious mimicry of the famous Marylin Monroe photo.
