Rasputina

Rasputina is an example of the meteoric rise one can achieve when exposed to the opportunities 0. To be Organised/Malifaux provides. She was brought to this City, like thousands of others, as convict labour. Her sentence was purchased by the Guild, and she was deferred from incarceration to serve in the salon houses of 0. To be Organised/Malifaux, instead. Difficult to tame, Rasputina was placed into a chain gang where she laboured at breaking rocks in an attempt to break her spirit.

How she became associated with the entity known as December has not been determined, but through some pact, she was granted dramatic control over the weather of this world. A swirling storm of snow and sleet now answer her fury. The power of winter serves her whim, even enabling her escape from Guild custody.

On her own and on the run, she found herself at the welcoming hearth of the Arcanists. These sorcerers, through their close association with the Miners and Steamfitters Union, have easy access to valuable Soulstone. In exchange for these sources of power, Rasputina lends her skills to the Arcanist cause.

Though Rasputina is formally associated with the Arcanists, her independence and quest for power drive her actions. She possesses knowledge of 0. To be Organised/Malifaux and this world that few people will ever demonstrate; she even commands the obedience of a mysterious tribe of feral men living in the nearby mountains.
