Rasputin

Creation

Rasputin IV was created by Jonathan Hickman and R. B. Silva in Powers of X #1 – The Last Dream of Professor X as part of the Dawn of X relaunch. Rasputin is a mutant “chimera” from the future, cloned from the DNA samples of Colossus, Shadowcat, Kid Omega, Unus the Untouchable and X-23.

Powers and Abilities

Chimera Mutant Physiology

  • Rasputin is a chimera mutant and possesses a wide array of powers including:
    • Organic Metal Skin
    • Intangibility
    • Force Field
    • Superhuman Strength
    • Telepathy
    • Healing Factor
  • Rasputin can also manifest a fiery version of the Soulsword.

Her strength level is most likely similar to her father’s, placing her around 70-tons in lifting power. She would also most likely share his weaknesses.

Weaknesses

Colossus’ metal skin is vulnerable to the anti-metal Vibranium, as evidenced when Xraven stabbed his arm with a Vibranium blade which instinctively turned him back into his normal form.

Colossus can be damaged when attacked by something made from or bonded with Adamantium (e.g. Wolverine’s Adamantium-bonded claws).
