  • Your ghost tells you in the game... an ancient super A.I. (think Cortanna x10,000) known as a warmind. One of several created during the golden age to help fight off the darkness and the invading aliens.

  • I think it has something to do with Russian Pressident Putin and Ra's from Stargate.

      It is my Tinfoil Hat opinion that Rasputin created The Vex. Somehow.

    • Rasputin is an AI (purportedly the only surviving one) Warmind that ran defense systems and somehow survived the Collapse. He appears in the 3rd and fourth story missions early on, where you discover him, and he takes over the Array you activate. He has no apparent role on the Moon or Venus (some speculation is that he's who the Exo Stranger is talking to). Comes up again on Mars in the Dust Palace, where you break into the AI Research centre, but Rasputin has again seized control and locked you out. The final mention is in the Dust Palace strike, when the Kabal send the Psion Flayers in to try and get Rasputin and/or whatever he's guarding, but Guardians come along and interrupt the process and kill the Flayers. He is apparently at the least, antagonistic to Guardians, clearly not in co-operation with the Traveller/Speaker. But also not working with the Fallen or Kabal (both of whom are attacking him in different missions)

        If I am correct, Rasputin is a Warmind (AI) designed by humanity either before (Golden Age) or during their collapse. One theory is that there were actually seven Warminds, known better as the Seven Seraphs. Another theory is that Rasputin betrayed humanity, using the darkness as a catalyst to his own deeds.

      • A Russian healer and monk. A warmind has also been named after him.

      • I assume you didn't pay too much attention to the earth missions. Rasputin is first talked about during the fourth earth mission "the Warmind" [spoiler]Rasputin is a Warmind, an AI designed to defend humanity during the collapse. It is believed that all the Warminds have been destroyed but we learn in "The Warmind" mission that Rasputin miraculously survived [/spoiler]

            Rasputin, the Last Warmind, an extremely complex AI designed during either the Golden Age, or shortly before the Collapse to help beat back the Darkness. As of now, Rasputin is just about everywhere, from earth, to the moon, to Mars, doing his duty to keep everything that he considers to be a threat out of what he considers important and strategic points, areas, and systems. Other than that, there really isn't much know about him or what exactly he is other than an extremely advanced Golden Age era AI.

              • Rasputin is the Warmind. AKA an AI from before the Collapse who was created to control probably the satellites, computers, nukes etc.
