I'm fairly sure Rasputin was not a lich. Nor did he have a bat sidekick. Also, Anastasia was very, very dead a little while after the Revolution. Which Rasputin did not cause, I will add. He might have discredited the royal family slightly, but Lenin already had the Tsar's death in mind before that. Only, you know, not. I’m fairly sure Rasputin was not a lich.

The Slavic root/word “stare-” means old.
Starets means old man.
If you’ve read or seen A Clockwork Orange this is why Alex refers to old people as “starry” in Nadsat.
