Rasputin was a staret (or a holy man) with healing and prophetic powers. When tsar Nicholas II was in power he needed a male successor, so after four girls, Alexandra (Nicholas's wife) gave birth to Alexei. Alexei had inherited the disease hemophilia from his grandmother Queen Victoria. This blood disease was untreatable and usually led to and untimely death. But Rasputin was able to help Alexei and was able to keep some of the pain away Actually, Rasputin was a 'strannik' (wandering spiritual pilgrim) and not a starets (a monk). He was widely known for his healing powers which are widely documented, as well as for his preaching abilities. He was said to give very inspirational sermons. He did help stem the tzarevitch Alexei's bleeding and pain, for which the Tsarina was grateful, and the Imperials also found it very comforting to talk to him as a sort of confessor. Much of the artistocracy was appalled at a peasant getting so close to the royal family and did everything they could to discredit him by spreading rumors of drunken behavior and womanizing. When that didn't work, they killed him, despite the fact that Rasputin never harmed a soul.
Rasputin did not cure anything. He was with the Russian Royal family to help the heir Alexi with his hemophilia, but he did not actually cure it. What he did was to help Alexi become calm which helped decreese the amoun of blood loss as well as other things associated with hemophilia.
Tsaritsa's son suffered from hemophilia and Rasputin claimed that he can cure him. She was very worried about her son and she did everything what Rasputin said, because she truly believed that only he can cure the tsetsarevich. Every time the Tsarina's suffered from a problem and no one else seemed to be able to aid him she would go to Rasputin. It is rumored that every time she called on Rasputin, the boy would miraculously recover.
Yes, sadly it did. Or rather, it was a contributing cause.The Royal Disease was Haemophilia, a disease carried by females but active in males. Queen Alexandra was of Queen Victoria's line. Her young son, Alexei, had Haemophilia. The slightest bump would cause agonising bleeding into his joints, and he was often very sick indeed.She was a desperate mother, prepared to try anything that would help her child. She is said to have felt guilty for passing the illness on to him. She was told about a monk, Gregori Rasputin, who was said to work miracles. She contacted him and he came and he helped the boy in ways that seemed miraculous, and which we cannot explain even today. He would be with the boy for hours and when Rasputin left the bedchamber exhausted and wrung out, Alexei's fever had broken and the pain and swelling were gone. Queen Alexandra became more and more dependent on Rasputin, and people resented it because he was a drunkard who lived a highly immoral lifestyle. She could not or would not give him up because he was the only person to do little Alexei any good. What mother could spurn the only source of pain relief her child had?The public were angry about Rasputin's influence. Tsar Nicolas lost popularity for allowing such a depraved man in the family circle. He had tried to persuade his wife to distance herself from Rasputin, but that only lasted until the child's next attack.Alexei's haemophilia was not the only factor in the loss of sympathy for the Russian Royal Family. It would be silly to suggest it was. But it was certainly an important contributary factor.
He was a monk that was brought to assist Tsar Nicholas II's son, Alexei. The son of the Tsar had hemophilia, and Rasputin was said to have mystical powers that could cure the young boy's disease. Before and after being appointed to his position, Rasputin was rumoured to having an elaborate sex life. He was reported to having held orgies, and pictures were often taken of him surrounded by many women. These actions however did not conflict with his religious beliefs, for his religion believed in fulfilling the desires of men. After being positioned to help Alexei, Rasputin gained political power as well. As the Tsar was away for assignments of WW1, the Tsarina was put in charge. She was greatly influenced by Rasputin due to his dedication to cure her son. Although the Tsarina was always announcing the political changes, Rasputin played a major part in the decision making process. This power that Rasputin was holding was well recognized by the Russian people, and in turn it became a cause of the 1917 February/ March Revolution. Many accusations were made against him from rape to being a German spy during WWI. In the end he was stabbed, poisoned, shot, beaten and drowned by assassins who found he was difficult to kill when he survived attack after attack. .

Grigori Rasputin. However, he was not evil like he was in the Animated movie, "Anastasia". In fact, he loved the Romanov family, and they all loved and resected him.
Czar Nicholas II and his wife Alexandra had a son Alexi who had hemophilia. Rasputin knew their former doctor and shortly after he was dismissed Rasputin took over and seemed to be able to help Alexi calm down during his attacks. After that he gained more and more power
No, Anastasia Romanov did not have any goals. All she wanted was to help her family, and keep her family safe.
Nicholas Romanov was the last tsar of Russia. He married Alexandra, a German princess this caused a lot of grief in the first world war. Together he had five children, Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastacia and finally a son, Alexei. Unfortunately Alexei had the deadly disease hemophyllia (dont know how to spell it) its where the blood doesnt clot to stop bleeding. Alexandra invested in the religious help of a Russian monk called rasputin, if you've seen fox's anastacia the name'll ring a bell. The Russians didnt like rasputin. Nicholas was said to have being ignoring the countries starving people etc he and his family were arrested and the throne was taken from nicholas. The close knit family was taken from palace to palace where finally they were taken to Siberia. On the night of 18th of July 1918 where they were taken to the basement after being told they were having their photographs taken to prove they were still alive. There they were shot dead, their bodies were covered in sulphic acid and dumped in mineshaft. Now all the bodies have been found and laid to rest at St petersburg cathedral, they were all made into saints. For a brief period of time there were rumours that the youngest romanov girl, Anastacia ha in fact survived. A woman named Anna Anderson claimed to be her but after Anna Anderson's death her DNA was taken and it was proved that she had been lying. In fact historians found that it was not in fact Anastacia's body that was missing it was Maria's.
Rasputin was the advisor of Tsarina Alexandra.Roman Catholic AnswerUnfortunately, the Tsarina Alexandra had no "saint" advisors. Rapsutin was indeed her advisor. He had briefly been a monk but left to lead a life of debauchery, and the best research in the field indicates that Rasputin was possessed by demons, and these was born out when they tried to kill him. According to Fr. Gabriele Amorth, who is Rome's chief exorcist, many of those possessed by demons have the power to heal, and other "magic" type powers, which they lose when they are properly exorcised. Because of his mystical powers, particularly his power to stop the Tsarina's son from bleeding (he had hemophilia) he was considered by many to be a saint back then. He was probably one of the biggest causes behind the fall of the Russian monarchy and take over by the Communists.

No. Rasputin was simply a corrupt and possibly insane man who was close the the Russian royal family in its final years. He knew some methods to help the Czar's son with his hemophilia, but there was no magic involved.
