    Probably Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak. Russian Admiral and member of the Russian White Movement during the Russian civil war.

    Well, his executed body was thrown into a frozen river in Irkutsk, so don't expect much... Despite being a pretty brutal rebel, he's now venerated by Russian ultra-conservatives and even had his own propaganda film and island in the Arctic Ocean. Brewster has the ground!

    There's a Russian or a German movie about him. Following his career. I thought it was pretty enjoyable to watch.

    Blows my mind that Brewster guessed that was Haraldra haha. Man, they couldn't draw faces back then could they?

    That's the guy who founded Nintendo right? Fusajiro Yamauchi

    I think Brewster just posted a link of the young man he was looking to abduct.
