Summary
Colossus is a primary protagonist from the Marvel vs. Capcom series. Once a gentle and young farmer from Russia named Piotr Rasputin, who aspires to be a painter, he joined the X-Men in order to aid mutant and humankind against those that would threaten them. He is a mutant with an ability to transform his flesh into an organic steel body which allows him to perform superhuman feats. However, some time following Magneto's defeat, he left the X-Men in favour of joining his Acolytes.
At some point, he was recruited by Ruby Heart to aid in the battle against Abyss alongside many other Marvel and Capcom heroes and villains, having apparently joined back to the X-Men.
