  • Alexander Yaroslavich Rurickovich, nick name Nevsky
    Born in Pereslavl-Zalessky, Alexander was the second son of Prince Yaroslav Vsevolodovich and seemed to have no chance of claiming the throne of Vladimir. In 1236, however, he was summoned by the Novgorodians to become prince of Novgorod and, as their military leader, to defend their northwest lands from Swedish and German invaders After the Swedish army had landed at the confluence of the rivers Izhora and Neva, Alexander and his small army made a surprise attack at dawn on 15 July 1240 and defeated them. The Neva battle of 1240 saved Russia from a full-scale invasion from the North. Because of this battle, 18-year-old Alexander was given the nick name "Nevsky" (which means "of the Neva"). This victory, coming just three years after the disastrous Mongol invasion of Russia, strengthened Nevsky's political influence with the common people, but at the same time it worsened his relations with the boyars (the nobility). Soon they would fire him and send him home.
    After Novgorod's vassal city of Pskov had been captureded by the crusading Livonian Order, the Novgorod authorities sent for Alexander and begged him to come back and defend them. In spring of 1241 he returned from his exile, gathered an army, and drove out the invaders. Alexander and his men faced the Livonian heavy cavalry led by the grand master of the Order, Hermann, brother of Albert of Buxhoeveden. Nevsky faced the enemy on the ice of Lake Peipus and defeated the Livonian branch of the Teutonic Knights during the Battle of the Ice on 5 April 1242.
    Alexander's victory at Lake Peipus was a significant event in the military history of the Middle Ages. The Novgorod militia armed with pikes swords maces axes and chain mail armor had surrounded and defeated an army of knights, mounted on horseback and clad in thick plate and mail armor.
    Alexander was proclaimed Grand Duke of Vladimir by the Khan of the Golden Horde in 1252.
    Alexander's victory was also an important early step in the founding and development of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, in his will he gave the tiny principality of Moscow (500 square miles) to his son Daniel the first prince of Moscow.
    Proclaimed a Saint of the Orthodox Church by Metropolitan Macarius in 1547

    I hope it's just my imagination and the armored mask is based on a contemporary replica.
