Gravis

Gravis is a Johanian criminal, philosopher, wanted felon, self-declared honorary Ninjagoan and Elemental Ninja with power of Gravity, and the leader of various VaushAgoist organizations such as the Vaush Ninjagoist Party and its dominant Gravisist branch as well as serving as the dictator of the VaushAgoist Autonomous Municipalities.
He was a controversial figure in both the former Johanian Republic and the Empire of Ninjago due to his support for VaushAgoism, a combination of Vaushism and Ninjagoism. Gravis rose to fame when he became leader of a radical branch of the VaushAgo International. However, due to their criminal activites, such as threatening stores and shops to adopt VaushAgoist ideas, the newly formed party and branch were designated as a criminal organization and thus could not participate in elections. Gravis later gained influence over the International's leader Ash, who declared Gravis' ideas to be the purest form of VaushAgoism.
== Early life ==
Gravis was born in Al-Dualifin, Arabia, which later became part of the Johanian Republic. His parents origin is unknown, however, he himself alledges that his mother was an ethnic Ninjagoan from the Caucasus colony and had a white father who came from Arabia, who were both involved in moisture farming. During his youth, Gravis read a lot about Johanian history and philosophy as his country had been annexed as the state of Johani Arabia when he was 12 years old. Since Johani Arabia was close to the Ninjago border, this peaked his interest in Ninjagoan culture as well. 
== Involvement in politics ==
Gravis later moved to Odessa in order to study. There, Gravis became familiar with various left-wing organizations and ended up joining the youth-wing of the Johanian Socialist Party. Where he became somewhat acquainted with famous fellow party member Clutch Powers. It was during his early adult life when Gravis traveled to Johanian Taipei with the mission to spread left-wing ideas there, due to the recent influx of conservatism and nationalism in the region. Gravis arrived in Kuanzhou on the state's coast region due to the illegal Taipei blockade. When investigating the rural areas to speak with the population there, Gravis accidentally crossed the border to Ninjago. This was due to the fact that there were no border walls present in that area. He was then arrested for trespassing and disappeared for the next three months. During this time, a campaign was launched in order to free Gravis from Ninjagoan death camp labor.
For unknown reasons, Gravis reappeared in the Siberian colony. He claimed that he managed to escape from the Arvidland Summer camp and made his way back to Johania. Gravis writes in his manifesto كباب نووي: The VaushAgoist International about how he was forced to recite Watashi no Tatakai during his imprisonment. He became fascinated with the ideas expressed by Emperor Kareastikuru and was thus persuaded to learn more about Ninjagoism. This all lead Gravis to join the Ninjago Sympathy Party and thus begin a political career. Political scholars often point to these events as being the culmination of Gravis' political radicalization. Gnome Chomkse writes that "Gravis was indeed a dedicated socialist, but he was notably more engaged than his fellow youth-wing members. Some have suggested that his political radicalization began during this time. He was, after all, the only party member that traveled to Taipei with that kind of mission. Gravis' exposure to the Ninjagoist ideas was probably the final push he sought after."
Gravis later moved back to Johani Arabia, where he would establish the southern headquarters for the VaushAgo International in his hometown of Al-Dualifin. It was proven to be difficult for Gravis and his followers to advocate for their ideas close to the capital, therefore, they focused on regions such as Johani Arabia, Siberia and the eastern parts of the former Vaushist State.
=== Rise to infamy ===
Following Gravis' establishment of a southern headquarters of the VaushAgo International in Al-Dualifin, his followers began to recruit others for the VaushAgo cause. Mainly recruiting in rural areas, which they believed would be easier to radicalize. Gravis and his followers later officially established a branch in the VaushAgo International following the publication of Gravis' manifesto; كباب نووي: The VaushAgoist International, in which Gravis lays out his worldview and how he believes the VaushAgoist International can realize the Gravisist version of the Post-VaushAgoist Utopia. 
Initially, Gravis was viewed as a "madman" by most members of the International, including its prominent leaders who criticized his beliefs for holding no basis in reality and its seemingly incoherent critique of capitalism and advocacy for nuclear war. However, Gravisists continued their recruitment efforts, which controversly involved threatening store owners with TNT and make them convert to Gravisism. During the final days of ShitCraft IV, the Gravisist branch of the International had emassed enough members to be considered a dominant wing of the VaushAgo movement if not a dominant one in the Vaushist Ninjagoist Party. The Gravisists' criminal activities eventually resulted in Gravis' arrest and subsequent imprisonment in a maximum security jail in the Johanian Republic.
=== Rise to power ===
During the UN war, Gravis had once again been captured and imprisoned by the UN army. Following the United Nations' collapse, Gravis escaped and moved to the Myjohanian Union where he was still a wanted felon. Despite this, Gravis joined the VaushAgo Party, allegedly using a fabricated identification card and a pseudonym, and urged his followers to infiltrate the party ranks. The Death of Kareastikuru made Gravis announced his coup d'état which resulted in the Gravisist takeover of the VaushAgo Party and the establishment of the VaushAgoist Autonomous Municipalities in the Levant with Gravis as its dictator.
== Beliefs ==
Gravis' beliefs are often collectively known as Marxism-Kropotkism-Chomskism-Vaushism-Kareastikuruism-Gravisism or simply Gravisism. Due to his vast amounts of differing beliefs to pure VaushAgoism and his controversial worldview, Gravisism is considered to be a deviating branch of VaushAgoism. Although Gravis himself considers his beliefs to be merely VaushAgoist. Both Gravisism and VaushAgoism are generally categorized as being far-right or syncretic.
===Gravisism===
Gravisism is a branch of VaushAgoism, as it adopts Vaushist ideas such as an opposition to capitalism and states and Ninjagoist ideas such as scientific racism and a belief in a "master race". Although in Gravisism there are three different "master races", the Johanians, Ninjagoans and the "intelligent dolphin population". Like other VaushAgoists, Johanians are viewed as a "race of people" who possesses the esoteric "Johanian Spirit". Additionally, Gravisism derives from the Ninjagoan religious beliefs, albeit with changed terminology and a strong belief in extraterresial beings.
Gravis wrote in his manifesto كباب نووي: The VaushAgoist International, expressions of opposition towards capitalism, regarding it as having a Non-Johanian origin and accusing capitalism of holding nations ransom to the interests of a parasitic cosmopolitan rentier class. He also expressed opposition to communism and egalitarian forms of socialism, arguing that inequality and hierarchy are beneficial to the community. He believed that communism was invented by the Non-Ninjagoans to weaken nations by promoting class struggle. After his rise in the party ranks, Gravis took an idealistic position on economics, burning down private property and placing bombs in capitalist private enterprises, usually forcing business men to convert to the VaushAgo cause.
The support for a nuclear war or radioactive end crystal bomb warfare is widely advocated by Gravis. He wished for the Johanian Republic and the Empire of Ninjago to go to war in order to realize the Gravisist Utopia. Other means, such as both the Complete Removal of Crimea and the Complete Removal of Ninjago Island are also supported due to the potential power vaccuum it could create. The post-VaushAgoist utopia would be able to achieve space travel, according to Gravis. The aliens of the universe would help the VaushAgoist cause, using advanced futuristic nuclear technology to achieve global VaushAgoism. They also believe that after a nuclear war, the radiation will push dolphins to evolve into a new race which will be able to walk up on earth, joining the Johanians and Ninjagoans as a third master race.
== Personal life ==
Gravis resides in the VaushAgoist Autonomous Municipalities and as a former citizen of the Johanian Republic, has the right to Myjohanian citizenship under Myjohanian nationality law. Although, Gravis' naturalization process was halted following his rebellion in the Levant.
=== Psychological evaluation ===
In all of Gravis many times in prison he underwent psychological analysis. The results showcased that Gravis might be dealing with some type of psychosis where major symptoms might indicate schizophrenia. The major concerns are Gravis materialization of Mr. Pale and communication with aliens and dolphins. While these three, as well as some other illusions of Gravis are reoccurring trends, each time in prison have yielded different test results. Some doctors are convinced Gravis is dealing with schizophrenia and have a secondary mental illness-fluidity, while others believe Gravis' illusions might be completely fabricated and he is actually completely mentally sane, however, very politically motivated.
