“ | What? What is happening? | ” |
–X_Grave_X said when he saw Joe the Pufferfish, Annoying Villagers 64 |
X_Grave_X, better recognized by his nickname Grave, is one of the main anti-heroes of the Annoying Villagers series. Given his position as the leader and founder of The Resistance, the largest player clan/tribe in Minecraft, he is more commonly referred to as The leader of the Resistance amongst the Villagers. He is recognized to be a Player of an extremely high skill level, viewed amongst the factions as a very large threat.
Appearance
Grave is a normal human defined by a tan skin tone, black hair, and black eyes. He is consistently seen wearing a light emerald enchanted chestplate and two diamond blades strapped against his back after he wielded his two long diamond swords. He bears metal bracelets on his wrists and some metal attachments on his legs. Underneath his armor, Grave has green clothes. On his earlier days, Grave wears iron chestplate instead of an enchanted light emerald chestplate. Before he consistently wore a scabbard and wielded his four diamond blades (two on his scabbard and two wielded on his hands), he used to wield two long diamond swords.
Personality
“ | If you can't understand each other... Why bother? You can just fight. Let whoever has the most might be the one who is right! For we live in a world where the strongest, they get to set all the rules. | ” |
–X_Grave_X addressing Blue, HERO7655, and Arslan S., Annoying Villagers 51 |
Grave is introduced as an antagonist who is characterized to be ruthless, intimidating, and cocky, fuelled by his unbreakable goal to eradicate the Villagers. From the very beginning, Grave idealized simply fighting as the sole option to solve issues instead of trying to understand others; The strong rule over the weak and set the rules. This was Grave's direct line of thinking, in the sense of which he displays absolute no mercy whatsoever towards anyone and relishes violence. Grave intitally stated that he couldn't care less about playing politics (referring to his clan speeches) and that him and his team will win by "beating the game".
At times during a fight, Grave can be very arrogant, mocking his opponents when asserting his dominance over them and acting overconfident, as shown when deciding to attack Steve (in which he has a major grudge against) for the first time and Forest Herobrine, despite them both initially displaying superiority. Regardless, Grave is always a very strategic and tactical fighter. This is seen by Grave using multiple different techniques, such as trialling to see if placing a block would stop Forest Herobrine's obsidian blocks and distracting Chris and WillieBear123 so DaRealBingoBear has time to prepare the TNT Cannons.
Grave takes his position as the leader of his clan very seriously, always taking pride in his clan and valuing his comrades highly. When he boasted to Herobrine Keaton-Mask and Herobrine ChangShen PN that his clan would "beat the game", he corrected himself by saying his team will beat the game. In addition to this, Grave strives to prove himself as a worthy leader to his comrades, remembering how he failed to beat Steve in front of TheMostMoistBurrit0 and BingoBear, thus wanting to redeem himself in front of BingoBear and My Moustacheo when facing Steve for the second time. As such, he displays multiple qualities/traits one would expect a natural leader to have, such as showing confidence, taking responsibility for failure, managing his leadership impression on his comrades, being people-orientated, a motivational speaker, assertiveness in commands and instructions, etc.
Although Grave acts savagely and aims to be the biggest "monster"/"demon" of all, when questioned why he formed The Resistance Player tribe in first place by his best friend Burrito, he answered that it was because he didn't want others to suffer like how he did. This implies that Grave wanted to become the strongest and fight to win with his comrades in order to ensure that no Player has to ever suffer like he did. By doing so, his end goal is for Minecraft to be brought back to it's "natural state", in which Players can do whatever they like with Minecraft.
