Tomislav Vlahović



"Oh no, it's Tomislav Vlahović! He's the leader of the Belkan Grey Men! He's not General Joey Richmond, the new Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Alliance with a set of radical elitist ideas! I think he just got this name from a dogtag that he got from one of Nathan Bradford's protégé and friend who was serving as a pure-hearted egalitarian who sacrificed himself by jumping out of his apartment window while he's off-duty for weeks. He's also responsible for the creation of anti-Rubyism, making him more evil than Supreme Leader Victor Nevarez himself."

--Su Ji-Hoon, How I Can Help Make the World Great (chapter)

General Tomislav Vlahović (also known as General Joey Richmond) is a new character introduced in When the Cold Breeze Blows Away.

Considered to be the true perpetrator of the USRAC War and the one who cursed-like framed Ruby Rose and her team for cause USRAC War and the entire Anti-Rubyist events, he is known for being a grand terrorist-like general who led the Belkan Grey Men albeit he formed an alliance with the Global Liberation Union.

Much like Torvivum Zuskelgar, his spirit possess Amattaken Rahaim after his death.

Unlike Victor Nevarez and Torvivum Zuskelgar, Vlahović is a pure evil villain.

He is around 36 years old, has orange eyes, black hair, and wears a customized gray-colored uniform.

Early Life
He was born in Novi Sad, Serbia in November 12th, 1989 when his nation was part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia with a troubled childhood since her mother was abusive (whereas his father is caring).

He was 9 years old when NATO and Kosovo Liberation Army aircraft and navalcraft destroyed his homeland (notably in the Serbian city of Novi Sad where he lived), which killed several thousand Yugoslavs, including his parents.

He was soon raised for the rest of his childhood days, and even in his entire teenage years, by the Serbian Army.

Circum-Pacific War
An immigrant from Serbia who moved to the major industrialized nation of Belka, Tomislav has been linked to countless brutal terrorist attacks across the entire Bastok Peninsula, as he regards the wasteful, materialistic splendor of its upper class denizens as an affront against the heavens. Worse yet, the rulers have sold themselves out to the interest of the Grand Alliance, degrading themselves and their proud people to mere puppets of Western imperialism.

As a result, Tomislav and his "Grey Men"; a faction of hard-line Belkan supremacists that arose sometime in the late 20th century, were among the first groups that sided with Shan Yu's original Global Liberation Union in the early 2020s, injecting it with a massive boost of fanatical followers and fundamentalist zeal. Even today, after the demise of Shan Yu and the purges of his successor Amattaken Rahaim, the Grey Men remains as the GLU's most hardline faction, which frequently puts them at odds with the - if only by virtue of comparison - more level-headed proto-nationalists headed by Romuald Mubarak and the violent anti-corporatists represented by Zuhair al-Khalid.

As Joey Richmond
"Of power, I could tell you much. One must seize the moment, and strike."

--Tomislav Vlahović (as Joey Richmond) to the fellow Grey Men members

He changed his identity as "Joey Richmond," a patriotic US citizen and a charismatic Coalition sympathizer (including a "perfect" childhood) with many of the rich people, parents who leave their children for a night, and even students, teachers and parents of all over the multiverse as his loyal supporters via brainwashing and/or manipulative measures in a very legal way as he was about to be appointed as the new commander-in-chief in the How I Can Help Make the World Great ceremony after his cousin's resignation while he was appointing his brother to be the new leader of the Grey Men.

Revealing His True Identity and Death
However, during his final encouter with Task Force Vendetta, Tomislav shouts at Captain Derek "Frost" Westbrook by his nickname while trying to shoot him with his pistol, but his true identity is revealed when Derek shouted at him by his real surname shortly before finally killing Vlahović via multiple shots to the chest.

Information regarding the fate of the Grey Men and whether or not they faced intercontinental prosecution for their war crimes is unknown, but with their leader dead, the Grey Men are effectively put in a state of disarray and are officially designated as war criminals by the Joint Police Agency.
