Azarism is the ideology of the Grand Sage Azar during his reign. It is an Authoritarian, religious, and technocratic ideology well known for colluding with the FatuiTheo.png Fatui, banning sabzeruz festivals, and being the most hated in the Genshin fandom trapping Kusanali. Azarism's rule on Sumeru ended after a huge coup by traveler, Cyno, Dehya, Rahman, Nooc.png Alhaitham, Nilou, Isak, and many Eremites ending his reign.

Characteristics

Azarism is characterized as a very autocratic and corrupt rule having been able to garner enough power to imprison even other sages against him. Azarism also cooperates with a lot of Fatui especially Il Dottore on high levels of government and make deals with the Fatui to fulfill plans to replace Kusanali with another god. Azarism trapped Kusanali in a prison to prevent Kusanali from ever escaping. Azarism is highly authoritarian having banned festivals and plans that go against the idea of research and pursuing knowledge even banning art and dance. Azarism also likes to mess with the Akasha System and use it to control people's minds to the point where the Corps of Thirty can be pretty much used as his mindless puppets at his whim, at one point it put everyone into a forever dream known as the Samsara where the Sabzeruz festival was replayed over and over again until Nilou unknowingly behing the host of the dream was able to free everyone from the Samsara. Azarism doesn't take Eremites that kindly and has pretty much made the condition of the Eremites land worse than before and used the wall as somewhat of an apartheid to keep the eremites in the desert from the Akademiya. Nevertheless Azarism sometimes likes to use Eremites and spread propaganda about King Deshret's return prompting a new ideology of Neo-Scarlet Monarchism.

Personality

Azarism is overly prideful and narcissist to the point he sees everyone as fools. Azarism is hard to talk to as he won't listen to anyone who isn't near his level of merit and will despise them for their alleged foolishness to them because to him everyone else is dumb and stupid and doesn't know any better than him. Azarism always likes to act wise and smart using very complex sentences and wording when he speaks. Azarism despises Eremites the most although he sometimes likes to use them as tools for his plots. Azarism cares very little about people and is very corrupt loving to plot in secrecy in order to create a new god like putting everyone in a dream and harvesting their dreams so much that Dunyarzad almost died if it wasn't for Kusanali. Azarism also hates anything that he deems as foolish and will ban them instantly including arts and dances. He seems to get very angry about any mention about Kusanali and will try to shut down anything related to Kusanali.
