MGS Gravnought is a large gravship under construction by Mondoworks. The 384 metre-long vessel was designed by Mondo Etzeterra and is based upon technical sketches originally prepared in the Kingdom of Lichbrook, incorporating grav-inversion rig technology researched by Shireroth's Project Mortis.

Work on a second gravnought was commissioned by the Benacian Union following the ratification of the Treaty of Fort Ermingander in 1716 AN.

Many details of the design remain unclear, but the MGS Gravnought has served on numerous occasions as a visible expression of the foreign policy interests of the Mondosphere.
