Malkariss

Not much is known of Malkariss. He founded an underground kingdom, built by slaves delivered to him by the likes of Slagar the Cruel. Represented by a large marble statue of a polecat, he spoke only to his head rat Nadaz to relate his orders to others under his rule.

After Matthias fell off the ledge where the statue dwelt during his fight with the Wearet, he discovered Malkariss in his true form: a polecat, but not at all like the imposing statue. In reality, Malkariss was old, weak, and hideous. Malkariss tried to attack Matthias, but a small group of his own slaves, whose guards had left them alone when they left to go fight the intruders, stoned him to death.
