Malam Malevolent - Tumblr Posts
Malam ramble cause I have a few disconnected thoughts
Whatever Malam’s deal is, it is very interesting that we got such a detailed description on his appearance. Most characters get very little physical details, except maybe anything that particularly stands out. But Malam we got so many details: scars, skin, hair, eyes, HANDS.
That can’t be for nothing
ALSO I really like the idea that this is John and Arthur in one person. Maybe they were offered a deal, they share in the body but in a WAY deeper way (even tho Malam doesn’t look like Arthur, John would have mentioned that).
Matching scars, features distinguishing his hands from eachother, a similar tone to John’s. But also, heterochromia, something thought to represent the balance of opposing forces.
And of course “OUR day of wrath”. I keep thinking about day of wrath being called their “combined force” and then I look at Malam and see their features smushed and alarm bells go off.
I’m very curious who or what Malam is, but he has to many elements linked to the story to not be important
Back from the tomb they imprisoned me in to offer you my humble Malam design which totally makes sense
