- "Sara Lance. I am Mallus! Soon, I will be free and your world will know unendurable pain!"
- —Mallus to Sara Lance[src]
Mallus is a mysterious entity that both exists, rises and dies throughout time.
Biography
According to Rip Hunter, Mallus was perceived as a myth, existing throughout all of time, and known by many different names in all types of languages. Rip also states that the Time Masters, were too frightened to even speak his name. [1]
Agent Ava Sharpe mentioned Mallus became a threat after the Legends "broke" time.[2] After Kuasa was resurrected by Nora Darhk, a servant of Mallus, she told her that Mallus requested her services.[3] Mallus was hunted throughout time by Rip Hunter for years. Mallus later ordered Nora to travel to London 1895 and resurrect Damien Darhk. During the ceremony, Rip Hunter interrupted them and demanded to Nora to speak with Mallus. Without hesitation, Nora agreed and within seconds, Mallus took possession of her body and stated to Rip that it was a pleasure to meet him. Rip then demanded to see his true form, Mallus wickedly laughed and said that he wouldn't live when he saw his true form and claimed that while Rip was mortal, he was a god. Just before Damien was resurrected, Mallus stopped possessing Eleanor.[1]
Mallus was not seen or heard from again for a while until the Legends once more crossed paths with the Darhks in the year 1000 A.D. while endeavoring to rescue a younger Martin Stein from Vikings and preventing the US from becoming New Valhalla. During a pitched battle between the two sides, Damien came rushing to his daugher's aid, using his glowing orb to transport them away. As they did so, White Canary grabbed on to Darhk and was transported suddenly to a dark, desolate place, the very dimension in which Mallus was imprisoned. Mallus called out to her from the darkness, never revealing his face or true form. Declaring his name when asked who he was, Mallus swore that he would soon be free and that the entire world would soon be subjected to unendurable pain. Canary could only look on in stunned terror as a huge, black hand reached out towards her from out of nowhere as ghoulish laughter echoed all around, before she was yanked back into her own world by Agent Sharpe through a portal hovering nearby.[4]
Personality
Though he currently hasn't appeared in physical form yet, whilst possessing Nora, Mallus as he shown to be a sinister individual whose existence even scared the Time Masters. Mallus also possesses an air of supreme arrogance, referring to Rip Hunter as "hopelessly mortal", compared to his presumed status as a god. When Sara Lance accidentally entered the very dimension he was imprisoned in, he vowed to her that once he is freed from his prison, he will make her entire world know unendurable pain.
Powers and abilities
Powers
Nora Darhk channeling Mallus' powers.

Abilities
- Intimidation: Rip states that the Time Masters, were too frightened to even speak his name. Mallus was able to strike fear into the highly courageous and dangerous assassin Sara Lance, when she heard his voice in the very dark dimension he was imprisoned in.

Trivia
- Mallus' influence on the timeline has been so far identified as random aberrations in history; when Nate Heywood conducted a scan of the timeline, he determined that a series of aberrations were directly linked to the fracturing of history caused by the final defeat of the Legion of Doom, but Mallus' aberrations broke this pattern.
- Ray Palmer and Nate have noted that these divergent aberrations have all had some connection to the Legends' own personal histories; his first role in an aberration was linked to Ray Palmer's younger self, another involved Sir Henry Stein (Martin Stein's great-granduncle), and a later aberration targeted the younger Stein, while one aberration was peripherally linked to Mick Rory's father.
- Mallus' claim that he would soon be free, indicates that he is currently imprisoned in the realm White Canary discovered him, solving the question as to why he must communicate with his followers through Nora Darhk.
