== Origins ==

The Malisik was the name given to those Spirits in the [[Pre-Mortal Existence (~~Lethurèa~~)|Pre-Mortal Existence]] that sided with [[Malis]] and warred with the other spirit tribes in the [[True First War (~~Lethurèa~~)|True First War]]. They first truly emerged following the imprisonment of [[Malis]] in the black prison-plane of [[Gozog'nok]]. His spiritual essence seeped from its lower strata, corrupting any spirits within [[Gozog'nok]]. These twisted spirits became the first Malisik.

When the fallen [[Sherok Warlord]] [[~~Malismorai~~|~~Morai~~]] and his other [[Sherok Warlord|Sherok Warlords]] entered [[Gozog'nok|Gozog'nok]] and were transformed by [[Malis]], he was assigned by [[Malis]] to create an army greater than even the [[Sebuuk]]. [[~~Malismorai~~]] assisted in conceiving flesh for the corrupted spirits of the Malisik, forming a blasphemous cycle of resurrection. The [[Malisik Inquisition]] perfected this process, giving rise to entire castes of creatures and beings. Evenly they resurrected Sebuuk in mockery of [[Universal Law (~~Lethurèa~~)|Universal Law]].

== Biology and Reproduction ==

Malisik do not reproduce sexually. Upon death, their corpses release [[Malisik Spores]] which infect the surrounding area. These spores grow into egg-like pods and eventually hatch into [[Malisik Larvae]].

In the wild, these larvae grow into full Malisik forms through predation and instinct. Within the Inquisition's [[Malisik Breeding Pit|breeding pits]], corpses are liquified in vats to accelerate larval growth. Special hybrids like the [[~~Suk'uu'luu~~]] are created by implanting spores in the wombs of a [[~~Shemèin~~]] [[Zelka]].

== Structure and Ranks ==

Malisik society is clan-based, with each [[Malisik War Clan]] ruled by the strongest, smartest, or most feared. There are no formal rank names; status is signified through tattoos, body mutilations, and ritual scarring.

== Punishment and Sacrifice ==

Failure among the Malisik is punished by death, dismemberment, or transformation. Corpses are either:

* Recycled into [[~~Uuthga~~]], a regenerating protein slurry,

* Recycled into [[Uthga]], a regenerating protein slurry,

* Broken down to fertilize spores, or

* Transformed into [[Malisik Husk]]s a Zombie-like automaton of hollowed flesh

Victories are celebrated with immediate sacrifice. Deformed, elderly, or malfunctioning Malisik are ritually fed to [[Malis]] as acts of devotion.

== Belief and Worship ==

Malisik worship [[Malis]] as their god, and [[~~Malismorai~~]] as his prophet. They believe:

Malisik worship [[Malis]] as their god, and [[The Malismorâ]] as his prophet. They believe:

* War itself is worship.

* The Divine Law is a lie meant to weaken the strong.

After the fall of [[~~Malismorai~~]] some believed:

After the fall of [[The Malismorâ]] some believed:

* The Chosen Heroine is a liberator—her light awakens something ancestral and maternal within them, linked to [[Meera ~~Jenlek~~]].

* The Chosen Heroine is a liberator—her light awakens something ancestral and maternal within them, linked to [[Meera]].

* Some Malisik kneel before her, whispering, “Bright One.”

* Tactical recycling of their own fallen via spores or vats

* Fully blown planet wide invasions

They cannot breach [[It'~~slémwé~~]], as its light burns their corrupted essence, but they have developed methods to black out stars deep within their territory.

== Legacy and Prophecy ==

Malisik are a spiritual blight—a wound in the [[Universal Order]]. Their continued existence is a direct challenge to [[Merrik ~~Jenlek~~]] and [[Meera ~~Jenlek~~]].

Malisik are a spiritual blight—a wound in the [[Universal Order]]. Their continued existence is a direct challenge to [[Merrik]] and [[Meera]].

The extinction of their physical forms is prophesied, but so is their liberation. Some believe the Chosen Heroine will redeem them. Others think they will be cast back into [[Gozog'nok]] screaming in the dark.

Line 63:

Line 97:

Malis feeds on every unnatural death—not the spirit, but the essence released. The Inquisition believes that with enough slaughter, Malis will escape.

This is, however, a lie. Divine Law forbids destruction of a universe—but it also forbids the release of those sealed by Judgement.
