Trivia[]
- Malem is based on a previous creation of Powermonger2003's villain Malrok van Darkstein.
- He is based on a the ambitious power hungry evil sorcerer type villain known in several fantasy stories. Some example of which is Gul'dan and Shang Tsung.
- Malem's appearance is similar to Malroc's, due to the fact that they're somewhat of a composite character of Malrok van Darkstein as mentioned before. So the creator decided to recycle the design and use it for Malem.
