Malcador (Warhammer 40,000)/AbaddonTheDisappointment

## **Summary**:

**Malcador the Sigillite** was the First Lord of Terra and Imperial Regent of the Emperor. He was the Emperor's closest advisor and friend during the Unification Wars and Great Crusade and stuck by him throughout the years when all of his other advisors had left him. He was credited with the founding of the Officio Assassinorum, the Adeptus Administratum, and influenced the rise of the Imperial Inquisition and Grey Knights. During the End of the Horus Heresy, at the Siege of Terra, he was tasked by the Emperor with sitting upon the Golden Throne so that he could face the Arch-Traitor Horus upon his flagship, the Vengeful Spirit. Taking up the task, Malcador was heavily drained by the immense energies of the Golden Throne and the tides of the Warp pushing against him through the shattered Webway Project. At the end of the Siege, he was nearly dead by the time the now mortally wounded Emperor returned. Giving up the last of his strength, Malcador sacrificed himself in order to give the Emperor enough time to give his last orders to the Imperium and remaining forces upon Terra. For this act, the Emperor decreed that Malcador the Sigillite was no more and that he would forever be known as **Malcador the Hero**.

## **Information**:

**Name**: Malcador the Sigillite, Malcador the Hero

**Age**: Over 6,700 years old

**Gender**: Male

**Source**: **Warhammer 40,000**

**Power Level**: **5-A**. **Low 1-A** while interacting with the Immaterium

**Classification**: Human, Psyker, First Lord of Terra, Regent of the Emperor

**Notable Abilities**:

* Superhuman Physical Characteristics
* Longevity (Has lived for over 6700 years)
* Psyker Powers (As the third, arguably second based upon whether or not Magnus the Red can be considered human, most powerful human psyker in the Imperium of Man during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy, Malcador should hold all the abilities granted by its Common Powers, Minor Powers, all of the Major Disciplines, the Psykana Discipline, and the Librarius Discipline. As these are powers any basic psyker can wield with enough training, Malcador's own abilities should be on a level unfathomably greater in comparison)
* Matter Manipulation (Should be superior to Hathor Maat who could disassemble the molecular structure of matter with nothing but his mind. Possibly comparable to Magnus the Red who could disassemble one of his sons on an atomic level)
* Forcefield Creation (Even without his psychic powers, Malcador's Archaeotech collar can produce a conversion field to block incoming attacks)
* Durability Negation (The majority of psychic powers attacks an individual on a spiritual or mental level and in some cases entirely ignores whatever armour they're utilizing at the time)
* Gravity Manipulation and Paralysis Inducement (Caused Tylos Rubio to collapse using the icon on his collar)
* Higher-Dimensional Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1) (Strong enough psykers and daemons can manipulate the Warp and realms of Chaos, a higher-dimensional realm made up of a collection of ideas. Held back the powers of the Warp for a time as they psychically bombarded him while the Emperor engaged Horus during the Siege of Terra)

**Energy Capacity**: **Star Scale** (Both Lord Deacon Viktor LaHayn and the powerful Psyker Torris Vaun, believed that after absorbing the Psychic energies kept within Neva's Psi-Engine, thus elevating their power to a level comparable to Malcador's, they would be able to remake the stars. Superior to other psykers like Ahzek Ahriman who was stated to have spun worlds before tearing their sun from reality. Should be far superior to a basic, unnamed warp-magos who was stated to have caused stars to go out). **Low Outerversal** while interacting with the Immaterium (The very nature of a psyker's psychic abilities revolves around them manipulating the Immaterium and the tides of the Warp to produce different effects. Sufficiently powerful psykers can even impose dimensionality upon the normally dimensionless realm. Said psykers can even create and destroy entire universes and realms within the Warp. The Immaterium itself said to be made up of layered infinities which can contain souls such as machine spirits that can impose an infinite number of dimensions upon itself. As these effects can only be done through manipulation of the Warp, this isn't combat applicable unless he and his opponent are placed within the Warp)

**Speed Level**: At most **High Superluminal** reaction speed (When Tylos Rubio attempted to slay the Sigillite, Malcador only saw him as a blur and only barely managed to block his attack with his staff. Rubio himself was able to fight against Ezekyle Abaddon who himself was able to impale and kill a clone of his father and Primarch Horus Lupercal before he could react. Horus Lupercal was comparable to his brother Sanguinius. One of Sanguinius' sons, Arkios, while using the Spear of Telesto which held a fraction of Sanguinius' power, was able to view lasers and plasma as entirely frozen, which would make his speed about 488.46 times the speed of light)

**Strength Level**: **Grade G** with telekinesis (Should be superior to Iskandar Khayon who pulled an 8 megatonne ship through the Eye of Terror. Likely comparable to Magnus the Red who lifted a 67 thousand tonne Capitol Imperialis)

**Resilience Level**: **Wall Scale** (Survived a single attack from Tylos Rubio, though it was only due to his staff and he was disarmed immediately. Astartes have shown themselves capable of easily ripping people in half), possibly **far higher** (Survived a backhand from Lorgar Aurelian, Primarch of the Word Bearers, though this broke several bones and sent him flying 20 meters away and was shown to have greatly wounded him). **Suburban Scale+** with psychic barriers (Malcador's own barriers should be comparable to the barriers created by Magnus the Red which were able to easily block attacks from Eldar Titans. Eldar Titans are comparable to Titans utilized by the Imperium of Man which have weapons that possess a yield of four-terawatts of energy)

* **Resistances**:
* Psyker Powers (All psykers naturally resist the powers of other psykers)
* Higher-Dimensional Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1) (Strong enough psykers and daemons can manipulate the Warp and realms of Chaos, a higher-dimensional realm made up of a collection of ideas, and as such he should resist their powers to a degree. Resisted the psychic bombardment of Chaos and the Warp during the Siege of Terra)

**Arsenal**:

* **Standard**: His staff with the Sigil of the Imperium, an Archaeotech Collar

**Intelligence**: **Genius** (Malcador acted as the Emperor's most trusted advisor for centuries during the Unification Wars, Great Crusade, and throughout the Horus Heresy and aided him in ruling the Imperium of Man, and in some instances ruled it in his stead while he was preoccupied, such as during the War in the Webway. As his most trusted advisor, he should be superior in intelligence to the members of the Adeptus Custodes, who, through their training and study, become masters in diplomacy and statecraft, astrogation and interstellar geography, history, philosophy, theosophy, artistry and countless other subjects)

**Weaknesses**: Malcador's body isn't as strong as his psychic might, which has led to instances in which he's been nearly slain when his powers were rendered ineffective, such as through the psychic nulls known as blanks.

**Stamina**: **Superhuman** (Got up within moments of being struck by Lorgar, despite his bones being broken by the attack)

**Range**: **Interplanetary** with psychic abilities (Should be superior to Teturact who could warp entire solar systems to his will). **Low Outerversal** with certain psychic abilities (Certain psychic powers that Malcador possesses can allow him to access the Immaterium itself, either via attacking the soul or mind of another, tearing rifts into the Immaterium, or travelling into it. The Immaterium itself said to be made up of layered infinities which can contain souls such as machine spirits that can impose an infinite number of dimensions upon itself)
