The Marines Malevolent are a Space Marine Chapter in Warhammer 40,000. They have only have two real defining characteristics: they are complete assholes, and they hate (and are hated by) the Salamanders, which is probably related to the first point. It may also be related to their unique approach to hostage situations (hint: it involves Whirlwinds). Their big shtick, their defining trait, their hat is being massive assholes. I mean like, super massive assholes whom if their douchebaggery was a real and actual thing would collapse into a black hole and suck in the entire universe. As in they're pretty much the poster boys of everything bad about the Imperium rolled into one collection of chucklefucks.
They got a shortage of power armour, so they use whatever parts of power armour they can find. In the novel Salamander by Nick Kyme they even steal some from an abandoned Adeptus Mechanicus forge ship. They even blackmailed a First Founding Chapter Master to the point that he had to physically restrain himself from smacking the fuck out of the Malevolent representative. When the two met again at the end of the Third Armageddon campaign, said Chapter Master openly insulted the Malevolent Captain in front of the entire army, causing much sniggering amongst the nearer Guardsmen and earning the Chapter master (Tu'Shan) the title Hero of Armageddon.
Well OK, he got it for kicking Thracka's ass, but who cares.
Hence /tg/and GW writers regarding them as the worst chapter, notwithstanding the fact that they are merely assholes and cold pragmatists, while other chapters like the Black Templars or the Minotaurs consider ruthless brutality against civilians as their sacred duty.
Other forces in the Warhammer 40K universe may be EEEEEEVIL!!! on some sort of grand cosmic scale of grimdark, but very few are just nasty and petty and cruel in an all-too human way. That's not grimdark, M&Ms, that's just... unpleasant.
They have only a few named characters, and only a few are alive at the time of the 'present day' in 40K. The only Malevolent known to be alive at the time of Medusa was Vinyar, a Company Captain with a raging grudge against Tu'Shan. They had no fewer than thirty three of their men (including a Veteran Sergeant, two Techmarines, a pilot, and a fucking APOTHECARY) get infected by the Obliterator Virus while they were boarding the ship Demetrion, so Vinyar basically told them to go hit themselves with Tu'Shan's Thunder Hammer until they were purified. We are not kidding.
We mean the literal Thunder Hammer you filthy perverts.
