Editing Malekith (section)

===Age of Myth=== 

Malerion arrived in Ulgu as a living, godly shadow. Mad about his formless state, he literally raged hard enough to give himself a physical body briefly, and from there practiced and eventually mastered his powers. As a result, Malerion has the ability to shapeshift, usually appearing as either a fearsome elf clad in iron and shadow tendrils or a dragonman. After figuring out how to gain and keep physical form, he explored Ulgu. It's implied during this time that Malekith kicked Be'lakor out of Ulgu.

It's important to note that his older half-brother, the line from which Tyrion and Teclis sire from, was named Morelion in the previous universe, and his father's name was Aenarion, possibly meaning there's meant to be [[Meme|pottery]] regarding him being on the side of Order. 

He found his mother Morathi in the company of shadow daemons. He still had many issues with her, and the feeling was mutual, but they called a truce out of loneliness. Eventually they met Sigmar and agreed to join his Pantheon. THis gave him the opportunity to search all the Mortal Realms for aelves. While heartened by meeting the few mortal Aelves he found, Malerion knew they were far too few for the sheer number of Aelven souls that once lived upon the World That Was. The Shadow king became determined to learn what had become of his people.

His quest eventually led him to the underworlds of Shyish and later to the other Aelven deities - the Twin Gods of Hysh Tyrion and Teclis. Tyrion and Teclis, especially Tyrion, had been archrivals to Malerion in the World That Was, and had since become beings so anathema to one another they couldn't enter the other's Realm in the new creation. But both heard the cries of the many tortured souls of ancient Elves - now Aelves yet to be born - devoured by the Chaos God Slaanesh during the End Times and the destruction of the World That Was. This led to the most unlikely of partnerships.

Together the three Aelven gods (and Morathi) discovered Uhl-Ghysh, the sub-realm between Ulgu and Hysh that was both light and darkness in which they could meet as allies and plot their vengeance against Slaanesh.

Throughout the Age of Myth, Malerion gave every appearance of labouring for Sigmar's Pantheon, though little he did was entirely altruistic. He crafted the Gladitorium, his greatest gift to the God-King, an arena of such awesome illusory power that warriors could fight to the death within and yet come to no harm, emerging unhurt after. Unbeknownst to Sigmar, Malerion could gaze into the Gladitorium at will, studying the stratagems of Sigmar's finest champions against the day they were (inevitably) sent against him. Uncommon among Age of Sigmar's gods, Malerion actually has specific commandments for his worshippers, with only four known ones so far;

* Give deference to shadows, for there walks Malerion.
* Knowledge is power. Seek it, keep it, but most importantly, use it.
* The deadliest blow is that which strikes unseen.
* There are many gods in the Mortal Realms, but only one King in the Shadow.

He also tutored those Azyrian Aelves who showed promise in shadow magic and brought them with him to Uhl-Ghysh. With Teclis' aid Malerion constructed a paradoxical engine of light and shadow, his contribution to the great plot that would lure Slaanesh, devourer of the Aelves of old, to Uhl-Ghysh and trap him in formless chains.
