C3G Legacy LibraryThis is the archive for all the designs released in the original era of C3G. Feel free to post any figure specific questions in their individual books.
The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Marvel Hammer of Thor set.
Its model number and name are #009 / Malekith.
_________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - An ancient enemy of Asgard banished to another dimension centuries ago, Malekith was freed in the modern day by Surtur. Surtur charged Malekith with retaking his ancient weapon, the Casket of Ancient Winters, as it had the power to bring Surtur to Earth.
Malekith took command of his people, the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim, and brought the full force of the Wild Hunt down on Eric and Roger Willis, human guardians of the Casket under the protection of Thor. Eric was killed, but Thor put a temporary end to Malekith's schemes by destroying the Casket.
Though Malekith lost favor with the Dark Elves, he remained a menace to Thor and Asgard. He eventually retook control of his former subjects by killing Queen Alflyse, who had taken his place, and terrorizing the populace into electing him as their new leader.

-Rulings and Clarifications-
Q: What happens when you can't target and attack the switched figure in Illusionary Arts? A: Any time you target a figure and realize you can't attack them, you get to decide whether to try to target a different figure instead and go on with your turn as normal.
Illusionary Arts requires an "X" Order Marker to activate, pairing him with Loki can grant him an additional "X" Order Marker with God of Mischief.
Illusionary Arts can benefit greatly by switching out Malekith with a friendly figure with certain special powers. Just a few figures, of many, you may want to consider:
-Loki(God Of Evil)
-Darkseid(Imposing Presence)
-Blob(Stuck)
-Gamora(Master Martial Artist)
-Deathstroke(Calculated Defense)
-Flash(Speed Dodge 4)
-Huntress(Ruthless Counter Strike)
Dark Faerie Deception allows Malekith to bypass certain defensive powers on his turn, that trigger based on movement or attacks from an enemy/opponent figure. Since Malekith is considered friendly to all figures that opponent controls, some specials will not affect him as long as Dark Faerie Deception is in effect. A few examples: Green Lantern's Green Power Shield, War Machine's Auto Chain Gun, Doctor Doom's Pit Trap 14, Deadpool's Wisecrack 13, Daredevil's Radar Sense 12, Cosmic Boy's Magnetic Throw Defense, Bizarro's Villainous Duty, Batman II's Shadow Strike 15, Invisible Woman's Invisibility, Darkseid's Imposing Presence, Doctor Strange's Sorcerer Supereme, any figure's Intangibility.
Dark Faerie Deception prevents Malekith from taking any leaving engagement attacks from opponent's figures he is considered friendly to, and Malekith may attack figures non-adjacent even when adjacent to figures of that opponent, because he is not considered engaged while friendly.

CLASS = Trickster
PERSONALITY = Deceptive
SIZE/HEIGHT = Medium 5

ATTACK = 4
DEFENSE = 4
POINTS = 220
ILLUSIONARY ARTS
If Malekith or a friendly figure within 3 spaces of Malekith is targeted for an attack, you may reveal an "X" Order Marker on this card. Choose a figure other than the attacker within 6 clear sight spaces of Malekith and switch the targeted figure with the chosen figure. The attacking figure must then target and attack the chosen figure, if possible. Figures moved with this special power will not take any leaving engagement attacks.
DARK FAERIE DECEPTION
Before taking a turn with Malekith, if there is at least one unrevealed Order Marker on this card, you may choose an opponent. For the remainder of the turn, all figures controlled by that opponent are considered friendly to Malekith.
MAGICAL DEFENSE
When Malekith is attacked by an opponent's figure that does not have the Magical Defense special power, the most wounds Malekith can take for this attack is one.
I ran some playtests with the original design(Illusionist Deception 15), as well as with Illusionary Arts, just to be prepared ahead of time.

Army Test 1 Does it pass, Yes or No?
-Yes What should be the unit's point value?
-270-280 Damage:
-6 wounds on Invisible Woman.
-5 wounds on Mr. Fantastic.
-1 wound on The Thing. Power Effectiveness:
-Mr. Fantastic made it difficult for Malekith, as he was adjacent each time he attacked, thus no +5 to his roll. He also wouldn't have been able to use it due to Mr. Fantastic's Rubber Wrap. However, he didn't get 15+ once, out of 5 tries. Give a brief overview: -Both teams took position on the inside area next to the ruin. Malekith, Mr. F., Darkseid, and Thing took the height, while Bane and Invisible Woman stood adjacently below. Malekith took out IW, but then Bane was taken out by Thing. Malekith took out Mr. Fantastic, then Darkseid took out Thing. Human Torch made a desperation move, getting adjacent to Malekith and Darkseid, and on the following turn he used FO4, with no wounds from LE, and then followed up with his Supernova killing off Malekith and Darkseid, and severely wounding Blob. However, Blob managed to barely finish off Human Torch first.

-3 wounds on Gorgon.
-3 wounds on Flash. Power Effectiveness:
-Malekith's ID was successful 2/3 times from an adjacent attacking figure. He rolled a 17, a 13, and a 15. ID led to 2 wounds on Superman, by switching himself out with Superman to defend against Gorgon's attack of 5 skulls. Give a brief overview: -Superman duked it out with Psylocke and Gamora on the inside area by the ruin, while Gorgon ended up joining the fray. Flash also made his way to the scuffle, while Malekith tried taking pot shots from a distance. Psylocke managed to block and counter attacks from Superman, until her luck ran out. Gamora did quite a bit of damage to Superman as well. Malekith was able to switch a couple times, once leading to Superman being attacked by his own teammate Gorgon, and the other sacrificing Blob to defend in order to keep Flash locked down, but Blob ended up getting quite a beating. Superman was taken out by Gamora, Gorgon was taken out, and it came down to Flash and Malekith. Malekith took a swipe at Flash, and Flash wasn't able to escape, causing his death.

Army Test 3 Does it pass, Yes or No?
-Yes What should be the unit's point value?
-265-275 Damage:
-3 wounds on Raven.
-2 wounds on Scarlet Witch. Power Effectiveness:
-Malekith's ID was successful 0/2 times. Give a brief overview: -Both sides met in the middle, as well as some towards the ruin. Scarlet got a couple curses out, but missing her roll to re-roll skulls both times, led to her death early on. Zatanna tried removing the curse from Fate, but was unsuccessful, as well as unable to Mindwipe any enemies. Some whiffed defense rolls on both sides, led to a lot of deaths quick, especially when Selene came out. It came down to Malekith squaring off with Raven and Selene, and he wasn't able to succeed in an Illusionist Deception roll, nor could he wound Selene to bring her down a notch. Which led to head downfall.

Give a brief overview: -Both teams stuck to the road on the outskirts of the map. Malekith went for height, as did Dr. Fate and Bane. However, Magneto threw them all from height. Magneto was eventually killed off, as was Dr. Fate. Quasar and Bane were next to go. Leaving just Malekith and Psylocke to trade blows, while Malekith used Sage and Oracle to take some wounds for him using Illusionist Deception. This bought some time for Malekith to finish Psylocke off, but not before Sage was killed off. Malekith and Destiny traded off an attack or 2, but Malekith easily got the upper hand, and killed her ending the game.

-Malekith's ID was successful 2/6 times, all of which were from an adjacent figure. He rolled a 4, 15, 7, 3, 10 and a 15. His successful switches led to 5 wounds on Oracle. Give a brief overview: -This was a tough battle for Malekith's team. With such heavy hitters, Darkseid had to do what he could to keep Superman and Thor at bay. It ended up being successful, because Darkseid killed Superman, and did a few wounds on Thor. Unfortunately for him, Darkseid whiffed a defense, which led to his death. Gamora was also killed off by Thor beforehand, leaving just Malekith vs. Thor and Oracle. Malekith did what he could to try and take Oracle out of the equation, thus taking out her support, but ultimately it took Malekith deceiving Thor with an illusion to get him to kill her for him. Malekith managed to put 1 wound on Thor, before ultimately meeting his own demise.

An ancient enemy of Asgard banished to another dimension centuries ago, Malekith was freed in the modern day by Surtur. Surtur charged Malekith with retaking his ancient weapon, the Casket of Ancient Winters, as it had the power to bring Surtur to Earth.
Malekith took command of his people, the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim, and brought the full force of the Wild Hunt down on Eric and Roger Willis, human guardians of the Casket under the protection of Thor. Eric was killed, but Thor put a temporary end to Malekith's schemes by destroying the Casket.
Though Malekith lost favor with the Dark Elves, he remained a menace to Thor and Asgard. He eventually retook control of his former subjects by killing Queen Alflyse, who had taken his place, and terrorizing the populace into electing him as their new leader.
Suggestion for an edited-down, rewritten bio, because sometimes Comic Vine makes me cry. ("Malekith had his human agents harass Eric, in an attempt to regain the Casket, this evetually lead to his being murdered by Malekith himself." Blech!) Feel free to use anything you like and tweak/ignore what you don't.
Good to see this up and running, though! You know, it didn't occur to me until just now that we'd be getting back-to-back () Thor-themed Public Designs. Too bad there's no-one currently in the running to go for the threepeat.
Jumping the gun a little, aren't we? Beta Ray Bill still hasn't passed the final vote yet, though he's now only one vote away.
Second, when you start a design, you need to PM all the Heroes to let them know the thread is up. You also need to make a post in the C3G Promotions and Welcome to C3G threads.
Third, please update the SP with the design that was voted on. You are free to post changes you would like to make, but the thread needs to start with the original design. I personally like the changes, and we'll discuss them as part of the design phase, but designs should not be changed in between voting and posting the thread.

I took that as "we voted to pass it, except that one wording change, as soon as that's done, it's released". Clearly a mistake on my part(as usual).
2. That's why I haven't done so, as soon as I started to second guess and realized there was more to go, I held off on anything else.
You might want to start copy and pasting or at least linking all the discussion in the public thread that took place on the design between when voting began and now. It seems as though the design has already gone through quite a bit of redesign and not everyone might be up to date on things.

Ah, I see. Honest mistake, it can be confusing when a vote is and isn't required. BRB is close now, so we'll just leave this for now and you can send out notice when he officially passes.

Glad to see this one finally get started! The current version looks solid, though I'd want to bring his stats down a bit. I don't think Malekith should be that much of an offensive threat. He's not much of a fighter in the comics.
I know there was some pre-design discussion in the Public Design Post though. Do you want to post the alternate idea for Illusionist Deception,
@Aggressive Sock
, or do you prefer this version?
However,

I don't like this line. It's just too messy with Blob, Mister Fantastic as well as others where it's not clear what "prevent" means. Plus, no other teleport power gets around Stuck, even though they probably should, thematically.

1 attack of 4 at a range of 4 isn't much of an offensive threat, at all - not at his price range. Drop it any more, and he moves from 'not much of an offensive threat' to 'wow, he's utterly pathetic' territory - from what AG's said, that doesn't sound thematic.
I much prefer the alternative Deception Power based on the X OM.
