- Mallus to Rip Hunter Mallus is the main antagonist in the third season of Arrowverse series, DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

He is an ancient paranormal entity that even the Time Masters dared not to speak his name. He currently leads a cult of followers and is worshiped as a god.

He is voiced by John Noble, who also voiced Unicron in Transformers: Prime and Scarecrow in Batman: Arkham Knight.

Past
Before time broke, Mallus was known to the Time Masters as an ancient powerful enemy that they dared to not speak his name. From unknown circumstances, Mallus became a major threat to time when the Legends broke time and unintentionally created anachronisms, with Mallus possibly being one of them.

Recruiting Acolytes
Mallus sent one of his followers, Eleanor, to resurrect Kuasa, and to then send her to 2042 and kill rogue hacktivist Zari Tomaz and steal her brother's totem. However, Kuasa failed to do so thanks to the Legends.

Mallus later ordered Eleanor to travel to London 1897 and resurrect Damien Darhk. During the ceremony, Rip Hunter interrupted them and demanded to Eleanor to speak with Mallus. Without hesitation, Eleanor agreed and within seconds, Mallus took possession of her body and stated to Rip that it was a pleasure to meet him. Rip then demanded to see his true form, Mallus wickedly laughed and said that he wouldn't live when he saw his true form and claimed that while Rip was mortal, he was a god. Just before Damien was resurrected, Mallus stop possessing Eleanor. In a few moments, Damien and Eleanor escaped.

Personality
