'''Malkariss''' was an extremely arrogant and deformed white polecat. He founded an underground [[Kingdom of Malkariss|kingdom]] beneath the ruins of [[Loamhedge Abbey]] in the far south, built by slaves delivered to him by slavers such as [[Slagar the Cruel]]. Malkariss was represented by a large limestone statue of a polecat which was in a room full of crystals. He used a basket connected by a rope to the statue to transport himself. Malkariss spoke only to his head rat, [[Nadaz]], who relayed his orders to others under his rule.<br />
<br />
After [[Matthias]] fell off the ledge where the statue dwelt during his fight with the [[Wearet]], he discovered Malkariss in his true form: old, weak, and hideous, not at all like the imposing statue. Malkariss tried to kill Matthias with his [[Sword of Martin|own sword]], but a small group of the slaves, whose [[Blackrobe Rats|guards]] had left them alone when they left to [[Battle of Malkariss|fight the intruders]], threw rocks at him, killing the polecat.<br />
<br />
The limestone statue was the symbol of the slaves' misery, so it was destroyed by [[Orlando the Axe]] and Matthias. After it fell off the nearby edge, it caused an earthquake. This earthquake caused Matthias and Orlando the Axe to be shot upward from the ground like a geyser, where they landed in a tree.<br />

===Trivia===<br />
* A polecat is a member of the mustelid family, like weasels and stoats; it is the wild ancestor of the ferret. In North America, "polecat" is an older term for skunk, which is not part of the mustelid family. In the [[Redwall TV Series]], Malkariss more closely resembles a skunk rather than a ferret.<br />
