Malice is an Appoplexian from the planet Appoplexia. Malice is the lieutenant of Vexx, the 99th leader of the Appoplexian Empire.
Appearance
Malice looks like any other Appoplexian, though he is shorter and thinner than Vexx and has a kind of mane/crest on the top of his head. He wears a punk/wrestler type outfit.
Personality
Like all Appoplexians, Malice's personality is argumentative, stubborn, and extremely fixated on solving all his problems with violence. He is much like Rath, even down to his speech mannerisms.
One specific quirk about his personality is the fact that he doesn't like feeling anything, especially feeling hungry. He is also very fond of burgers cooked animal-style with lots of onions.
History
Omniverse
Malice first appeared in Food Around the Corner. He attended a peace conference between the Appoplexians and the Lewodans, with Ben (as Gravattack) acting as a mediator. One of the Lewodan dignitaries attempts to sabotage the conference and kill them all, but is stopped by Ben, and the two sides reach a peaceful resolution.
He returned in the episode No Honor Among Bros, as a participant of the Golden Fist Tournament and the opponent of Ben Tennyson. Malice told Ben that even though he saved him and his people, he is angry because he prevented centuries of brutal warfare. Ben turned into The Worst, and after three hours of pointless punching, kicking and biting, Malice became exhausted and gave up the match.
Future
Malice was later seen attending Max's retirement party at Plumber Headquarters in The End of an Era along with the other Appoplexian leaders.
Powers and Abilities
He has all the standard strengths and weaknesses of an Appoplexian and he is always ready to start a fight, even with inanimate objects such as iron bars and doors.
