Malice

Abstract
Pirates are threatening enough on their own when encountering them, but the Corrupticon Malice might be the worst example of her kind. Altogether devoid of any finer sensibilities that her cohort Setback may appear to have, Malice cares about one thing and one thing only: increasing her own power. In true pirate fashion, she cares little for how this increase is gained – murder, cheating, theft. Even if one of her own crew is the intended victim, the idea of betrayal causes nary a ripple in her empty conscience. Her only true loyalty in the end is to her master, who is more than happy to feed her power lust. Malice's impatient drive towards her next power snack equates to a truly dangerous entity – now more than ever. After being stuck on ice for millennia and her crew of sacrificial lackeys blown to pieces, Malice is furious and starving."'You assumed you were rid of me? You cannot slay that which death has no hold over!'"

Nature of the Beast
When the Alchemor detected a beacon coming from the bottom of the Milwaukee Deep near Puerto Rico, the majority of the team was sent to investigate. The signal came from a sunken cargo hauler from the Golden Age, apparently shot down. Unbeknownst to the team at first, this ship was attacked and boarded by Malice and her pirate gang, and they had awoken from cryo-sleep not long after the team boarded the vessel. A frantic chase through the ship eventually resulted in the vessel being rigged to blow and, in a trench-rocking explosion set by Windstorm, Malice and her crew were dealt with. At least so the team thought. If anything, destroying Malice's body only made her more dangerous.

Under orders from her master, she made contact with Steeljaw after his attempted assassination of Sentenza, teaching him the basics on the Corrupticon Ritual and provided him hints on the identities of possible targets he could use for it. She wasn't seen encountered again until Liege Maximo roped her and Setback into a scheme to capture Smokescreen and Windblade.
