Malver/Character

Character

“	Adept in psychic energy, Malver can kill enemy units without exposing himself.	”
	—Epsilon intel during operation: Singularity

Malver is the hero of the Scorpion Cell.

Act One[]

In Singularity, Malver is accompanied by a Virus in order to locate the PsiCorps Trooper and to destroy certain key buildings belonging to China and the Pacific Front. He cannot use his suppression ability and, along with the other two operatives, must survive the mission. Lastly, among the three Epsilon skirmish heroes, Malver is chronologically the first to become controllable in campaigns.

Act Two[]

The Conqueror[]

During the final phase of the mission, Malver and a team of assassins will arrive near the Kremlin and assassinate Romanov. Malver cannot use deployment capabilities in this mission either. While he technically does not have to survive the mission, carrying out the assassination is much more difficult without him.

Divergence[]

Malver is sent with Rahn and four Duneriders to the PsiCorps base near an abandoned Chronosphere. Both must survive until they reach the base.

Obsidian Sands[]

In the mission where Scorpion Cell betrays Yuri, Malver can be seen traversing the desert and slaying the proselyte's units in his way. He is impossible to kill, since his health is increased to 99999.

Epsilon Epilogue[]

Malver makes a brief appearance in the seventh scene. He is seen slaughtering Epsilon patrols in an undisclosed location somewhere in a desert after the successful activation of the Mental Omega Device, which implies he was likely immune to the effects of the global mind control. The Epsilon soldiers can clearly see him despite their lack of stealth detectors, implying that his portable Chimera Core no longer functions.

Special Ops[]

Blood Rage[]

Malver appears near the southwest Foehn base. When any of the player's units (including Scout Ravens) approaches him, he'll enter a Driller and leave.

Survivors[]

Malver leads a small group of Scorpion Cell remnants not under Yuri's control to secure Neurotoxin Vats from the brainwashed Scorpion Cell forces. He and the starting Scout Raven are the only of the player's units capable of entering the range of a Mind Reader without alerting the PsiCorps forces, and he can destroy the Mind Readers with the "aid" of barrels placed near most of them. His suppression ability affects both the invading Allies and the brainwashed Scorpion Cell forces, even before the player's forces are detected (and thus are treated as an "ally" by the latter). He must remain in action until at least one of the two Scorpion Cell bases has been recaptured.

Trivia[]

Malver has by far the least number of appearances of any hero who has been featured in the story.
