Mother Mallum

Mother Mallum is the queen of the sea slugs and plans to take over Gielinor. She already has control of most of the Fishing Platform and most of Witchaven. She first revealed herself to the world when the Slug Menace Quest was released. During the God Wars, at least 4000 years ago, she emerged from the ocean. Seeing the chaos, she tried to take an advantage of it, possessing numerous combatants. However, she was stopped by the Temple Knights, who sealed her behind a magical door. Unfortunately, in Slug Menace, the player is tricked into opening that door using some specially crafted runes. It appears that she communicates with an empty human body and during the last part of the Slug Menace Quest she tries to obtain the body of the adventurer who had inadvertently freed her (to communicate with), though at the last minute the adventurer was saved by Savant who teleported him/her out of the cave.

At the end of Kennith's Concerns, after the player calms him down, Kennith says that the queen is 'coming for you'.

Trivia

 * The name "Mallum", translated from Latin, means "of evil", thus making her, quite appropriately, the mother of evil.


 * If a player walks past the place where you meet the Mother after the quest has been completed, he/she will arrive at the Mother's prison.


 * In the FunOrb game Armies of Gielinor, set during the God Wars, one of Zamorak's monsters is a sea slug, although it resembles Mother Mallum more than it resembles the common sea slug. (Its ability is to control opponent units.)


 * The manner by which Mother Mallum communicates to the adventurer who freed her alludes to a scene in the movie, Independence Day. In the scene, a team of scientists are dissecting an alien body captured by one of the pilots (played by Will Smith) when it suddenly attacks them killing all but one. The alien proceeds to take over the host and speaks to the President, stating how the aliens will destroy all of mankind.
