'''Malignius Mortifer''' is a necromancer just north of [[Port Sarim]]. He cannot be attacked, and has 4 apprentice wizards, one for each of the traditional elements: an [[air wizard]], a [[water wizard]], an [[earth wizard]], and a [[fire wizard]], all of which are level 13. Mortifer will often try to raise the dead, but almost always fails and creates fungus, though he never summons fungus twice in a row. Occasionally, he will summon a [[skeleton]], [[skeleton mage]], [[zombie]] or a [[Ghost (monster)|ghost]]. They will follow Mortifer if the necromancy is successful. Mortifer has no purpose for [[free play|non-members]], except that if a player annoys him, he will cast a spell, unblockable by the best Magical protection or even by the [[Protect from Magic]] prayer, to temporarily transform the player into a mushroom.
He takes part in the [[Swan Song]] and [[Fairytale I - Growing Pains|A Fairy Tale Part I]] [[quests]]. Mortifer calls himself a 'great practitioner' and a 'master' of the magic arts, he once triumphed over [[Tanglefoot]], and is known to the Dark Wizard [[Zandar Horfyre]]. Mortifier also possesses knowledge of the [[Nature Spirit]].

After the Swan Song quest, he will spare a player a [[brown apron]] and he will give [[bone seeds]] if the player has a [[empty pot|pot]] with a [[pot lid]].

On another note, when he casts his spells, he speaks Latin, saying such things as ''[[Da Mihi Potentia]]'' and ''[[Veni, Cohortes Malefici]]''.

If you speak to him after you have completed the [[Abyss (miniquest)|Abyss miniquest]], he will let on that he is a follower of [[Zamorak]] and he will tell you about the burning of the [[Wizards' Tower]]. Given that he knows about what you did for the [[Zamorak Magical Institute|ZMI]], he is probably a member of that organisation himself.

Malignius is one of the few NPCs that can summon creatures, though if you speak to him about it, he will tell you that [[necromancer|necromancy]] has nothing to do with [[Summoning]]. He also mentions that [[Wizard Grayzag]] (summons [[Imp]]s), [[Invrigar the Necromancer]] (at the [[Necromancer Tower]]), [[Sithik Ints]] (from the quest [[Zogre Flesh Eaters]]) and [[Melzar the Mad]] (in [[Melzar's Maze]]; necromancy drove him mad) are, or were, necromancers.

Apparently, he had "a slight accident involving a bottle of Super-Ultra-Flora-Growth-Potion" which resulted in the creation of the [[Giant mole]].

==Trivia==

* Malignius Mortifer is Latin for ''Deadly Wickedness''.
* When you talk to him with an item aligned to [[Saradomin]], [[Guthix]] or [[Zamorak]] and ask him if necromancy is similar to summoning, he will answer back with different responses:
:Saradomin: "Saradominist Fool! You will get no secrets from me!"
:Zamorak: "Although I note your respects for our Lord Zamorak, I am afraid the subtle secrets of necromancy must remain beyond your grasp."
:Guthix: "Deluded lover of Guthix, you will get no secrets from me!"
:Note: This works even with void knight armour, as the [[Void Knights]] are followers of Guthix.
:If you don't wear anything aligned to them, he says: "The obscure magical art of necromancy has nothing to do with Summoning." and he explains why.

* He will refuse to give you bone seeds or a brown apron if you have an item of Saradomin worn or in the inventory. 

* When he summons a fungus he still uses the old Fire Strike.
* At one time, players who were fast clickers were able to teleport before being turned into a mushroom. Said players would proceed to arrive at their destination and become a mushroom for several seconds.
* Malignus is one of several [[NPC]]s that wear two head items combined.
