Malachi is the littermate to Razia, child to Brigid, and adoptive child to Aldous. Raised lovingly alongside his sister, he has never wanted for anything. His coppery fur makes him reminiscent of a late sunset over autumn treetops, and his eyes, though bright white, emanate kindness. Though his sister is slated to be the future leader of the pack, Malachi is no sidekick. He has a mind for detail, and often catches onto small intricacies that others wouldn't give a second thought to. For that, he makes an excellent scout. Quick on his feet and a fast thinker under pressure, he excels at covering ground efficiently and escaping from danger without a scratch. While he is a great fighter in his own right, he prefers to avoid scuffles when possible. When Razia endured a severe injury that left her unable to take over fully as the pack's leader, Malachi continued to his impress his elders and stepped up to shoulder the role. Together, the two of them combine their skills to lead for the good of the pack.
Malachi sports a very mild and easygoing personality, and, while not as outgoing or gregarious as his sister, he is just as charismatic. He has a calming presence to his peers, and has discovered he has inadvertently become the pack therapist. His ability to address tense situations with logic and objectivity makes him great for advice, though he is not always right in his judgements. Some say he is his mother's favorite, but she would never acknowledge such a thing.
Malachi and Clementine have managed to fall in love on accident.
