Malaise

Malaise used to be a hero trainer in Independence Port. His role was taken over by Aurora Borealis after Calvin Scott's interference.

Heroes faced Malaise during the Calvin Scott Task Force which is no longer available.

Villains face him in the Speak to Daos, then get the stolen pages of the Malleus Mundi from Malaise mission from Scirocco for levels 40-44.

Background

Description

Jean-Pierre Lourdin was not always a hero. He began his career as a villain in Europe, using the twisted images in his mind to commit robberies. With INTERPOL hot on his trail he landed in Paragon City, where his broken thoughts were detected by Sister Psyche. She confronted him and after an intense battle was able to subdue him.

She spent months healing the damage to his mind and has taught him more productive uses of his abilities. Sister Psyche vouched for him with the authorities and he has been allowed to help with the current crisis in Paragon City. Many are keeping a watchful eye on Malaise, however, for signs of his madness returning.
