Spoilers: The Total War presentation of the Harbinger; no prophecy fulfilled and no campaign ending.
Who he is in Total War
Malagor leads the Harbinger of Disaster for the Beastmen. Call of the Beastmen unlocks him with Khazrak and Morghur. The Silence & The Fury is Taurox's pack and does not include this lord. In Immortal Empires he still uses Herdstones, Blood-grounds, and Dread. The difference is the general: a flying spellcaster, not an ambush Beastlord and not a brass minotaur who spends momentum to move again.
Keep him free to cast. The warherd needs something else to hold the melee while the omen works. A Bray-Shaman hero and a Gorebull are the ordinary supports. Malagor is the lord who already is the shaman.
The omen the older campaign named
The original pack's Beastmen account calls Malagor the fleshly incarnation of mankind's demise, to the Beastmen and to the people of the Empire alike. The skill portrait is more particular. He is the greatest and most terrible of the Bray-Shamans. He travels from warherd to warherd, whispers counsel to chieftains, and goes with them to battle. Men are said to fear him as a devil without equal, and the mere sign of him can send a town's defenders into terror.
That is a reputation, printed as character text. It is not a calendar of ruins already achieved, and it is not a result the player is required to repeat. Khazrak is the paragon of Beastlords, the patient guerrilla. Morghur is the corrupting presence whose faction leans on Spawn. Malagor is the traveler whose arrival is itself the threat.
Two maps, one shaman
On the original Beastmen grand campaign, the same account places Malagor in the Marshes of Madness, in the Badlands, while Khazrak begins in the Tobaro region of Estalia. Those starts belong to that older map. His Immortal Empires Herdstone is a separate opening on the shared sandbox.
The Dark Omen in that sandbox is the Bray-Shaman of the warherds, the flying caster of the Harbinger of Disaster, and the lord you pick when the Beastmen army should be magic with wings rather than an ambush or a rampage. Boris Todbringer remains Khazrak's named human enemy. Malagor's terror is aimed at defenders in general, not at one Runefang.
