Malicia is the villainess in The Cluefinders Reading Adventures: Mystery of the Missing Amulet
History[]
Years ago, Malicia travelled to a planet called Millennia in search of an amulet. The planet's inhabitants, the Doldreks and the Sorrens, refused to give it to her, so in revenge, she encases the Doldreks in ice, turns the Sorrens to stone, and turns some of them into her minions.
Years later, Malicia beams Joni, Owen, Santiago and Leslie to Millennia and traps the latter two in a cage. She then disguises herself as a princess named Malveera and tricks Joni and Owen into getting the amulet for her.
After they obtain it, Malicia reveals her true self and steals the amulet from Joni and Owen. However, the amulet was actually a necklace that Joni had gotten from a flea market, so Malicia keeps Santiago and Leslie captive to bargain for them.
Upon arriving, Joni tries to throw the amulet into the lava, but Malicia has one of her minions grab it and then tries to zap the heroes with it, only for LapTrap to deflect it back at her, trapping her in the amulet and undoing the curse she had put upon the planet's inhabitants. She is last seen being buried by Socrates
