Coraemalleia

Coraemalleia (pronounced Cor-a-ma-le-a) is the god of the Spirit Realm. He is believed to be the Corporeal Beast, and is worshipped by a group known as the Coraemalleia Occult. His source of energy is the Dark Energy Core, but the Dark Energy Core which Coraemalleia releases to attack players is roughly 1/17 of the entire Dark Energy Core. The official symbol of Coraemalleia is also in fact the Dark Energy Core itself.

Origins
Coraemalleia was not originally a god. Coraemalleia was in fact a Mahjarrat, just like Zamorak was. He even helped Zamorak with his rebellion on Zaros. It was said that Coraemalleia was fond of sharks.

Sometime during the God Wars, Zamorak decided to reward Coraemalleia for his efforts by granting him extra power. When Zamorak did so, however, Coraemalleia developed a will of his own, and fled. Soon after, he was hunted by Zamorak and his followers. Using his new powers, he tore a hole in RuneScape, which led to the Spirit Realm, and escaped through it, as the hole collapsed. However, as a result of the intense speed at which he went entered the Spirit Realm, Coraemalleia lost his body in the process. However, since being a god, his spirit was still maintained. Coraemalleia also lost the ability to speak. He soon found that he although he could create a portal, he could not go through it. He could, however, attract souls that have died in what would be the Wilderness. Coraemalleia believed that this power could give him a one-way ticket out of the Spirit Realm, as this would result in someone questing to 'destroy' him, therefore releasing him from the Spirit Realm.

The Coraemalleia Occult
Sometime in the Fourth Age, a group of travellers heading for the Wilderness were supposedly attacked by a group of rogues. They all died, and Coraemalleia was able to attract their souls, but before feeding on them, one of the adventurers tricked him into releasing said adventurer. After his release, the adventurer created the Coraemalleia Occult, as he admired Coraemalleia's power, and even named a bird (the Coraemalleian Bustard) after him. The adventurer is likely to have been the first person to respect him as a god, instead of a monster.

Freedom
After the events of Summer's End, Coraemalleia escaped from the Spirit Realm when a brave adventurer 'destroyed' him in the Spirit Realm, thus sending him out of the Spirit Realm, but unable to return. He can still devour souls, however.

Trivia

 * The name of Coraemalleia's signature bird, the Coraemalleian bustard, is based on the Kori Bustard, one of the heaviest flying birds, the weight of the bird possibly reaching 21 kg.
 * Coraemalleia has once been confused with Amascut, due to the fact that they both devour souls, until Jagex proved that Coraemalleia is a separate entity.
