Mullocks were a race of beings that lived in the sewers under London in 1886, although they likely used to live on the surface back in the 13th century.^[a] After finding a statue of Sir Dan, they came to worship him as their God, the "great one eye."

At first, Mullocks served as allies to Dan, but they later turned on him because he stole their Time Stone.

History

13th century

According to sources of dubious veracity, Mullocks lived in Gallowmere back in the 13th century. Their leader, the Mullock Chief, was given a piece of the Anubis Stone artefact after the Battle of Gallowmere in 1286. Once he passed away, he was buried in a special memorial in the Gallowmere graveyard along with the stone piece. Sir Dan dug the piece out a century later after learning about it from Death.

18th century

At some point, the Mullocks came into possession of an artefact known as the Time Stone. They also found a statue of Sir Daniel Fortesque, who they began worshipping as a god. They were a happy people who sang and danced until the coming of the Octomators who stole all of the tribe's women.

Upon meeting their "god" Sir Dan, the Mullock King asked him to help save their women. Following their successful rescue at Dan's hands, the king asked him if he would stay to defend them from future attacks. Dan refused. The Mullocks rewarded Dan with two treasure chests and sent him on his way.

Later, after taking the time machine from the Museum, Dan returned to the sewers in order to take the Time Stone from the Mullocks due to the time machine not working correctly without it. This made the Mullocks turn on their god, forcing Dan to disguise himself as their king so that he could get away.

Gameplay

Strategy guide description

They regard Fortesque as their God and their King asks him to save their women from the monster that took them.

Friendship is a fleeting thing, however, which is easily broken - especially by stealing their Time Stone! Once you've tried to take it, they will stab at you with their spears. You can't kill them, nor do you want to, so use your Sword to temporarily knock them senseless.

Behind the scenes

Development

MediEvil 2

Pre-release Mullock.

In pre-release versions of the game and in press materials, Mullocks had brown skin instead of green skin. The exact reason for the change is unknown, but it could be due to their skin blending in too much with their armour and the colours in The Sewers level.

MediEvil: Resurrection

Although they were not set to appear in the game, concept artist Mark Gibbons did sketch what one might look like in the game's style:
