Mallaforax is a bit different from the other patriarchs. Though he gave up his consort to Tiamat, he had already pledged himself to another god, Krentismar, when the Dragon Wars came. Because Mallaforax had this other allegiance, Alerius swayed Tiamat to allow it. Though there are many green "patriarchs," Tanians understand this to mean that Mallaforax is the one who gave up his consort, where the others refused... and fell.
Mallaforax represents the dominion of dragons in nature. When injustice taints the heart of the fey or the natural order, the passion in their souls cries out to Mallaforax... and Tiamat derives a druidic order from this. Additionally, Mallaforax mastered druidic magic before Time and saved the eldar trees, called world trees. World trees are interesting because their roots bridge the center of planets. They are unique and, unless slain, are immortal. They affix Tehra against the onslaughts of Chaos and Warp. Though not aligned with Creation (they lack sentience), they are of Creation. Treants and other intelligent natural order creatures, like the fey, derive their nature from the eldar that became world trees as a way of eluding death when Time began to flow.
Mallaforax was given guardianship of the Merakoran elves, who built a stadium around him and the world tree central to Morilon. So nested into that tree's roots that most of him is now unseen, Mallaforax experiences the world through the trees. In his element and anchored near any world tree, Mallaforax is a god.
