From what we've seen so far the Maleurous seem to come in 2 categories: those related to Doom/ the Shadowscythe and those with extra-dimensional, reality warping, almost meta abilities. Sinnocence and Voyna fall into this first category while Remthalas, Mr. Nameless, Locke and Key fit into the second.
If I had to say what I think the theme of the Maleurous is, I'd say it would be abnormality, reality deviant or maybe paradox. Sinnocence was a being of both Doom and Destiny, 2 diametrically opposing elements (it's name is literally a portmanteau of sin and innocence), Voyna was symbiotically bonded with a Doom spirit rather than being corrupted by it (something we didn't even know was possible), Lock and Key seem to be themed around a computer program or maybe even the code of the game itself, Mr. Nameless had the ability to trap Frostval in a snow globe pocket dimension and Remthalas was a disciple of Kathool (a being which managed to survive the Reset relatively unchanged and with knowledge of it's existence before the Reset).
As for why the Malerous are a considered to be a threat, (from what I remember from a developer answers thread from 2015), the reason Lore need elemental balance is because without elemental balance in place, it opens the way from some kind of primordial chaos to come in and wreck everything. The Shadowscythe want to destroy the other elements (which of course will result in element imbalance) which is why the Avatars consider them a threat.
My biggest question is how did the Maleurous end up trapped in Valtrith's mask in the first place? From what we've seen so far they seem to be too potent to be contained by someone of Valtrith abilities. I mean, I don't think Valtrith has ever beaten us in a 1 on 1 fair fight.
