Malacath is given the title of Deadric Lord, however. He may have come after Creation, but he was brought forth from a Deadric Lord directly. Boethiah devoured Trinimac - Malacath's former mortal self - and later spat out (not really, but it makes for a better sentence, lol) Malacath. It wasn't so much a Mantling, so much as it was a Transfiguration or Aptheosis of sorts.
