Technically, anybody who follows Malkion's teaching is Malkioni. This is not say that all Malkioni will agree that all other Malkioni are deserving of the term, of course! In practice, it's at least as vague as the term 'Orlanthi' incorporating Heortlings, Esrolians and many others besides.

Certainly mainstream Malkioni do all four of these things. Venerational worship is also a key feature. But there are some 'Malkioni' (that is, people who claim to follow Malkion's teaching) who don't have a problem with False Gods - the waertagi spring to mind. Obviously, Hrestoli and Rokari would never admit that these people are really Malkioni...
