Since 1999

Our Legacy

Malevolent has outlived servers, studios and whole games. This is the road that led us back to Azeroth.

  1. 1999
    EverQuest
    Server: Rodcet Nife

    It started in Norrath. A handful of players who refused to camp alone formed a guild, and called it Malevolent. Corpse runs, all-night raids and a lot of trains taught us what a guild is for.

  2. 2003
    Star Wars Galaxies
    Server: Starsider · Imperial

    We traded swords for blasters and built a home in a galaxy far, far away: cities, player economies and Galactic Civil War battles. SWG never really left us. Malevolent Gaming still runs its own SWG server today.

  3. 2004
    World of Warcraft
    Server: Cenarion Circle (RP) · Alliance
    The oldest guild on the server

    Azeroth is where Malevolent became a raiding guild. Forty-player raids, attendance spreadsheets, loot rules argued late into the night, and the first-kill screenshots that still get passed around.

  4. 2007
    Lord of the Rings Online
    Server: Brandywine

    Middle-earth gave us a slower road: kinship halls, music nights and fellowships through Moria.

  5. 2011
    Star Wars: The Old Republic
    Server: Vrook Lamar · Sith

    At launch we came back to Star Wars with a raid team built on a decade of experience. For the first year after release, Malevolent was one of the top raid guilds in the game.

  6. 2012
    Malevolent Gaming

    The guild started hosting its own game servers. That project grew into the Malevolent Multiverse: custom servers for Star Wars Galaxies, World of Warcraft, City of Heroes, EverQuest and more, at malevolentmultiverse.com.

  7. 2026
    WoW: Forever
    Ruleset: PvE · Alliance

    Blizzard opened WoW: Forever, and the Malevolent banner went up in Azeroth again. A new roster under an old name, and a raid team ready to write its own chapter.
