Our Legacy
Malevolent has outlived servers, studios and whole games. This is the road that led us back to Azeroth.
- 1999EverQuestServer: 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.
- 2003Star Wars GalaxiesServer: 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.
- 2004World of WarcraftServer: Cenarion Circle (RP) · AllianceThe 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.
- 2007Lord of the Rings OnlineServer: Brandywine
Middle-earth gave us a slower road: kinship halls, music nights and fellowships through Moria.
- 2011Star Wars: The Old RepublicServer: 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.
- 2012Malevolent 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.
- 2026WoW: ForeverRuleset: 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.
Over 27 years the guild has set foot in most of the major MMOs.
