AQWorlds
Beleen | Thursday, January 30, 2025
Happy Throwback Thursday! Today we are honoring a guild that may no longer be active in AQWorlds but their legacy remains — because good memories and true legends never die! The Imperial Demons Guild started all the way back in 2014 under the name Nightvale, founded by the guild leader, aka the Infernal Empress, Pandemonium. What began as a small guild quickly blossomed into a thriving community. At its peak, Nightvale boasted over 500 members across its subguilds—Dawnvale, Duskvale, Bloodvale, and others—creating a network of adventurers united by their love for AQW.
By 2015, Nightvale evolved into Oculus Mortis (Eye of Death) before ultimately becoming Imperial Demons in 2016. This final name marked a new chapter as the guild evolved into a non-OP PvP, social, and events-focused powerhouse. The introduction of Tiger the Destroyer as Co-leader brought even more life to the guild, while a roster of dedicated officers ensured it thrived with engaging events and activities.
For 8 incredible years, the Imperial Demons Guild became a family. From hosting PvP tournaments like "Battle of the Noobs" to holding art contests, farming challenges, and even karaoke nights on Discord, there was something for everyone.
Weekly training sessions in PvP built skills and bonds, while creative events like storytelling and AQMV videos captured the spirit of the guild. Guild chat was often filled with humor, memories, and the shared joy of gaming. Over time, Pandemonium collected over 100 screenshots of guild moments, jokes, and PvP videos – wow, talk about a treasure trove of nostalgia!
Guild Name(s): Nightvale / Oculus Mortis / Imperial Demons Guild
Founded: 2014

Guild Story: Imperial Demons was like the family I never had, I grew up leading the guild single-handedly until I met Tiger The Destroyer who became Co'leader in 2016, and the many officers and old friends who would dedicate their time and effort in helping host events and meetings when I wasn't able to make it. We had a few name changes over the 7-8 years that the guild was alive and active. We were first called Nightvale. And at that time gained over 500+ members in our fb group from our Vale subguilds (Dawnvale, Duskvale, Bloodvale, etc).
In 2015 I decided to change the guild name to Oculus Mortis (Eye/s of Death) and then later became Imperial demons in 2016+. We were both an Non-OP PvP, Social, Party and an Events based guild, we held PvP tournaments 3 times a month 'Battle of the noobs', Non OP and OP PvP, PvP weekly training, Farming Challenges, Art/Media Competitions and General Knowledge/Quiz events, Player of the Month & Best Set which people won gift certificates for winning in these events. We also held discord activities like Karaoke, Storytelling & movie night.
I have collected over 100+ images of my guild friends hanging out and funny stuff they'd say in guild chat, a few PvP videos and a AQMV we made back in Oculus Mortis days where a few of my guild friends joined in on the fun. It was sad to see a lot of my friends leave Adventure Quest Worlds. I just hope that our previous members who eventually came back to AQW sees this post and remembers the good times that we all had!!
Though Imperial Demons disbanded in 2021, its impact remains. For Pandemonium, the guild was much more than just a group of players… it was the family they never had 🥺 Guildmates grew together, supported one another, and created memories that endured in the hearts of those who called it home.
But what if this isn’t the end of the story? With AQW Infinity on the horizon, there’s no better time to reunite and bring the Imperial Demons Guild back to life! Imagine regrouping for a fresh start, reliving the glory days, and making new memories in the next chapter of AQW!
If you’re a former guildmember of Nightvale, Oculus Mortis, or Imperial Demons—or simply inspired by this story—then please share this post with others. Let’s bring back the family for Infinity’s launch and prove that legends never die!
Don’t forget to wishlist AQW Infinity on Steam and prepare for an adventure like no other!
Battle on,
Beleen and the AQW team (and ofc Pandemonium + Imperial Demons’ guildmates too)
