The Wilderness Guardians is a RuneScape clan which has been around since 2003. Over the many colourful and hectic years of our existence, we've experienced far too much to put into one website page or one forum topic. So to document our history, we've started a wiki!

Here you will find a comprehensive resource on anything and everything WG - from the monumental battles we've taken part in, to the things that we get up to in the present. Feel free to have a look around - to get started, try something random or check out our full list of articles.

The wiki was released during the 2019 Anniversary celebrations, and as with most wikis it remains a work in progress. If you would like to contribute, check out the help page.
