"I have hated you all my life. I won't stop now."
—Malvolio to Mileager[src]

Malvolio De Vermis was a powerful witch born in the late 1400's. He was the younger twin brother of Mileager De Vermis, with the power of Energy Beam and Telepathy. He only appeared in the book Between Worlds.

History[]

Early Life[]

Though they were close as children, Malvolio had always envied his brother, whose status as the older sibling meant that he would inherit everything from their father while Malvolio would have nothing. Overtime, that jealousy turned to hate. While Mileager hoped that collecting spells and writing down his wisdom would somehow heal the bent bond with his brother, Malvolio was more interested in using his power for his own benefit. One day, the brothers fought and Mileager sealed Malvolio inside the De Vermis Mysteriis.

In 2001, Malvolio persuaded a heartbroken witch named C.K. Piers to cast a spell that put the world at risk. Her spell produced a destructive wraith and she became Malvolio's conduit to destroy the Wards. While destroying the portals from the realm of the dead would make them open to all, destroying them from the side of the living would do the opposite—the portals will completely shut off and all spirits who returned to the physical realm to visit would be trapped forever. This will eventually make the spirits turn angry and attack the living. Malvolio planned on harnessing their anger to end the world.

Final Confrontation[]

While the Charmed Ones and C.K. fought Malvolio, Leo Wyatt and Cole Turner went to find Mileager. When the time was finally right, Malvolio confronted his brother, and they resolved their sibling rivalry with peace instead of death. Their joined energy healed the Ward and they moved on to the afterlife together.
