It's shame then that quite a few things were badly handled IMO. I won't speak of them here but the curious can find them at:

ObGlorantha:

Dark Lords* of Genertela

Can Shu, the Glory of Ignorance.
Argin Terror, the Nightmare Sorcerer.
Duke Reinard of Naskorion.
King Paruzal of Ramalia, Maniria.
Yolanela the Taloned Countess of Spol, Carmania. Chsa Glut of the Tunnelled Hills.

*the criteria for this is not only dark powers but also the Tolkienesque attribute of evil. Thus Uz are absent.

Evil Wizards of Genertela

Zzabur of Brithos.
Ostorious Archmagus of Arolanit.
Delecti the Necromancer, Dol^H^H^H Upland Marshes. Akgarbash of Laurmal, Aggar.

Genertelans that might make good Nazgul

King Gundreken of Loskalm.
King Congern of Jonatela.
King Rikard the Tigerhearted, Heortland. King Phargentes of Tarsh.

Genertelans that should not be given rings of power under any circumstances:

Harrek the Berserk
Ralzakark
Lord Death on a Horse, Kingdom of War
Sheng Seleris
