Lots, many of whom are totally forgotten. Especially when the narrator needs to whip out a nasty surprise.

Indeed.

Aldrya. (In a physical sense; the Forest was split.)
Wakboth. (Well, splattered might be closer.)
Malkion. (Could be; stories disagree.)
Yelm. (According to pre-HW materials, mention of
which is apparently forbidden because that would
consign my reply the the Digest. Pppthbth.)

Frankgenert. One of my favorite ideas for an IMG event is that the players try to resurrect Genert and get it wrong. They leave out one part, resulting in horrible shambling zombie-Genert cross-bred with Hyena. Or, maybe worse, they accidentally include, say, the Eye of Wakboth. How the heck they would fix it is totally beyond me. But it would be fun.
