1* CompleteMonster: Besides [[YMMV/TheIronTower Modru]], there are the following:
2** ''The Eye of the Hunter'': [[BigBad Baron Bela Stoke]] is a sickening fusion of [[AristocratsAreEvil evil aristocrat]], {{necromancer}}, MadScientist, and TortureTechnician. His standard MO is to move into a region whose people are unfamiliar with him and begin abducting the locals so he can perform horrific, Mengele-esque experiments on them until they die--with the addition of potions that both increase painful sensations and keep victims alive longer than naturally possible--and then uses their corpses in his necromantic rites. He keeps this up for centuries, leaving a swath of gruesome murders behind him while racking up a body count at least in the hundreds, possibly into the thousands. At the end of the novel, he reanimates the corpses of his victims into a legion of undead warriors he intends to use to conquer the world, apparently just for fun, and indicates that he'd murder his own father--and mentor--Ydral if he felt it necessary.
3** ''Silver Wolf, Black Falcon'':
4*** [[BigBad Ydral]] is [[TheDragon the chief servant]] of the evil Gyphon after Modru's death. With a legacy of evil going back millennia, Ydral is a vicious half-fiend who murdered the best friend of hero Aravan, and fathered the evil Baron Bela Stoke via the rape of Bela's mother. Ydral taught Bela all about torture and murder before abandoning him, later resurfacing to mentor Kutsen Yong of the Golden Horde and driving him to horrific atrocities while conducting blood sacrifices on titanic levels, all while torturing his victims to death. Ydral later abandons Kutsen Yong after killing countless innocents to dedicate temples to Gyphon, trying to summon Gyphon with blood sacrifices to devastate the world, all so Ydral can rule over what's left.
