Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Chronicling the adventures of Dorian Hawkmoon, Duke of Köln and another one of Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion incarnations. Dorian lives in a far-future Earth that has rebuilt itself after the Tragic Millennium, but is being taken over by the brutal Dark Empire of Granbretan. Hawkmoon, whose own land was recently conquered, has to struggle with what has happened to him as a prisoner of that regime, and strives to help one of the few holdout nations, the Karmarg, ruled by Count Brass. This sets off a quest both to remove the infernal device implanted in him by the Empire and to find the legendary Runestaff, which can help restore the balance of power.Dorian's story is told in a tetralogy and a trilogy: The History of the Runestaff: The Jewel in the Skull (1967) The Mad God's Amulet (1968) The Sword of the Dawn (1968) The Runestaff (1969) The Chronicles of Castle Brass:Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) Count Brass (1973) The Champion of Garathorm (1974) The Quest for Tanelorn (1975)

Always Chaotic Evil: While this trope isn't normally applied to humans, the Dark Empire surely must count.

comment
Affably Evil: Shenegar Trott is shown to be somewhat eccentric by Granbretanian standards, what with belonging to no order and taking his mask off in public. He's shown to be witty, self deprecating and dismissive of the more obviously evil Meliadus. Of course this doesn't stop him from later threatening what he perceives to be a child.

Agent Peacock: Huillam D'Averc is a fastidious, louche hypochondriac with excellent dress sense. He can also kick your arse seven different ways.

All Hail the Great God Mickey!: Granbretan, at least, has a pantheon of gods, including a quartet named Jhone, Jhorg, Phowl, and Rhunga.
