| Evil Sorcerer | comment |
The Evil Sorcerer is the living (or occasionally undead) proof of the maxim that power corrupts and that absolute power corrupts absolutely. They're the mage who has delved too deeply into Things Man Was Not Meant to Know and mastered The Dark Arts. They've achieved great power, but at the expense of their soul. They deal in Black Magic and might well have made a Deal with the Devil. Evil Sorcerers are very dangerous foes, as they are creative as well as clever. From them, one can expect anything: hordes of demonic (or undead) Mooks as the bluntest tool, More than Mind Control as the subtlest one, and anything between those two and beyond. They will probably be a Sorcerous Overlord, dwelling in an Evil Tower of Ominousness and ruling the land with an iron — but also magical — fist, though they may also show up as an Evil Chancellor, using their powers to subvert the throne more subtly. The Evil Sorcerer nearly always gets top billing as a villain, as one of their most common traits is pride. Where they're a second-stringer, they're likely to only be one-upped by a demonic bargain gone wrong — probably because they cheated. This makes them prone to learning the painful lesson that Evil Is Not a Toy. They might also be upstaged by a God of Evil — but then, the most powerful Evil Sorcerers often have delusions of godhood themselves. In a villainous hierarchy, they'll most likely be the Big Bad, The Dragon, or the Evil Genius (though they could also be The Man Behind the Man or, if they're little loyalty to any particular faction, the Wild Card). Killing the Evil Sorcerer is one way to stop their Keystone Army. The Evil Sorcerer can be at several levels of the Super Weight scale (depending on how strong magic is in a given setting) but he'll almost always be far more powerful than the heroes (unless they manage to get physical with them), and will probably be at least superficially stronger than their good counterparts (owing to possessing powers that the good can't or won't use). If they're an Evil Archmage, everybody should watch out. It's likely that every sorcerer will be this if Magic Is Evil. Compare the Wicked Witch and (for the more modern descendant) Mad Scientist, although some overlap isn't unheard of. Female versions are likely to also be a Vain Sorceress or Lady of Black Magic. An undead Evil Sorcerer will probably be called a Lich. |

Aladdin: The Series: Mozenrath, Caliph Kapok and Khartoum. Mozenrath is a power-hungry young sorcerer and is quite open and accepting about his own cruelty; in his first appearance, he talked about his sadistic, barbarous, and ruthless master Destane, who Mozenrath sarcastically referred to as being "like a father" to him. He is always accompanied by his flying eel familiar; Xerxes. Caliph Kapok is the disembodied head of a wizard. His head is cold, calculating, and extremely malevolent. Without the compassion or emotions that come from his heart, he only thinks logically. His body is benevolent and (without his evil head) full of compassion, making it a beloved leader. Khartoum is a supremely powerful, evil wizard imprisoned on the cover of a large magical book by his longtime enemies. His only hope of release is a magical gem called the Philosopher's Stone which contains the god-like energy and abilities of the cosmos itself. All he needs is someone greedy enough to create the stone and willingly release him from his prison. |

Deltora Quest: Thaegan is a very vain and evil Sorceress who hates all things beautiful and free (especially birds and people). Though thanks to her powers she's beautiful despite hundreds of years old. Thaegan's redeeming qualities are the fact she's victim of the Shadow Lord and her genuine care for her hell spawn children which was apparent even in the books. Filler Villain Oacus is nothing less than a evil mysterious Sorcerer who loves watching stuff burn and has a creepy fondness for young girls. Like Thaegan he is more just a byproduct of the Shadow Lord's evil, and wasn't born into it. Though it's never stated The Shadow Lord was a once a human sorcerer, similar to the non-cannon Oacus. Until he transcended into pure darkness Sauron-style. |

Although similar to the Saruman and Sauron example, he's still just one strong wizard trying be a god and gets overshadowed by the true antagonist Argosax, a Demon Lord who rivaled Mundus and Dante's father Sparda. | |

Dragon Age: The Tevinter Magisters, which is much more pronounced in Dragon Age II. In fact, according to the lore the Tevinter Imperium was responsible for creating the Darkspawn after using magic to try and reach the equivalent of heaven, only for it to go horribly horribly wrong. They're still around, mostly seen as slavers or maniacal and powerhungry blood mages. Dragon Age: Origins makes it seem like they're little more than a Vestigial Empire. The sequel reveals that, while they've suffered from the rebellion in the Southern lands (e.g. Ferelden, Orlais) and the never-ending war with the Qunari, the Imperium is still strong and has large holdings in the North. They're also slowly recovering and may threaten the Southern kingdoms in the future. | |

Warhammer: Age of Sigmar: While all members of the Arcanite Cults have some level of arcane skill, the Magisters of the Cult's leadership are the true masters of The Dark Arts who will stop at nothing to lead their Cult to victory and gain favour with their profane god. Having sold their souls to Tzeentch, the Chaos God of Sorcery, magical energy saturates their bodies allowing the Magister to draw upon the raw power of Chaos to power their spells. | |

Dragon Quest: Dragon Quest: Dragonlord's initial form presents himself as a sorcerer, though he also is generally portrayed as getting physical. Dragon Quest II: Hargon, the primary antagonist, is a corrupt wizard bent on world destruction. Dragon Quest III: Baramos is plenty nasty, as well as the most magically-inclined of the game's major antagonists in combat. Dragon Quest IV: Aamon is a terrible sorcerer who intends to wipe all humans out. Dragon Quest V: King Korol is a powerful wizard who leads the evil Order of Zugzwang. Ladja is fond of using his powerful fire spells to beating and torturing children or burning their parents to ashes gleefully. Dragon Quest VIII: Although a vengeful magician, Dhoulmagus didn't have much magic until he picked up the staff, then he really got rolling. Dragon Quest XI: Mordegon He first appears as such. Once he gains the Sword of Light and takes the Luminary's power, he transforms into the new bulky form befitting a demon lord in this series. |

Disney Animated Canon: Aladdin: Jafar uses his second wish in order to give himself magical powers. The Black Cauldron: The Horned King (who takes on the role filled by Arawn in the novel) is a skeletal sorcerer who attempts to revive the dead with the Black Cauldron to use an army with which to conquer the world. The Little Mermaid (1989): Ursula, a sea witch who turns merfolks into polyps once they failed to meet her demands from her deals. The Princess and the Frog: Dr. Facilier, a witch doctor who was responsible for turning Prince Naveen into a frog and has made deals with his "friends on the other side". Sleeping Beauty: Maleficent is referred to as a fairy, but her long, black dress, scary castle, and terrifying abilities definitely give her the appearance of an evil sorceress. Averted in both her live adaptation appearance and the sequel where she is portrayed more sympathetically. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: The (unnamed) evil Queen is a sorceress who uses a spell to transform into an old hag to deceive and kill Snow White. |

There and Back Again: Brynden "Bloodraven" Rivers, the Three-Eyed Raven, is depicted as one of these thanks to his extensive warging powers and ability to siphon Blood Magic. He sabotages Jon Snow by transferring the magic in his blood into Daenerys Targaryen and Bran Stark, sapping much of his intelligence. He also took over Bran Stark's body, either assimilating his consciousness or leaving it to die in his cave when it was attacked. From that point, Bloodraven (as Bran) engineered the Long Night and the Destruction of King's Landing so that Jon Snow would be exiled as he was, while Bloodraven would rule as an Immortal Ruler. | |

The Sorcerer's Apprentice has the Morganians, who are an entire group of sorcerer's who follow Morgana's teachings. The key among them, besides Morgana herself, is Maxim Horvath, who is one of Merlin's apprentices until he chose to serve Morgana. Morganians are opposed by Merlinians, the followers of Merlin's teachings that magic is to be used to serve humanity. The film only shows three of them (Balthazar, Veronica, and Dave) and no indication is made that more are (or were) present. | |

On the other hand, every once in a while a member of the House of Dzur will go off to slay her, and none of these people are ever heard from again... Loraan, Baron of Smallcliff, was a powerful Athyra wizard and necromancer, and also an undead. |

She is a Dark Messiah who was supposed to bring an end to an ancient war between elves and dragons. It worked, but not the way intended: both races considered her an abomination and joined forces to destroy her family. Vol's mother turned her into a lich, allowing her to survive and seek her revenge. | |

Shannara: The Warlock Lord, Brona, from Terry Brooks' The Sword of Shannara and its prequel First King of Shannara. He is actually described by Bremen to be things like "no longer a man" and "a dark creature." He is said to no longer have human thoughts, but to act completely on instinct. He has given himself to the darkness so completely, when he's in his tent, Risca tries to sneak inside and finish him off only to realize that... he's not there. He's become the darkness around him, and it gets to the point that it seems that even taking the form of a vague cloaked figure is somewhat of an annoyance to him and not actually necessary. He IS sorcery. Given that a recurring theme in Brooks' writing is that the abuse of magic twists and warps the user, it isn't surprising that he uses this one a lot. The Dagda Mor from The Elfstones of Shannara, the Mord Wraiths in Wishsong, the Shadowen from The Heritage of Shannara, and the Morgawr from The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara are all prime examples. |

Dabura the Demon King although he is The Dragon to the aforementioned Babidi is also a powerful demonic sorcerer himself, on top of being a Flying Brick who can physically throw down with Saiyans. His sister Towa seen in expanded material like Dragon Ball Xenoverse is a Morgan le Fay-esque sorceress crossed with a Mad Scientist "Planet Eater" Moro introduced in the Dragon Ball Super manga. He uses powerful magic to absorb life energy from planets and their inhabitants! Mamba from Dragon Ball GT: A Hero's Legacy is a demon who uses her magic to lure people in her home and then eat them. |

In Johannes Cabal the Necromancer Cabal deals with Rufus Maleficarus, an example of a wizard who doesn't have stereotypical smarts: as Cabal put it, all the dark knowledge he learned took up space in his brain already used by his sanity. The result is a big man with wild hair and delusions of grandeur who, nonetheless, nearly brought about the apocalypse, was able to escape from a mental institution by using finger paint to summon a Hound of Tindalos, and transports Cabal into a pocket dimension. | |

All literal Sorcerers in The Dresden Files, as the term means a spellcaster whose magical abilities are limited to mostly destructive uses, lacking the subtlety of a true Wizard, making them Unskilled, but Strong at best. Most of their abilities also involve breaking one or more of the Laws of Wizardry, each of which carries a death penalty. Stronger Law-breakers are known as Warlocks (technically all are, but the title of Warlock only tends to be given to White Council level dark wizards). Notable examples of the former include Victor Sells from the first book, Kravos from the third — though the former was Unskilled, but Strong (which Dresden used against him), and the latter was little more than a two-bit sorcerer before he killed himself to become the Nightmare, a psychotic super-ghost. Two full Wizards who also fit this trope are Harry's former mentor Justin DuMorne and Cowl, a recurring enemy. Additionally, Denarians (human hosts to Fallen Angels in thirty silver coins. Yes, those thirty silver coins) with natural magic abilities become this, even if they weren't to begin with — practitioners get Stronger with Age and practise, and as Bob the Skull points out, after a few centuries, "even modest talents can grow teeth." Quintus Cassius, both as a Denarian and after (though he's not very powerful), Thorned Namshiel (who's both powerful and very skilled), and Tessa (who makes a habit of chucking lightning bolts around) all qualify. |

Discworld: Parodied with Dr Hix of the Unseen University's Department of Post-Mortem Communication (and certainly not necromancy), who is officially the University's Bad Person, and is therefore permitted to perform mild acts of "evil", such as practical jokes or saying what everyone else is thinking. The thinking is that, PMC being what it is, it's better to have someone sensible playing a rolenote The aspect of his personality that most worries the other wizards is his enthusiasm for amateur dramatics than run the risk of an actual Evil Sorcerer taking the position. Played straight with Ipslore the Red, Big Bad of Sourcery who cheerfully abandons all sympathetic qualities with the death of his wife and becomes The Man Behind the Man to his son, the sourcerer in question (so called because his place in the birth order, Coin is capable of generating magical energy-which makes him a Physical God). He exists only in a Soul Jar, but how he was able to sneak that one past Death cements his place here; he made it so that reaping his soul will kill Coin. Subverted with Coin himself, however; while he at first makes a terrifying impression, killing several people, he turns out to be acting under his father's orders and is a remarkably sweet kid for someone with such a terrible role model. Also in Sourcery, the Grand Vizier of Klatch is also an Evil Sorcerer, who was thrown out of Unseen University for being insane. Rincewind is genuinely surprised at this, because while he's evil, it's more because he's expected to be, and he's actually saner than many UU wizards Rincewind has met. |

Spirit of the Century: The supplement Spirit of the Season brings magic more fully into the game, and naturally has a couple of magical villains, including Salomon Mizrahi, a evil kabbalist who is convinced he is a Tzadikim Nistarim, one of the 36 Righteous People whose existence supports that of the world. Interestingly, he's actually better at Science! than he is at magic, making him particularly dangerous. His mentor (and general Big Bad of SotC) Dr. Methusala may be considered to fall under this trope with his mastery of the 10 equations and ability to radically alter reality, and blur the line between science and magic (then again, SotC treats magic as being answerable to science, just not till it's properly studied). |

Jeremiah Sand in Mandy (2018) is a modern-day version of this.

Planescape gave us a few, including Alhison Nilesia, the cruel mistress of the wretched Prison of Sigil, Lothar the Master of Bones, Komosahl Trevant, Alluvius Ruskin, and even a few demons and devils that had taken up wizardry, such as A'kin and Shemeshka. Every Night Hag counts as well, being a race of giant soul-stealing crone witches. Subverted with Factol Skall, who is technically a neutral evil lich, though he is only evil to the extent that his philosophy is that life is irrelevant. He does not kill, but persuades others to accept true death as a release from the woes of life. And of course there are the many, many diabolic powers such as Orcus and Asmodeus, the various gods who can certainly fall into this role, and so on. |

Elphaba in Wicked is treated as this by the citizens of Oz, but we find out in the show that she is Not Evil, Just Misunderstood. Madame Morrible would be a more clear-cut example, using her sorcery to gain more political power for herself throughout Oz. She even summons a twister to murder Elphaba's sister so Elphaba would be grief-stricken and thus vulnerable for attack. | |

Dracula is said to have been adept in the dark arts due to being trained as a Solomonari, a dark wizard from Eastern European folklore. It's heavily implied that he rose as a vampire in the first place through magic rather than being bitten like all of his victims, and his more famous powers like turning into mist, bats, wolves or summoning storms are likely product of his black magic rather than inherent vampire powers. | |

Several villains from The Saga of the Noble Dead practice sorcery, notably Chane, a vampiric Psycho for Hire and Magic Knight, and his partner Welstiel, who specializes in crafting magical items. The character from the series who most fits the stereotypes, though, is Ubad- Necromancer, old, Black Cloak, pact with the dark forces, etc. Not a guy to cross. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: Saruman from The Lord of the Rings. He's actually The Mole, attempting to subvert the White Council of good wizards and sages while simultaneously making deals with the Dark Lord Sauron. In fact, he thinks that he can be the Dark Lord himself. Gandalf even points out that Saruman had turned Orthanc into a Poor-man's Barad-dûr. In The Hobbit, we're led to believe that the vile Necromancer is an Evil Sorcerer. In The Lord of the Rings, it's revealed that it's actually Sauron himself. Though he's actually a Physical God, Sauron is called a sorcerer in The Silmarillion as well, probably due to the largely mystical/spiritual nature of his particular power set. The Nazgûl all are also called sorcerers, though it's unclear whether they had their powers before getting their rings. |

The Order of the Stick: Xykon, the Big Bad, is a literal sorcerer; a spellcaster who was born with his powers rather than learning magic through study. Vaarsuvius becoems one for a while, thanks to an obsession with ultimate power, and briefly goes off the deep end after splicing the souls of three damned wizards to their own in exchange for power. Nale is this in a strictly literal sense— he's Evil and has levels in Sorceror — but he doesn't really fit the spirit of the trope, as Sorceror is not his only character class, meaning his magic is much weaker than that of the above characters and rarely gets used. It's not played up as much as his being Elan's brother and leader of the Linear Guild. |

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: Arondil the Necromancer is a perverted creep who was exiled from Dawnstar because he became a Stalker with a Crush to the village's milkmaids. He went into hiding in some nearby ruins to perform his practices in secret, and when one of the adventurous girls went exploring in the ruins he killed her and raised her as a thrall to sleep with her. Now he sends undead draugr to capture Dawnstar's women and bring them back to Yngvild to create his own undead harem. If you ever go into Yngvild, please do waste him. The Big Bad of the Dragonborn DLC, Lord Miraak, is an extremely powerful magical Dragon Priest and is the first Dragonborn himself able to give the player a taste of their own Super-Scream medicine. The irony of him of being a sorcerer is that he's actually a Nord, a race that mostly Does Not Like Magic on principle. Although as explained by the lore, ancient Nords like Miraak (especially their Atmorans ancestors) used magic all the time, it just fell out of practise by Nords in the modern times where the games take place. |

Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening: Arkham is another human sorcerer who desired to have the power of a demon so sacrificed his loving wife Kalina Ann in ritual to become a demon, but messed up and only gained a Monster Clown Superpowered Evil Side Jester. He spends the rest of the game, attempting to gain the power of Sparda and is even able to fight and overpower both half-demon boys Dante and Vergil as well as his own Action Girl daughter Lady whose blood he uses to open the demon world. Similar to Arius however, he soon becomes a secondary threat to real Big Bad (in this case Vergil) by the end since he can’t properly utilise the power of Force Edge and eventually devolves into a gooey monster before getting his ass kicked out of the demon world by Dante and Vergil. | |

Neverwinter Nights 2: In the main campaign, much of the plot is driven by Black Garius of the Arcane Brotherhood in Luskan, Neverwinter's historical rival. Big Bad Wannabe Garius and his minions seek to undermine Neverwinter to make it easy prey for Luskan conquest. After the Knight-Captain foils these plans, Garius and his inner circle seek out their true master, the King of Shadows, who transforms them into Shadow Reavers, powerful liches bound to his command — and it is in this form in which Garius is finally fought and killed. Mask of the Betrayer: The Knight-Captain is drawn into the political machinations of the Red Wizards of Thay. While party member Safiya makes the point that not all Red Wizards are evil, one of the main villains is Araman, a fellow red wizard who kills Safiya's mother in a coup to take over the academy at Thaymount, sends Safiya's own students and fellow faculty members to kill her, and is bound by his oath to the death god Myrkul to ensure that the Spirit Eater curse is never broken, even if that means killing the Knight-Captain to ensure it moves on. |

Exalted, being a fairly high-magic setting, has a couple. The Perfect of Paragon isn't that bad a guy in some ways, but he rules using a magical artifact called the Staff of Peace and Order that lets him have people swear magically backed oaths on it, kill them if they break the oath, and hijack their senses and even bodies at will (he also has some pretty impressive powers of his own, but the Staff blows them out of the water). Raksi, Queen of Fangs, is a baby-eating shapeshifter who, despite being more powerful than all but a few hundred other people could ever hope for, is obsessed with the power that will remain forever out of her reach. (Ability to access magic is limited by in-universe character tiers; she's not at the top tier, and so can't get to the best magic.) Both of them rule their chosen city-states with iron fists, although the Perfect's people are generally happier with their government than Raksi's. | |

In the Marvel Universe: Master Pandemonium, enemy of The Avengers. Doctor Doom. A rare example of one who is also a Mad Scientist. Baron Mordo, arch-rival of Doctor Strange. His daughter Astrid Mordo, who tried to kill both her father and Strange. Kaluu, another foe/occasional ally of Doctor Strange (as Sorcerer Supreme he tends to attract these). Dormammu, Strange's archenemy and Mordo's sometime master, is a demon who is also an evil sorcerer. Gravemoss, foe of Excalibur. Nicholas Scratch, enemy of the Fantastic Four. And, arguably, their other enemy Diablo, who is an evil immortal alchemist. Master Khan, enemy of Iron Fist and Namor. Belasco, foe of Ka-Zar and the X-Men. Amora the Enchantress is somewhere between Wicked Witch and Vain Sorceress having magical prowess to match the likes of Loki and Doctor Strange. Formerly, Loki, God of Mischief and archenemy of his brother Thor, is perhaps the most powerful sorcerer in all of Asgard, rivaled only by evil (mostly) sorceress Karnilla. Now, both occupy a position of amiable neutrality. Hela, Loki’s alleged daughter (although they and Marvel don’t like to talk about it) is an extremely powerful necro-sorceress with magical might that can often surpasses her father and allows her go toe to toe with Thor on occasion. Gorr the God Butcher thanks to his Cool Sword All-Black (which belonged to God of Evil Symbiote creator Knull) has a variety of dark magical powers including being a Mook Maker. He’s also able to slay countless gods and give even Thor himself an extremely hard time. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Prince Loki, the Big Bad of Thor and The Avengers and the Token Evil Teammate in Thor: The Dark World. His Psychic Powers are referred to as "magic." Even among powerful Asgardians (such as the all-seeing, all-hearing Heimdall, whose Super-Senses Loki can shield himself from), the extent of Loki's sorcery skills is not fully understood. Malekith, the Big Bad of Thor: The Dark World. He is the leader of the Dark Elves, Sufficiently Advanced Aliens. Malekith has nearly destroyed the universe in the past and tries doing it again, using the dark power of the Aether. Kaecilius, the Big Bad of Doctor Strange. He is a Master of the Mystic Arts whose evil goal and forbidden techniques put him into direct conflict with the Magical Society, Kamar-Taj. He serves an Eldritch Abomination, Dormammu and strives to make the Earth the latter's domain. Ebony Maw, The Dragon in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. He is a cruel and sadistic wizard with strong telekinetic powers of unknown origin. Overlapping with Wicked Witch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch thanks to the corrupting Darkhold and her own trauma has upgraded from Psychic Power Dark Action Girl to Person of Mass Destruction evil goddess. Her chaos magic was more than enough to overpower the army of sorcerers at Kamar-Taj, annihilate the Illuminati whom had killed Thanos in their universe and overpower Strange himself, who had to tap into Darkhold himself just to get an edge. Speaking of Strange, the version of him seen in the Bad Future universe where he’s been corrupted by the Darkhold certainty counts as this, even if he’s not wholly evil. |

Dungeons & Dragons loves this trope. By campaign setting: Dragonlance: As mentioned above, Raistlin and Fistandantilus. And Dalamar, Maladar, Galan Dracos, most Renegades, and the Order of the Black Robes (though the latter are admittedly often Affably Evil Anti Villains or Anti Heroes, as most are more self-serving and amoral). Forgotten Realms: Halaster Blackcloak, Manshoon(s), the ruling council of the city of Shade, Szass Tam and the rest of the Red Wizards of Thay. And these are just the most notable/infamous. There's probably hundreds of 'em. Greyhawk: Vecna (who eventually ascends to godhood), Rary the Traitor, the infamous Acererak. There is also Iggwilv the Witch Queen, who is considered to be the greatest expert on demons who ever lived. One of her sons is the child of a powerful demon lord and accended to divinity. Even though she's hundreds of years old, she looks not a day older than 40 at most. Mystara: Bargle the Infamous. Ravenloft: Azalin Rex, a Tragic Villain example. As well as almost every lich ever — the terrible things the ritual requires to be done makes it a prerequisite. Other notables within the setting are fellow spell-slinging darklords Easan the Mad, Hazlik, Meredoth, and Strahd von Zarovich. Eberron gives us Erandis Vol, an undead half-elf/half-dragon sorceress who founded a cult dedicated to her worship. She is a Dark Messiah who was supposed to bring an end to an ancient war between elves and dragons. It worked, but not the way intended: both races considered her an abomination and joined forces to destroy her family. Vol's mother turned her into a lich, allowing her to survive and seek her revenge. Planescape gave us a few, including Alhison Nilesia, the cruel mistress of the wretched Prison of Sigil, Lothar the Master of Bones, Komosahl Trevant, Alluvius Ruskin, and even a few demons and devils that had taken up wizardry, such as A'kin and Shemeshka. Every Night Hag counts as well, being a race of giant soul-stealing crone witches. Subverted with Factol Skall, who is technically a neutral evil lich, though he is only evil to the extent that his philosophy is that life is irrelevant. He does not kill, but persuades others to accept true death as a release from the woes of life. And of course there are the many, many diabolic powers such as Orcus and Asmodeus, the various gods who can certainly fall into this role, and so on. Acererak the lich takes the "evil" part to absurd levels. His list of transgressions against humanity includes constructing multiple dungeons solely to gather victims to torture, enslaving civilizations, nurturing a god that could destroy the world, gathering the souls of all creatures on an entire planet for that purpose, trapping the soul of a 10-year old in an undead construct, and being so gruesome that he traumatized an eldritch abomination. |

Mortal Kombat: Shang Tsung and Quan Chi embody this trope very well. Shao Kahn and Shinnok pull this off as well, while also overlapping with God of Evil. There’s also Ermac who is always somewhere between Elite Mook and The Dragon being Made of Magic and judging by hierarchy among the villains is likely the most powerful under Shao Kahn himself. Justified since being a Soul Jar made up of Edenian souls Long-Dead Badass King Jerrod (Kitana’s father) is inside Ermac. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The primary Big Bad Ganon has taken on many forms, but one trait they all share is an aptitude for powerful magic, which is revealed in Ocarina of Time (his chronologically first appearance) to be the result of him being raised by two Gerudo witches. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: Agahnim is a powerful wizard who used his magic to win the trust of Hyrule's king before seizing the entire kingdom for himself, though he may just be an alter ego of Ganon, depending on the version and the translation. Vaati, the Big Bad of the Four Swords trilogy (at least until Four Swords Adventures gets Hijacked by Ganon), has the title of Wind Mage, having received his initial powers thanks to stealing the Mage's Cap from his teacher and using its power to make himself a powerful sorcerer. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages: The Big Bad is the Sorceress of Shadows, Veran. The people pulling the strings behind both Oracle games are the witches Twinrova (the same ones who raised Ganon). The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Zant, the primary antagonist, has incredibly powerful dark magic gained from his deal with Ganon, who proceeds to once again hijack the game after Zant's defeat. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: Yuga, a sorcerer from Lorule who seeks the power of Hyrule's Triforce and can turn people into literal paintings. He even manages to successfully fuse with Ganon while ceding little of his original personality. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity: Astor is a hooded man working with the Yiga Clan to resurrect Calamity Ganon. He is able to directly manipulate Ganon's Malice and uses it to shoot fireball-like projectiles and produce shadowy Doppelgangers of the Champions among other things. |

Star Wars: The Old Republic lets you play out both styles of Sith mentioned in the Star Wars movies example above: the in-your-face lightsaber-wielding Sith Warriors and the evil sorcerer Sith Inquisitors. In fact, playing a Dark Sided Sith Inquisitor basically lets you experience Emperor Palpatine's rise to power. That said, a Dark Sided Jedi Consular — the Republic counterpart class to the Inquisitor — also qualifies, since both classes rely more on manipulation and, for the lack of better term, "magical" use of the Force. | |

The Warlock Lord, Brona, from Terry Brooks' The Sword of Shannara and its prequel First King of Shannara. He is actually described by Bremen to be things like "no longer a man" and "a dark creature." He is said to no longer have human thoughts, but to act completely on instinct. He has given himself to the darkness so completely, when he's in his tent, Risca tries to sneak inside and finish him off only to realize that... he's not there. He's become the darkness around him, and it gets to the point that it seems that even taking the form of a vague cloaked figure is somewhat of an annoyance to him and not actually necessary. He IS sorcery. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Many villains. Foremost being Kamek, but to an extent King Boo and Bowser himself (the original NES game had him using Black Magic to take over). As well as quite a few RPG villains that have traces of this (Fawful, Grodus and Smithy are Technopath variants, The Shadow Queen in Paper Mario 2 is this kind of thing played straight). | |

Legend of the Seeker has Darken Rahl, the Big Bad of the first season, who has some magical abilities, not that we see many of those. The one we see several times is his ability to do an Offscreen Teleportation during sword battles to stab the opponent in the back. He also has many sorcerers serving him, including a Wizard of the First Order named Giller. The Bad Future season finale also features Nicholas Rahl, the son of Darken Rahl and Kahlan Amnell, combining his parents abilities to become an even worse tyrant than his father. It's stated that the entire Rahl bloodline is full of examples of this trope. In fact, Darken's father Panis is actually a relatively mild example (especially compared to his son), whose main on-screen villainy comes from a Bed Trick (to produce Richard to rival Darken) and killing Zedd's father (which he may or may not have deserved for trying to kill baby Darken). | |

The locals think he's a fiend or a demon. Dengel enslaved a community to his final lair in Ceiha using magic that bound their souls to their flesh. He forced them to serve him while he researched greater and stronger magic in order to take revenge on his enemies. |

Gallian in In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale. Interestingly, the king's own magus Merick is surprised that Gallian has any magic at all, as a magus's power comes from serving a king. However, Gallian has managed to find a loophole. He has named himself the king of the beastly Krug (after magically uplifting them) and, thus, serves himself. It's implied that only a twisted mind like Gallian's could have accepted this enough to allow this to work. | |

The most dangerous and powerful probably being Thoth-Amon. He turns up by name and fearsome reputation in several Conan tales, and although Conan faces several of his dooms by chance and the character himself is met in "The Phoenix on the Sword", the very first Conan story, he and Conan never directly encounter one another in Howard's stories, although he is a common antagonist in later derived works. | |

The Wheel of Time: Any Shadow-affiliated channeler qualifies, the most infamous of these being the thirteen Forsaken imprisoned with the Dark One at Shayol Ghul. Of the Forsaken, Ishamael/Moridin is the most powerful and feared, and one of the few able to access the Dark One's own form of magic, the True Power, which is extremely addictive and can cause madness. Non-Forsaken channelers who serve the Dark One use the title "dreadlord"; they're not as powerful or totally evil as their superiors, but still nasty pieces of work especially Mazrim Taim, who eventually gets promoted to the Forsaken for his efforts. Recurring villain Padan Fain is not a channeler, but after merging with a malevolent spirit known as Mordeth he acquired access to some other form of dark power that allowed him a number of nasty tricks, including infecting others with madness, summoning killer fog, and reanimating the dead as his mindless drones. Before long, though, he's no longer really human as much as a collection of dark powers (barely) contained in a human body. |

The Elder Scrolls: The Elder Scrolls: Arena: The Big Bad Jagar Tharn acted as an Evil Chancellor to Emperor Uriel Septim VII. Tharn trapped him within a pocket realm of Oblivion and usurped his position for 10 years. Naturally, it is up to the Player Character to stop him and restore the rightful emperor. Mannimarco, the King of Worms, who appears in Daggerfall, Oblivion, and Online. Cold, cruel, and ruthless, the powerful Necromancer had been reigning terror in Tamriel since the 2nd Era and has been a constant threat to the Mages Guild before being "killed" in the 3rd Era. He was the "world's first of the undying liches", a step taken toward his desired goal of becoming a god. As a result of one of Daggerfall's Multiple Endings, which were all canonically merged as the "Warp in the West" event, he as a separate being (the God of Worms), lives on as a divine entity (but is considered distinct from the Mannimarco who is killed in Oblivion.) In Morrowind, Dunmeri Great House Telvanni is a Magocracy that specifically appeals to Evil Sorcerer types. Might Makes Right is an official policy within the House, and Klingon Promotion is an official means of advancement. Strangely enough, not very many of its upper echelon members seem to be outright evil, though all are at least somewhat morally corrupt and several are completely insane. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: Arondil the Necromancer is a perverted creep who was exiled from Dawnstar because he became a Stalker with a Crush to the village's milkmaids. He went into hiding in some nearby ruins to perform his practices in secret, and when one of the adventurous girls went exploring in the ruins he killed her and raised her as a thrall to sleep with her. Now he sends undead draugr to capture Dawnstar's women and bring them back to Yngvild to create his own undead harem. If you ever go into Yngvild, please do waste him. The Big Bad of the Dragonborn DLC, Lord Miraak, is an extremely powerful magical Dragon Priest and is the first Dragonborn himself able to give the player a taste of their own Super-Scream medicine. The irony of him of being a sorcerer is that he's actually a Nord, a race that mostly Does Not Like Magic on principle. Although as explained by the lore, ancient Nords like Miraak (especially their Atmorans ancestors) used magic all the time, it just fell out of practise by Nords in the modern times where the games take place. |

The sinister and power-hungry Euron Greyjoy in A Song of Ice and Fire, whose secret arcane knowledge and ominous presence frighten his enemies and subjects alike. The priestess Melisandre, who assassinates her enemies with spirit children that live inside her womb, is another, possibly more frightening example. | |

Devil May Cry has a few of these who use demonic Black Magic to ice skate up hill and try become a God of Evil in the demon world. Devil May Cry 2: Arius, one of the main antagonists, is a great sorcerer whose magic allows to fight a powerful Half-Human Hybrid Lightning Bruiser like Dante and summon great monsters, teleport and create magical barriers. Although similar to the Saruman and Sauron example, he's still just one strong wizard trying be a god and gets overshadowed by the true antagonist Argosax, a Demon Lord who rivaled Mundus and Dante's father Sparda. Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening: Arkham is another human sorcerer who desired to have the power of a demon so sacrificed his loving wife Kalina Ann in ritual to become a demon, but messed up and only gained a Monster Clown Superpowered Evil Side Jester. He spends the rest of the game, attempting to gain the power of Sparda and is even able to fight and overpower both half-demon boys Dante and Vergil as well as his own Action Girl daughter Lady whose blood he uses to open the demon world. Similar to Arius however, he soon becomes a secondary threat to real Big Bad (in this case Vergil) by the end since he can’t properly utilise the power of Force Edge and eventually devolves into a gooey monster before getting his ass kicked out of the demon world by Dante and Vergil. Devil May Cry 4: Agnus is a Science Wizard example having studied the demon world and using Yamato was able to be a Mook Maker and is able to open the Hell Gate. He’s also powerful enough to fight Dante and Nero despite his feigned Dirty Coward behaviour. Zigzagged with Vergil himself. Despite having vast demonic power like the usual evil sorcerer able to imbue his demonic power into objects to augment them, generate barriers, teleport and cut through reality itself. He generally Fights Like a Normal compared to others listed here with his Katana Yamato and more often just uses his demonic powers to create a Storm of Blades. Ironically his good half V from Devil May Cry 5 is more like the standard wizard whilst his Superpowered Evil Side Urzien is pretty much a God of Evil. |

Almost every wielder of Free Magic or necromancy in the Old Kingdom, as while Free Magic isn't "evil", exactly, it's a very chaotic and destructive power that tends to induce unpleasant effects such as madness in its wielders; the necromancer Hedge is the most prominent Free Magic sorcerer in the books (and perhaps incidentally, wielders of this kind of magic are almost always called sorcerers, in contrast to those who use Charter Magic, who are usually called mages). This trope also applies to the magic-using Greater Dead, such as Kerrigor or Chlorr of the Mask. | |

Jujutsu Kaisen: While the users of the local variant of Functional Magic are known as Jujutsu Sorcerers, those who break the laws of Jujutsu society in some way –- usually, but not always, for nefarious reasons –- earn the moniker of Curse Users. The distinction is largely "legal", since both categories have the same types of powers and are bound by the same supernatural rules, and Sorcerers can and do become Curse Users from time to time. Among these, there are a few noteworthy examples: From the Volume 0 prequel, Suguru Geto serves as the main antagonist, being a Special Grade Curse User who used to be a Sorcerer. He has an ideology revolving around Fantastic Racism which proclaims non-sorcerers (normal humans) ought to be exterminated and/or enslaved to allow for the superior men (Sorcerers) to evolve and become the natural next step in human evolution. To do this, he gathered a small cabal of loyal Curse Users and an absolutely massive army of Cursed Spirits enslaved through his Technique, Cursed Spirit Manipulation. Ryomen Sukuna, the secondary Big Bad of the main series, was the most powerful Curse User a millennium ago, at the height of Jujutsu sorcery during the Heian era, earning the title of "the King of Curses". Eventually, he died and rose again as an Imaginary Vengeful Spirit, before being defeated and his power and soul sealed into his twenty fingers. Unlike Geto, who is a Manipulative Bastard with ultimately noble (if extreme) intentions, Sukuna lives only for violence, bloodshed and his own amusement stemming from such, having led a lonely life of wanton slaughter and cannibalism prior to his sealing. He even prefers Good Old Fisticuffs to using his supremely powerful Techniques in combat, though in terms of Jujutsu talent and understanding, he remains near-unrivalled. Kenjaku, the Sorcerer currently inhabiting Suguru Geto’s body, serves as the series’ main antagonist and the Man Behind the Man for most other villains and events. In fact, he fits this trope so well that, during one of his lifetimes, he earned himself the title of “the evilest Sorcerer in history�. Being at least a millennium old, he survived the centuries by body-snatching corpses with his Innate Technique, which allows him to transplant his brain into others and access the bodies’ memories, Cursed Energy and Innate Techniques. He also just so happens to be a Mad Scientist and Evilutionary Biologist with a rather amoral approach to his experiments. Combining his supreme insight into Jujutsu with a powerful cheat technique and penchant for manipulation make Kenjaku one of the most classic examples of the trope |

Wagnard from Record of Lodoss War. He starts off as a normal man who's just a little too eager to gain arcane knowledge, but decades of dealing with the forces of darkness eventually turn him into a fiendish figure with pointed ears and claws. The wizard Groder edges on this trope since he ostensibly serves Wagnard, but he's more of a sympathetic Anti-Villain due to his loyalty to Ashram. Two minor characters, the evil cleric Gaberra and dark elf shaman Astar, also fit the bill. | |

Lim-Dûl was followed shortly after by Heidar of Rimewind, a mad ice wizard who wanted to return the world to a second Ice Age. Lord Dralnu, the Lich-Lord of Urborg, a zombie wizard with whom the forces of good were forced to ally against the invading Phyrexians. Memnarch, an evil artificial being with powerful magical abilities. Virot Maglan, the Cabal Patriarch, who runs a sorcerous mafia. The Big Bad Nicol Bolas is an Evil Sorcerer Dragon. He is the oldest and the last of the Elder Dragons in a setting where dragons become more powerful and dangerous with age. While he was originally represented in-game as an "ordinary" legend type creature card (with a special ability that has him Mind Rape the opponent instead of dealing damage), he is now a planeswalker. As in a Physical God. |

Avshar the wizard-prince of Yezd from The Videssos Cycle is an exceptionally powerful sorcerer and Magic Knight and the Dragon-in-Chief of the empire he allegedly serves. He's a vicious sadist who worships Skotos and is feared by allies and enemies alike, and always conceals his face behind a veil because he's Really 700 Years Old and suffers from Age Without Youth. Near the end of the series, he graduates to Sorcerous Overlord when he overthrows his "master", Khagan Wulghash, and takes over as overlord of the Yezda empire. It ultimately takes getting Dragged Off to Hell to stop him. | |

Neverwinter Nights: A number of examples, set in the Forgotten Realms tabletop setting: Shadows of Undrentide: J'Nah is a wicked elven sorceress hired to sack the village of Hilltop and assassinate the player's mentor, the wizard Drogan. J'Nah is revealed to be a half-demon daemonfey as well, while her shadowy employer turns out to be Heurodis, a far more powerful and mage who once apprenticed under one of the few survivors of the ancient empire of Netheril, and who now seeks to reclaim its lost glory so that she can Take Over the World. Hordes of the Underdark: In something of a cameo appearance, the first chapter sees the player descend into the dungeon of Undermountain, personal playground of the mad archmage Halaster Blackcloak, a nigh-endless, ever-shifting maze stocked with monsters and traps. After freeing the mage from his drow captors, Halaster "rewards" them by placing a Geas on them that compels them to slay the newly risen Valsharess (queen or empress) of the drow, playing no further role in the story. |

In Morrowind, Dunmeri Great House Telvanni is a Magocracy that specifically appeals to Evil Sorcerer types. Might Makes Right is an official policy within the House, and Klingon Promotion is an official means of advancement. Strangely enough, not very many of its upper echelon members seem to be outright evil, though all are at least somewhat morally corrupt and several are completely insane. | |

Stranger Things Season 4 Big Bad has Vecna christened after Lich of Dungeons & Dragons who is a Humanoid Abomination who “curses� troubled teens as a Freddy Krueger-esque monstrous Dream Walker. In actuality he is Henry Creel a human mutant with Psychic Powers, who was used a progenitor in Department of Energy to develop more psychic children such as Eleven, although by the time Eleven has banished him to Upside Down due to his Beware the Superman behaviour he isn’t remotely human anymore and is closest equivalent to an actual evil sorcerer within the relatively realistic Stranger Things universe. | |

Films based off Sinbad the Sailor usually have one, especially those produced by (and Starring Special Effects of) Ray Harryhausen. Evil Chancellor Jaffar in Sinbad of the Seven Seas commands powerful dark magic and uses it to usurp the caliph's throne. His ally Soukra is also described as one, though this remains an Informed Ability. The 7th Voyage of Sinbad has Sokurah, who shrinks the female lead, turns a Bedlah Babe into a dancing snake woman and controls a chained dragon at the end. Outside of being played with much gusto by Tom Baker (which landed him his most iconic role later on), Koura from The Golden Voyage of Sinbad ages anytime he casts a spell. The longer the spell the more he ages (closing a city's gate gives him wrinkles on his hands, animating the figurehead of Sinbad's ship for five minutes turns him into an old man). It's worth doing it all since the prize of The Quest includes a Fountain of Youth. Zenobia from Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger. She turned a prince into a baboon with her Forced Transformation potion, she can create human-size flesh golem mooks and she has her own magic-powered clockwork minotaur-shaped golem. |

Warhammer 40,000: Lots of people, since all the factions are mostly evil, and most of them use sorcery to some extent. Chaos Space Marine sorcerers are the most glaring example, being seven foot tall genetically engineered warriors in power armour, AND having the protection of evil gods, and they hate everybody and want unlimited power. However, they pay a price, suffering ever-increasing madness and horrible mutations such as extra limbs, heads, eyes inside their mouths, etc. | |

Robin of Sherwood had two successive ones as recurring villains. Notable for avoiding Suspiciously Similar Substitute and making them very different characters in terms of personality, background, and magical style. Baron de Belleme, an icy Satanist Norman aristocrat with Hermetic powers and a tendency to brainwash people, who actively used magic to fight his enemies and sought the limelight at every opportunity. Gulnar, a deranged, giggly, disheveled, Welsh pagan shaman, who preferred to raise undead or magical creatures to use as his mooks, liked to hide in the background of events, and tended to "flight" rather than "fight" reactions when things started to go wrong. |

Child of the Storm has a number: The most prominent examples are Voldemort and Gravemoss, the latter a specialist Necromancer and terrifyingly dangerous even before he got hold of the Darkhold. Pretty much anyone else who uses Dark Magic is this, owing to its corruptive nature. Grindelwald — who apparently did a number of deals to amp himself to power levels generally described (by Loki, who would know) as 'god-like'. Strange stripped him of most of this power, flattening most of Berlin in the process, and left him and Dumbledore to fight on more even terms. Kemmler, a mortal wandless Necromancer of immense power and evil who returned from the grave so often his coffin should have had a revolving lid. He engineered World War I to get raw material for his work, then popped up again during World War II, reanimating mass graves under Grindelwald's command. He was finally destroyed in 1962, triggering the Buin Zahra earthquake as a side-effect, killing over 12,000 people. Baron Mordo, in this canon a wayward apprentice of Doctor Strange, and one of considerable power. Doctor Doom might be this — no one's quite sure if he actually uses dark magic or not, but the aforementioned Mordo is his teacher... |

The evil magician is the go-to antagonist for the titular protagonist of the Conan the Barbarian stories by Robert E. Howard. It serves to contrast with Conan, who is the Trope Codifier for Barbarian Hero and a Badass Normal who triumphs through both mental and physical mastery. Thulsa Doom from the Kull stories by Robert E. Howard. Thulsa Doom was also used as the villain of the Conan the Barbarian (1982) movie. Thugra Khotan in the Conan story "Black Colossus", who also goes by the name of Natohk. Tsotha-Lanti from "The Scarlet Citadel" and Yara from "The Tower of the Elephant" also qualify. Nabonidus from "Rogues in the House", however, is more a clockwork-technology using Mad Scientist. The most dangerous and powerful probably being Thoth-Amon. He turns up by name and fearsome reputation in several Conan tales, and although Conan faces several of his dooms by chance and the character himself is met in "The Phoenix on the Sword", the very first Conan story, he and Conan never directly encounter one another in Howard's stories, although he is a common antagonist in later derived works. Salome from "A Witch Shall Be Born". In The Hour of the Dragon, Xaltotun. He scares even his own allies into stealing his Artifact of Doom. There's a reason why Robert E. Howard was the trope maker for Sword and Sorcery — and why "sorcery" got put in the title. |

Turok and Rumina from The Adventures of Sinbad. Turok is an evil sorcerer that is featured in the first two episodes, and the season one finale. Rumina is the daughter of Turok and the main villain of the first season. She loves Sinbad, but hates him for murdering her father. Rumina is an expert in black magic, which is easy to learn compared to white magic. Rumina is also obsessed with killing Maeve, something she never manages to accomplish. In the planned third season, Rumina would have made her return, and it was to be revealed she and Bryn were sisters. | |

Superman's enemy Lord Satanis is an extremely powerful, power-hungry and evil sorcerer. In Two for the Death of One, he makes a pact with the Devil himself, kills innocent people because they were kind to him, enslaves a whole village just because he can, and duels with his wife Syrene -another mighty and despicable sorceress herself- over a source of magic power which would let him gain omnipotence and become humankind's supreme ruler. | |

The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids: The Dark Lords of Shenanig, a centuries-old dynasty of proudly evil sorcerers whose magic is powered by The Power of Hate. The line culminates in Emperor Steer, who is both the most powerful and the most unstable holder of the title in recorded history, much unlike his predecessor Lord Nefarious, a Noble Demon who was "a good ruler — albeit not a good man". Mandragora, Pythe's Arch-Enemy, is an alchemist who went mad in his quest for ultimate enlightenment, and has also used other schools of magic to achieve his ends, including demon-summoning. |

Faria: The Big Bad is a nameless Wizard who was formerly a Sealed Evil in a Can. This Wizard has two horns and a scarlet body, though he otherwise doesn't look much like a Big Red Devil. He magically disguises himself to obtain the King's scrolls that were used to subdue him long ago, and uses them to turn into a dragon. His evil magic is also responsible for transforming all men in the player character's kingdom into women. | |

Nex, Geb, Tar-Barphon, Karzoug and six other Runelords, Adivion Adrissant, The Splatter Man, Arazni, Areelu Vorlesh, Vordakai, and dozens more are in the setting.

Meeks from the Magic Kingdom of Landover series. Meeks is the half-brother of Questor, and the one responsible for selling Ben the magic kingdom. He appears as a grizzled old man missing his right arm, and is in fact a very powerful wizard. Meeks came into possession of the medallion that identifies the kings of Landover and developed a scheme to repeatedly sell the kingdom with it. A buyer would purchase the medallion for access to Landover, and then when the victim either abandoned the kingship as too difficult or was killed, Meeks would retrieve the medallion and re-sell the kingdom | |

Profion from the Dungeons & Dragons (2000) movie. He is an evil Mage, as well as a tyrant who greatly opposed Commoners.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Mayor Richard Wilkins III and Ethan Rayne. And there are several hints that Giles used to be one as well. Ethan frequently remarks that he never got even close to his old friend in both power and depravity. In Season 8 of Buffy (which crosses over with Fray) it is revealed that Willow will eventually become a female version in the distant future. She is unaware of this, though she tries to stay away from black magic to prevent this. The Master is one, though his magical abilities are more pronounced in supplementary material than the actual series. |

Mannimarco, the King of Worms, who appears in Daggerfall, Oblivion, and Online. Cold, cruel, and ruthless, the powerful Necromancer had been reigning terror in Tamriel since the 2nd Era and has been a constant threat to the Mages Guild before being "killed" in the 3rd Era. He was the "world's first of the undying liches", a step taken toward his desired goal of becoming a god. As a result of one of Daggerfall's Multiple Endings, which were all canonically merged as the "Warp in the West" event, he as a separate being (the God of Worms), lives on as a divine entity (but is considered distinct from the Mannimarco who is killed in Oblivion.) | |

Unknown Armies plays with this trope. Magic is not inherently evil, but it draws peoples whose values are so alien to normal that they can't really be expected to uphold normal human ethics. As a consequence, this trope shows up, but much less than you expect from a modern horror game. When one adept gets power from subverting their sexuality to a porn star, another from having money (not using it, just having it), and a third from collecting (but not studying) old books, you can't expect these people to be terribly sane, can you? | |

Her goal is to compress time so that all creation would be centered around her, thus making her a goddess to reshape reality as she sees fit. Adel is also one as well. We don't get to know much about her and in the fight against her, she says nothing. But you do find out small bits of info about her. |

Baldur's Gate: Jon Irenicus, Big Bad of Shadowns of Amn. Evil by reason of having no soul and a resultant fascination with playing around with innards. Although at one point he was just your regular "driven by overpassionate love and misplaced pride" sort of evil. You could have some understanding for his situation, if he wasn't so smug about his superiority. You WILL hate him. Edwin Odesseiron wishes he were an evil sorcerer. His inexperience, social ineptitude, relentless pettiness, and massive hubris make him a rather hapless, pitiable figure despite his tremendous magical talent. The Updated Re-release has the drow Baeloth, Big Bad of the separate Black Pits campaign and Secret Character in the main campaign, who promotes Evil Is Hammy to an art form. |

Parodied in Which Witch?, where Arriman is a very dark, very evil sorcerer, but his evil acts are more of a Poke the Poodle. It's a children's book, so he obviously can't be too evil. Played a bit straighter with one of the witches, who is more powerful than Arriman himself, and wears a necklace made out of the teeth of her deceased husbands. (Of one, they never found a body, but a bald werewolf with milky blue eyes appeared after he went missing ...) | |

Feng Shui: The 69 AD juncture is ruled by the Eaters of the Lotus, a sinister cabal of evil eunuch sorcerers and their human and demonic servants. The Four Monarchs, banished to the Netherworld, are another example, except for the smartest one of the lot who's not so bad anymore for someone who ruled 1/4th of the world for centuries with absolute power. The best part about the price they pay? They either don't care or they think it's awesome. | |

Kingdom Hearts being a Square / Disney crossover, it's no surprise that plenty show up. Besides the traditional Disney examples (Maleficent, Ursula, Jafar), the overall Big Bad is an evil Magic Knight. "Ansem" / his Heartless incarnation leans most heavily on the magic side, relying on it and his Guardian to attack. | |

In The Hobbit, we're led to believe that the vile Necromancer is an Evil Sorcerer. In The Lord of the Rings, it's revealed that it's actually Sauron himself. | |
