Ok. But first I want to clarify:

Although Faithful Dunedain categorize all Numenoreans as light or dark, things are in reality a bit more complicated.

There are the "Faithful" Dunedain, decendants of the Elf-Friends. They hold a disdain for all other non-Elendili Numenoreans, labeling them "renegades" and "traitors."

There are the Mûlkerhil, or the followers of Melkor and the priesthood of Sauron, centered mostly in Umbar and in dark cults in the dark lands and the interior of the land. They are quite few, although intensely evil. These guys use Sauronic sorcery to enhance their lives, but have the appearance of a rotting corpse, kind of like the Mouth of Sauron, who was one of these.

And there are the Arûwani, or the Numenoreans who turned away from both the Faithful and the Mûlkerhil, adhering to the old Numenorean imperialistic policy, hating both the Valar and Melkor. These are the Ambaronans.
