Quite simply, the Rings of Power slowly transformed these Nine from being men into being wraiths- neither living nor dead, and completely enslaved to the will of Sauron. It's one of the effects of Rings of Power on Men and Hobbits- think about what the One Ring did to Gollum, and was doing to Bilbo ("I feel thin, stretched out- like butter scraped over too much bread") and remember that the Nine Rings had been at work on the Nazgul since the Second Age.

The only one I know anything about, was Khamûl who was a Black Easterling. Other than that, I think they were once powerful kings and sorcerers among Men.
