The Black Riders were still men if wraiths and black magicians and vessels of Sauron's will.
But I think like all Men there would be ups and downs to their ablities and feelings,
their terror could def. be modulated or they would not be able to communicate w/ someone like Gamgee.
All the beings of M-E, like ourselves could 'put forth their power' when will or occasion demanded.
Aragorn at tims appeared more noble or full of power than at other times, there is no reason to think the Black Numenorean wringwraiths would not have had the ability to display their various powers at will.
