User blog:NerdWithAKeyboard/Pure Evil Villains Who Never Killed Anyone

Here is a list of some characters who have qualified as Pure Evil/Complete Monsters, but never took any lives. Some may have tried or have influenced others to do so, but no blood is on their hands.

'''Note: This is not an argument or a call to have these characters removed, it is simply informative and interesting. I also realize that in many cases, deaths are caused by their actions. In traditional court justice, yes, many of these would be labeled as murderers, but I'm focusing on characters that never took live with their own hands.'''

Shou Tucker
Many people hate this bastard for what he did to his wife, and especially what he did to his daughter Nina and dog Alexander, but while those things were horrible, their actual deaths are not on him. His wife, who he turned into a chimera, refused food (starving herself to death), and Nina/Alexander, who were fused into a hybrid chimera, were killed by Scar, not him. While his human/animal experiments may have been horrific, saddening, and even painful, Shou Tucker never actually took a life.

Steele
This bad doggie is quite the jerk; fighting for superiority and even sabotaging a mission to get medicine to sick children just so he can get all of the glory. While a power hungry womanizer, Steele never actually manages to kill anyone. He tries to kill protagonist Balto, but fails. It could be argued that he may have indirectly killed some kids by delaying the medicine's arrival, but this is never shown and it is assumed that most (if not all) the children survived.

Valak
Before we describe this one, let's address the elephant in the room: Yes, it is implied that Valak possessing the father is what caused the Amytiville killings. However, it is unknown if the father was driven mad by Valak and the house and performed the murders himself or if his body was truly being controlled by the demon itself. In either case, it was technically not Valak doing the killing. Valak's style is forcing others into murder and suicide, without doing any of the real killing himself unless he has to. And even then, he is stopped before he can take the lives of the Warrens or the girls. So as awesome and evil as Valak is, he technically hasn't killed anyone himself (that is until his upcoming spinoff movie comes out...)

Baron Kelvin
Baron Kelvin was admittedly a confusing villain in the Black Butler franchise, and was definitely hard to get a grasp on. His obsession with beauty, perfection, and the especially disturbing love for children made him an unsettling and disturbing foe for Sebastian and Ceil. Despite the numerous children who perished under his rule, he personally did not kill any of them. The children who ended up dead were either killed in freak accidents or by his cronies. Kelvin was the type of person who would feel killing children as a mark against their youthful perfection, and considering his obsession with that, was not up for any murder himself.
