While it would be plausible to have evil characters who choose not to kill because of cowardice or respect for law, I think a desire to kill, or at the very least an amoral lack of concern with regard to killing in some form or other, are fundamental to evil as written. Any divergance from that as a standard, IMO, would need to be made clear by the DM.As for scrooge, in d&d terms, I'd see that as closer to Lawful Neutral than evil. In real-world terms I'd call it misguided, cruel or wrong, but not evil. OTOH, some religious viewpoints could bring his actions into the realm of evil.</blockquote>
