Evbo from PVP Civilization is..fascinating in terms of morality and how he weighs the value of sentient life. This young man has, a frankly shocking amount of kindness and respect for those he deems to be worthy of it, especially for PVP Civilization. But will casually kill off side characters, regardless if they have threatened him or not. Sure, you could say that these deaths were necessary and a thing he just had to do to survive and get to the next layer.. But he is seemingly unbothered by the idea of taking lives. He is himself, scared of dying for the first part of the series, but then starts throwing himself into danger and having others kill him, not himself, but other people. For the first episode of the series, he is on the edge of death, scared of the marketplace and something must've happened that stuck with him in particular. Then that fear is gone, and with it, the pacifism he originally had in the series. He never killed someone until Tabi came along. Evbo cares a whole lot for his companions, going so far as to let them kill him without mercy, but cannot show the same level of empathy for people he just..runs into for the sole purpose of slaughter. Even when they actively flee from him, even when they pose zero threat to him as an immortal being, he still kills. This sole fact is why I personally don't think that Evbo is entirely innocent nor can be written off as being a complete victim, nobody is in this series. You have to kill to survive, descending down, down, further down into your own depravity. Relinquishing any morals that may be tying you down. He's almost there, but not quite enough to be on the same level as say, Tabi. This poses a new question. How low can he sink before he hits rock bottom?
