Ghost Roaster: Evil? [CLOSED]

I added a bit of info that Ghost Roaster might be considered the only "evil" Skylander on his wiki page but it got deleted twice and rather than getting into a huge edit war about something that is still sort of speculation, I decided instead to run it by other people to see what they thought. More sensible and plus it'll be a good way to analyze the character of my favorite Skylander, to see how different people interpret him and his motives.

Personally, I think he's still evil, his backstory has no signs or indication that he's reformed, unlike Hex and Cynder. Plus, there's a suspicious lack of any sort of heroic deads. Again, unlike Hex and Cynder.

Sure, that's that whole "only eating evil ghosts" thing, but that's always paired with the fact that Eon specifically told him he'd be kept around if he did that.

He looks evil but he eats ghosts (bad ghosts / bad guys). He's a good guy with attitude. Scaring bad guys ain't bad.

His a token evil teammate, Eon thought it would be better having him on his side then against and that most people generally do not want to cross him.

Hex And Cynder despite being feared seem to get along well with most of the other skylanders *The tall tales trailer as well as Hex and everyone laughing when Trigger's gun blasted her rump*

That's actually an interesting way to look at it. It's simply his nature to eat ghosts, he can't help it. Luckily, Eon gave him proper direction if that was the case.

I don't think he's a good guy, per se, in the sticker book, it's said he wanted to turn Hex into a hamburger.

Yes, that's what I think. He's the token evil teammate. He's the guy you can't really trust but have around because he's so effective at what he does.

Nah,more of a Anti-Hero.As the Sticker Book bio suggests,Olav simply doesn't care if he's eating sentient ghosts,he just likes it and there wasn't anyone stopping him,since he just got punished for it after decimating a village.
As the others said,Eon simply noticed it'd be better to have Ghost Roaster on his side better than have an essential weapon against Undead against him. Considering how he never stops laughing ingame,Roaster might as well be completely crazy nowadays and just kill stuff he's ordered to.

Skylands!Cynder is mostly evil-looking for fun.In the Sticker Book profile,she vows to fight for good,and while not everyone trusts her,no other stories in the book show that she's done anything bad after being freed.

The thing about everyone mistrusting her seems a bit hazy as it seems most of the Skylanders do trust her, mostly in the tall tales trailer they seem pretty calm about her being there.

It seems more like the trust issue goes Cynder>Hex>Ghost Roaster

As said, she's reformed and fights for the good wholeheartedly. She only seems scary.

I haven't played as him, so not entirely sure, but I doubt he's evil.
