How about someone who is evil just for kicks? Or they do evil because they believe themselves indebted to someone in authority, and have become devoted on a nearly sycophantic level and developed a taste for the darkness?
I have an alt who fits the above. After being very ill, physically, for most of his life he was found, changed, and believes himself to have been saved. Without his physical ailment to hold him back, he has devoted himself wholly to the life and cause of the one who found him. At his core, he is lonely and fears being abandoned again, and thus fully dedicates himself to his master's favor.
He enjoys tormenting others and inflicting pain, there is no such thing as a swift death at his hands, and this is deliberate. Pain is life, and he is never more alive than when he is inflicting or receiving pain.
