He is a tragic villain. He is not evil because he wants to be. He is evil because if he isn't, he will kill everything. By killing in limited amounts, he keeps himself from killing everything. The curse however confuses him causing him his thoughts to be jumbled at times. He is a victim of his ambitions. I wouldn't say he is good, but he isn't pure evil.
