What I have seen is as follows:
1) Associates with Tarquin (evil)
2) Is certainly complicit in Tarquin's schemes, which no doubt meant the death of the original Tyrinar (evil)
2) Attempted to feed innocent Elan to a dragon (evil)
3) Attempted to vamp Belkar (evil)
4) Drinks only the blood of condemned criminals (not-evil) Actually, this is Lawful, and provides no evidence on the good-evil scale
5) Refused to assault Mister Scruffy as he has no quarrel with him (not evil) Pragmatic. Again, no evidence on the good-evil scale. Merely not murdering someone at random doesn't make one non-evil
6) Has not initiated any of Tarquin's gratuitously evil acts on panel (such as the light show) nor has he assisted Tarquin in them. He has not , however, attempted to stop Tarquin from doing so (evil).
7) Has explained to Durkon that he finds certain things distasteful (not evil).
8) Assisted an LG cleric with spell research specifically useful against the undead (not evil).
On the basis of on-panel evidence, I believe the strongest argument is for a low-end evil in the <10 kilonazi range. The second strongest argument is for a dark gray neutral.
