When Belkar dies, will we see his afterlife

[Kish]

So, no one said "he hasn't changed in even the slightest," even what you're putting in quotes is at best a paraphrase (what you initially responded to was "No, Belkar is a sadistic monster and hasn't really stopped," if you bothered to scroll up and look at it), and you're beating on a strawman.

(I think there's an excellent chance Belkar will never murder an innocent or torture a captive again, though the fact that I expect him to die and stay dead within a few in-comic weeks is a significant part of the reason why, but let's not make arguments about what we think people meant when they said something different. If you think Belkar has stopped--that is, that if five minutes from now the group discovered that Greg and Xykon had annihilated each other, and Belkar wandered off on his own and never saw the rest of the Order again, he would never again choose to do anything that would earn the description "sadistic monster"--then you disagree with the person you responded to. If you don't believe that, then you don't.)
