    Evil is utterly irrelevant. What matters is 'does the UCS think you're an enemy of creation.'

    ...so raksha should be on the list. It's probably for mechanical reasons (Holy would be too strong) that they aren't.

    He's as likely to be an monster as he is to be a saint, whichever works better in stopping things from messing with the natural order of Creation (note; Creation specifically, not the people living on it).

    Superman exercises restraint because that's the way he was raised and because he cares about humans. The UC was created to be the boss of everything except the Primordials, and he eventually overthrew them because he wanted to steal their cosmic pool table, an action that cost billions of mortals & gods their lives. I see him as a lot less reliable than Superman in terms of not using his supreme powers in the most efficient way.

    Raksha aren't evil though, technically their cruelty is the result of innocence, and from their point of view Creation is the evil one.
    But their point of view is irrelevant, because it's the UC's personal "People I Hate Because They Suck" list that determines whether something is a Creature of Darkness, and if every wimpy-ass ghost is a CoD, then so should be every Fae.

    He fears his fate too much, and his reward is small, who will not put it to the touch, to win or lose it all.
