Zurcon is about Annihilation or such. Apparently he was 'acting' out that part of the role that were you were watching(see deaths?). Just because you personally didnt witness the attemps of the "squib?" doesnt mean they were not there.

I would agree that the things the character(role wise would do) would cause him not be 'neutral' align. But have a inherent 'red' aura. But the character would function its different aspects as he did all along. Doing squib/hand stuff. That should be have been noted when reading the role and an appropriate award given(maybe turned him evil and give him some other boons and let him work for his empowerement early on) rather than give him full-empowerment as the reward and shaft him later(which you arugably said in your beginning post was expected).
