@Eratas
Yeah. I read your drafts. Victor seems to be a sociopath, though, not a psychopath. Victor is violent, impulsive, easily agitated, and quick to display anger. He is very likely to spontaneously act out in inappropriate ways (Kicking people of cliffs while they're tied to cinder blocks). All of these are sociopathic traits. But he doesn't see to have a shred of empathy or a single person he emotionally connects with... so hybrid case, perhaps? He is very realistically depicted as a sociopath, more so than my depiction of Lukasz, since I took artistic liberty in forming his motive. @Zero: Are the villains bound by that rule too? Because if not, then there is no point for the heroes to keep that rule either.

@ Greedy - Irish, the viewpoint character, is sociopathic as well to a degree. He doesn't seem to care about death, killing, or conventional morality. Another factor is willingness to do something futile just to satisfy himself.

Well, now that I think of it... Irish is rather sociopathic. Sensation-seeking is a rather potent indicator of psychopathy / sociopathy, after all. Lack of revulsion to death and killing may be a sociopathic trait, but it can also be instilled professionalism (although you could argue that instilled professionalism in murder is pretty much a sociopathic influence).

Which is pointless, no offense.
True, some of them are really fucked up (Laura, that means YOU) but in essence, it's still just that, lighthearted high school comedy. That means no protagonist will kill anyone, and even IF there's one or two case, it will be justified, or heroes failed to save the villain. You expect this to take school day route? Go ahead, I have everything under my disposal to help you, gathered form all 1500 friggin pages of this very thread plus plenty of other sources.

That's more on losing reason due to the loss of a loved one. Flashbakcs later on show hat he was cheerful and idealistic even when he was imprisoned and abused so long as he had someone he cared for with him. Kinda like a chain to keep one sane.
Anyway, how do you know so much about psychology? Are you a college student? @ Senpai - Uh, I meant kill self defense. There's a difference, however small, between "killing" and "murdering".

@Eratas:
I'm not even in College yet. I'm still going through my Pre-IB Diploma Program. HL Physics and SL Psychology are just the two subjects I happen to take for my diploma... so right now I'm studying them like crazy to prepare myself for IB Diploma. So, no, no degrees, just research like hell, really. I can cite the sources I use, if you want. Anyway, got to sleep now. Good night, guys.

@ Eras
I was replying to greedy, but the point still stand. Self defense or not, a kill count is a kill count, just ask Kira 'Jesus' Yamato. The difference between the characters is their readiness, people such as Laura or Rin probably is ready for the time come that they WILL kill someone, accidentally or not. People like Ichika? Nay

@ Greedy - Nah, just happy to find someone to talk psych with
@ Senpai - That's what I meant You can't always follow the "Thou Shalt not Kill" rule, especially with Complete Monster's. Anyway, are you going to sleep? Nevermind, going to sleep myself.
