Kha'Zix isn't evil.

Best KhaZix Void·Nov 27, 2015·1 votes·1,196 views

no record of killing or hurting people in-universe, or of any malicious activities at all that weren't simply for sustenance or improvement.
doesn't go on about despair or soul eating or torment like cho'gath, obv doesn't give a shit about that.
just wants to improve himself as a creature, zero ulterior motives.
zero interest in politics.

True Neutral, if not, Chaotic Neutral at most. I don't think he has any loyalties to any civilization in the void if there is any, he is just a product of it. he's a more matured/coherent version of kog'maw.

The thing with Kha'zix is that he is amoral. He wants to eat others to become stronger and I doubt that he'd be bound by any sort of morality. If it profits him to eat someone,then he would do it.

One could make a point about him being driven by instinct.I mean most void champs seem more like animals who are driven by the instinct to eat(or to disintegrate in order to learn in the case of Velkoz ),thus they aren't necessarily more evil than a lion who eats an antilope. The only exception to this might be Chogath ,but who knows,maybe that will change too once he gets updated. However Kha'zix seems kind of sadistic,so I'd say he is actually one of the few void champs who could be seen as really evil,but that is still open to interpretation.

I wouldn't call him sadistic, I don't think he takes joy in the killing so much as he does in the improvement part, hunting is just a means to an end, he gets his rush from evolving (or the thought of it) rather than the hunting. I think rather than not caring about what other people think, he just doesn't know any better. to him, there's eat and evolve, nothing else. I think mentally he's in a very immature place. He's not capable of understanding the feelings of other creatures or abstract concepts like morality, They'd just get in the way of what he's trying to accomplish. it takes more energy to acknowledge and disregard concepts like that than it is to just not be able to process them in the first place. He's an animal who can speak, basically. Kog'Maw but with better grasp on grammar.

The reason why I think that Kha'zix has a sadistic streak is because of his VO,I mean the quote "Die running." implies that he enjoys if his prey struggles,which is unnecessary cruelty

But then again cats aren't considered evil either,despite the fact that they play with their prey too,so that might be simply because of Kha's instincts.

There is also his joke about eating yordles for fun,but we can't be sure how serious that is.

In the end I'd say that kha'zix might be somewhere between true neutral(as in simply acting like an animal)and neutral evil(depending on how cruel he is while hunting),but we don't have enough lore about him to be really sure.

I don't know that anyone accused him of being "evil" in the first place.

Then again, most "evil" people don't think they are "evil". Evil is generally just considered to be "They want the opposite of what I want" or that their goals are mutually exclusive. For example, most of the Voidlings (Kog, Vel, etc) want to eat/consume/disintegrate everything, which is mutually exclusive to everyone else who wants to keep living.

There is generally a feeling that Void = Bad because they are seen as invaders, barbarians from another realm who came from another place and are bent on destroying "our" (the more human characters') way of life in their thirst for whatever it is they want. Because they cannot be reasoned with, they are considered evil, because if they got what they want, it directly hurts others.

Hurting doesn't authomatically make you bad, any carnivore would have been to arrest then.
Not caring =/= not doing.
Improvements in order to kill better preys.
I could have 0 interest in politics and go around killing ppl just for the fun of it.

Now, I'm not saying he is evil, he is just a dangerous guy. But your points are totally out of target.

"I ate an optimist once, but I couldn't keep him down." ..... And is the reason rengar has only one eye...

doesn't go on about despair or soul eating or torment like cho'gath, obv doesn't give a shit about that.

Just because they are emo... or soul hungry... doesn't mean they are evil... Evil DEFINED: profoundly immoral and malevolent. Worldly genocide is under that category...

just wants to improve himself as a creature, zero ulterior motives.

Through adaptation... devouring everything and evolving so that they are highest point in the food chain

zero interest in politics.

Most evil people don't care about politics and worry about killing and getting stronger...

If you don't realize... is tasked with bringing the end of the word with the void Quote from malzahar ""The land may melt, the sea may swell, the sky may fall... but they will come!"

Void creatures want to destroy the world....

It's a joke, Rengar attacked him first.

Just because they are emo... or soul hungry... doesn't mean they are evil... Evil DEFINED: profoundly immoral and malevolent.

"I will feast upon your soul." "Death is not the end for you ,for eternity, you are mine." sounds pretty malevolent to me.

also, please don't try to tell me Kha'Zix is evil and cho'gath isn't the bastard son of malebogia and Cthulhu

Through adaptation... devouring everything and evolving so that they are highest point in the food chain

That's a pretty pure motive, he doesn't do it out of malice, he does it because that's what he does, it's no different than a lion killing a gazelle or a tiger killing a boar, there's just the stipulation that he improves himself based on what he's killed.

Most evil people don't care about politics and worry about killing and getting stronger...

evil people can use politics to game the systems that apply to them, If we're using traditional definitions of Evil: Gangplank, Sauron and the Númenóreans, etc.

Kha'Zix doesn't do anything

If you don't realize... is tasked with bringing the end of the word with the void Quote from malzahar ""The land may melt, the sea may swell, the sky may fall... but they will come!"

Void creatures want to destroy the world....

again, Kha'Zix has zero relations with whatever Malzahar is trying to do, Look at Vel'Koz, he obliterated other voidborn simply for getting in his way at the ruins of urtistan, and Rek'Sai isn't even sentient.

I doubt he would want to destroy the world at all, what would be the point in becoming the apex predator of a place that's getting obliterated anyway? He's either entirely against malzahar's plans or he's ignorant of them.

None of the voidlings are evil, actually, no one is evil. Evil, good, neutral, are just merely temporary concepts that change depending on the point of view. The voidlings seems to suffer from an itch, something that forces them to eat, devour, erase. Just like Vel'Koz, he is hungry for knowledge, which can only be acquired through disintegration.

If it is a natural thing, something the itches them, that urges since their moment of birth, it is just only natural. Just like how modern humans ate the Neanderthals. There was no evil, just hunger and wanted to be a stronger species. We call this, natural selection.

On the alignment chart, Kaz would be closer to Neutral Evil, along with pretty much all of the voidborne. They are entirely self-interested and will hurt whoever they must to get what they want. The main difference between him and other voidborne like Cho'gath and Kog'maw is that he's much more selective in what he consumes since it directly affects his evolution.
