User blog comment:Verminfate/Essay: Redwall's most controversial character..... Veil/@comment-68.75.29.185-20091123222135

I think that whether one is good or evil is not determined not solely how much good or evil that one does. It is determined how that person wishes to live; beit justly and righteous, or caniving and selfish. Veil's evil deeds definitely did out way his good, however if he was ready to give everything he had for the life one that never doubted the goodness of his heart...I'd say he was wasn't just good, he was a hero.
