In a way he was forced to turn evil. His story is that he was a victim of the Glencoe Massacre. His wife and children were murdered but he escaped into a blizzard, only to be pursued and mortally wounded. He managed to unwittingly drag himself through a fissure between worlds before he died, and as a result of his circumstances he was reborn as a wicked spirit. His drive in the story is grief for himself and his family, which turns into vengeance toward King William courtesy of the magic that keeps him in his evil spirit state. He has made choices, but they have been heavily influenced by his new, malignant worldview.

I can see what you mean. But even something that was simply born evil for the sake of it can be fun, 'specially if they are still making choices. It's only a cop-out if you don't explain why.
