It's not like he was a serial killer where you would have to be concerned about him randomly killing people in the group. He was only convicted of killing one person. That you know of. In that situation, you have zero knowledge of how many people he may actually have killed, or if he's ever going to kill again, you only know he did it once, which means he's certainly capable of it. One could argue that he only killed one person under very specific circumstances, but a) no one knows the circumstances because he doesn't talk about it, and b) if he cracked under pressure and killed someone, he (and all of you) are now under more pressure than anyone else has likely ever been. You're still left assuming he's a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. Especially because, based on your choices, he can easily have moments where he violently loses his temper - which just makes it seem even more likely that he might kill someone in the heat of the moment. Again, you're really only sympathetic towards him because he's the protagonist. You follow his viewpoint, see he's generally a good man, and identify with him because you're the only controlling him and making choices for him. But none of the other characters see him that way, and they are fully justified in mistrusting him, especially when they barely know him. Doubly so since, from their perspective, he's gone out of the way to hide his past rather than admit to it, so how can you trust him? --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
