What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- Before discovering The Little People, Craig was an arrogant egotist who wanted to suck in the praise without doing much work.
- When finding the race of Little People, Craig immediately gains a god complex as he wants to rule them as a god, and forces the species to worship and build monuments to him, threatening all their lives to make them submit and, to further toy with them, smashes sections of the civilizations, massacring countless.
- When Fletcher attempts to get him off the planet by fixing the ship, Craig threatens to kill him to force him off on his own, content spending the rest of his life terrorizing the little People, and he immediately throws a rock into the middle of the civilization, laughing at their screaming.
- While The Little People are unseen, we see their terror as we hear their screams, see tiny homes being destroyed and get the feeling of the massive lives lost, with Fletcher himself horrified at what Peter has done.
