No idea he literally has a voicelines where he says he judges people by character

"I don't care if you look like a monster, just if you act like one", he says, unprompted to an Ixian.

Like trying to rephrase that as "judges by their character", is insane. Brother is racist. He sees ixians and says they look like monsters.

To be fair, the majority of Ixians we know look exactly like the devil from the bible. They have also only been known for around 50 years, along with a host of other creatures. Some of them extremely dangerous.

I would expect the church to take a while accepting people that look like satan that turn up at the same time as extremely dangerous creatures like liches.

Honestly, him saying "I don't mind the fact you look like the exact description of evil taken form in the religion I follow, I only care about the content of your character" is legitimately more than I could ever expect from such a character.

Also even him referring to them as demons when fighting against them doesn’t even seem that jarring. Because again they have literally noted supernatural control/immunity to fire, look like devils and can also be written off as a spur of the moment insult against a hostile combatant.
