I could be wrong though, I'm mostly basing this on the fact that most of the Lucavi you meet have been in possesion of people killed.

I don't feel there is enough evidence about Vayne's murder of his brothers though. We never did get to see what they were like. Though your other points are quite valid. The game does give the impression that Vayne's murder of his brothers was both completely unexpected and brutal. Bergan as well as Ba'Gammon are both characters who seem to have really no sense of good within them. While Penelo, and even Alma and Teta from Tactics can be thought as purely good.

As for Ramza, I think he's more complex than that though. His sense of justice was so strong, strong enough to make him have little thought in killing his eldest brother. If he was written to be truly good, he would have had more misgivings. I never got the impression Ramza wanted to kill him but I did feel Ramza knew his brother deserved it. That's why he didn't really hesitate.

I wonder, if Ramza had actually become aware of what Delita was doing to achieve his goal, if he would have tried to stop him, even if it meant killing him?

Another thing to think about. Is Marche a hero or a villain? Since we are discussing the morality of the series, we can't forget the character ho really sparks debates
Ramza would have tried to stop him, and maybe could have killed him, as he did with his brother, but just time will tell...

About Marche, I actually thought he is a villain with a reality complex and with moral. Everyone was happy with the new world, and with their new lives, but Marche wanted the real world back, even if destroying the other's lives was needed.

In reality, everyone was in a dream world, a lie, created by a child's desire, but seeing that Final Fantasy works around saving the world and sometimes the crystals, and seeing that Marche destroyed them and destroyed the world, he was a villain that attained his desire, but actually saving the world of a wonderful lie, even if the real world is hard and cruel.

But how can we learn to survive in live if we don't live the real world? Maybe the real world is more cruel, but that's what makes it more enjoyable .

Marche knew that a dream world made of lies and secret desires wasn't correct, and he wanted to go back to home, who can blame him?
