Fallen angels and other insane celestials are generally evil. A good king is often wise and just, a tyrant who forces his people to live a certain way with (the threat of) violence is generally evil. It's the actions of a character that define it. Evil actions? Evil character. Or neutral at best, under circumstances where they resort to atrocities only when there is absolutely no other way, not just because this way is easier, and do loads of really good stuff on the side.
