"He's actually evil" is not quite right. And he's not trying to wipe out humanity - people will do it more effectively... He's more like Woland in "Master and Margarita" or Goethes Mephistopheles. They can give you powers or options, but the choice is yours. Of course they will push you slightly - but only to see what will you choose. Will you resist temptation or that temptation will overpower you? And the fact is that the Outsider is not really that glad or happy to see that your *human* side win - ambitious,spiteful,revengeful as you kill everyone in your path. He has seen this many times. He apprieciates your  mercifulness at it's finest when(if) you spare Daud. He appreciates your willpower and your kindness - the best of you. That's not the Outsider who is evil. People are evil. The Outsider gave them his precious power - so much power but still even with such strength they can't get rid of their habits because old habits die hard. Even having such a potential they still prefer to use them to serve their poor interest and to they prefer to  live their pathetic lives as killers and executioners - just the way it was before they met Him. In the end you can't blame the mirror for your ugly face,you know.
