Wow ! I had never considered the idea of immortality for humans, but it does make a lot of sense as both a utopic characteristic of a sin-less world, and a way to perpetually torment the sinners. I knew this prompt could spark a lot of concepts, but the character of Alex is really something surprising, and kind of terrifying, as a very violent Lawful Evil character, like it was some hidden part of the good man he had been before. I like it a lot.

The most evil man can do is not done by those who wish to harm others for the sake of harming them.

It is done by those who truly believe that their actions are done for the greater good. That any cost is justified because of that greater good.

Thus, those who are truly convinced that they know what is best are some of the most dangerous people on earth.
