Read "Kiss of the Enemy" by Ken Wolfe? Displays the effects of
a purification on a Draka. Here's a quote:
-----
Lafarge thought about this for some time. Minako just waited
silently. At length, Lafarge began to speak in a soft tone. "Before I
even entered the service, I was studying the early history of the Draka. I
wanted to understand what it was that had been allowed to drive my
ancestors from their home. One thing kept coming up again and again. It
was something they would always say to each other, back in the twentieth
century when they were just becoming a world power. They would say it in
public and private. It was like an obsession, they would recite it like a
mantra: 'we are few, and nobody loves us.' I think that pretty much sums
up the way the Draka dealt with the world. It was like the ultimate
expression of the paranoid position. Eat or be eaten. From that point on,
the story of the Draka became the story of a stomach. They were so afraid
of becoming prey, the only answer they could come up with was to become
predators. That was what shaped their destiny and their character. Once
they started changing themselves genetically, I think they lost whatever
remnants of free will they had left. They simply gave in to their all-
consuming, insatiable hunger. I'm not sure whether the Homo Drakensis of
my time even have a consciousness the way we understand it. At best maybe
it's an animal consciousness that drives their aggression. The rest is
just programming.
"Sailor Moon said that the Ginzuishou removes negative karma. I think
that if you remove all the negative karma from a Drakensis, all the
aggression, the hunger, the territoriality, the ruthlessness, all you've
got left is that original mantra. I think all that's left in Ingolfsson's
mind is: 'I am alone, and nobody loves me'."

Of course, since the Draka are f**king *saints* compared to Ikari
Gendou ...
