What exactly is a dark desire for a mahjarrat... Well other then Zaros
Heh. Well Sliske started taking his boredom out on others for instance:
When we followed Sliske and Duke Ceres through the gates of Kharid-et and turned our back on Icthlarin and the Menaphites we could not imagine what would become of us. We had spent only a few years among the Menaphite army, all of it on campaign, with ceaseless fighting against the Zarosian legions. Once we turned to Zaros, those of us who survived that final disastrous battle moved to the empire and were granted positions of power and authority within it by our new lord. The comfort and luxury of this new life was a world away from scratching out existence on Freneskae, and some of us were better able to cope than others.
Sliske, in particular, had always been playful, but the relative decadence of human society and near limitless power of our new positions provided an avenue for the very worst of his ***********. Senntisten had a playhouse, originally founded by C**lonians hundreds of years ago but largely run by and for humans in our time. Sliske wrote and performed a play for the elite of Senntisten: the more urbane demons and the most powerful human merchants and bureaucrats. Before the play he took unwanted humans from the streets of the city, dressed them in brightly coloured costumes, and placed upon each a crude wooden mask. At his command the masks spoke aloud and controlled the movements of the players, compelling them to jerkily act and dance and mime his play like puppets, with the person behind the mask able only to watch his own actions.
As a grotesque gimmick, the players actually stabbed each other to death with their weapons at the play's ******. In one memorable showing, one of the players died - probably of some disease - in the middle of the performance, but the mask was able to animate his corpse as easily as his living body and the show went on.
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

The play was a hit with most of its audience and Sliske performed it a dozen times before growing bored and moving on to something else.
Those who disliked it dared not voice their concern for fear of social disgrace or becoming victim to the inquisition of the Praetorians. For myself, I kept quiet, but I worried greatly about the way this life was changing us, and I was sure some of the others felt the same way.
- Ralvash's memory
All that power and freedom in a densely populated city? It's no surprise some of them gorged themselves on what the Empire offered especially when you consider how they used to live. It was like a big party for some of them.
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

I doubt he can fly with those wings... They look so stupid
I can't stand them.
I believe they said in a BoL Q&A that he can fly with them.

He wants the world to fall to mortals, how's that "limiting your potential?"
With some "checks and balances" i.e. making sure nobody gets too strong for his liking.

It's better than what the other gods have in mind. What's their plan? Oh yeah, they don't have one. A plan with little chance of succeeding is better than no plan.
Well we have two plans so far.
Zaros: Wake them up, make them angry, and then try bossing them around.
Seren: Never let them wake up.
See, it's not so much that his plan has little chance of success...more that it has a high chance of blowing up in our faces. Seren's plan has little chance of success as well. I mean, we're talking about an eternity. Somewhere down the line, we're gonna fail. But at least with Seren's plan, we have eons to learn more and think of something better.

He isn't good at fighting? He's a tier 2 god, he's stronger than all the other gods (excluding elders of course) combined; he can kick their ass six ways to Sunday.
He has raw power, yes, but he doesn't have skill. That's why he lost to Zamorak.

He helped the vampyres create a society, without him, they'd still be savages, ruled by their thirst.
Whereas now they're overpopulated sadists ruled by their thirst

The Mahjarrat race flourished under Zaros.
The Mahjarrat tribe is a shell of its former self. He ruined their culture and destroyed their identity.

Mahjarrat "tribe"? What was once 500, with 400 killed off in a single act, and about 8 remaining, it's time we start referring to them as
an endangered species
