Generally I think of three core reasons character to torture their enemies. However, I am wondering what you all think might drive a character to torturing their foes. What sort of past would they have to have to be driven to that.
-Desperation (Ex. Get information by a certain time or a world ending bomb will go off, self or friend is threatened)
-Sadistic Nature (A character who tortures because they enjoy it (bad guys), or they regain calm and control from it (Dexter), or they have different mental persona from a human (a cat's sadistic nature))
-Lack of Combat Knowledge (accidental) (person doesn't know where to hit to kill so instead they end up maiming the enemy)
