I've been listening to Missy series 1 and recently re-watched the Doctor falls, it got me thinking how many incarnations of the Master are evil, are any capable of good?
Missy definitely had a redemption arc and realized the value of her friendship with the Doctor.
The Delgado Master seemed to have a genuine affection for the 3rd Doctor and Jo.
The Beevers Master in Masterful was ready to live a simple life when he felt loved, also in the story Master he became a good Doctor, who loved his friends and would sacrifice this life to protect them.
The Jacobi Master seems to take the most glee from the pain he causes but from time to time seemed to want to end the Time War.
Most of the other Masters appear selfish, cruel, power crazed and amoral. Shows like Game of Thrones show us that people are shades of grey and not just good or evil, going forward I'd love to see this in the Master's characterization.
What do we think folks?
