I'll only torture trillions of copies of you and the people you love most in my last moment of life iff I know that you're going to hurt me (and yes, I do have that ability). In every other way, I'm Friendly...

Like handoflixue, I'm not sure that any being that would threaten the torture of trillions to get its way can be considered Friendly.

It tortures if you DESTROY otherwise it's Friendly so if you don't kill it it becomes nice.
