Adam is more likely gonna get worse before he gets better, and that's if he gets better.

And we've already seen a big part of why he became the monster that he is in his character short: Sienna. It was essentially Sienna Khan's fault. When he panicked and accidentally killed a human who was trying to kill Ghira, Sienna praised him as a hero, and he looked genuinely surprised. Later on, we see him get ready to kill an unarmed human on purpose, and Sienna doesn't say anything about it even though she sees it happening. The only reason she interrupts is because they need to keep moving. She sees him do this but doesn't tell him not to. Essentially, she encouraged it by letting him think that it's okay.

Also, with Frollo... ehhh... I don't get the sense that Frollo's past has anything to do with what he's doing. He's blinded by religion. In fact, he's so blinded by it that, when he finds himself attracted to Esmeralda, a woman of the group he's been trying to kill, he deludes himself into thinking that she has merely cast a spell on him and goes (creepily) nuts with lust for her. And I'm not saying religion is a bad thing; it's a really, really good thing. It's just that there are people who blind themselves with their religion, using their holy book to justify hate and murder. Most often, it doesn't have anything to do with something that happened to them in their past or anything like that. It's just... blind hatred that they think they can justify with religion. That's what Frollo did, when it came to the Romani people ("gypsy" is actually a slur).
