Alex is an anti-hero, he doesn't want the powers he has been given and his objective in Prototype is to find the people responsible for his situation and kill them. Unlike Infamous there are very few moral choices and Alex has no problem in absorbing other people to gain health and to gain their abilities. If you are in a near death situation and low on health you can simply grab an innocent pedestrian, smash their head and then consume them for a health boost.
