It all depends on what archetype he's been up there as.  When kicked through the House, he'd become the direct opposite of whatever archetype he was before (so, if he was the Self-Loather someone suggested, then he'd become an extreme egomaniac, but the rest could remain similar, except what was based upon that, which would be his hatred of the Jews in that hypothetical example.)

You won't die directly because of TNG's acts, but she (and a couple of dozen other IC members) are the ones that determine whether Eponymous's bullet hits you in the face or whether you flinch at the right moment for it to just miss.  

Mr. Teapot
flinched at the wrong moment
