To me, Chara is someone horribly abused by the surface world to the point they have difficulty expressing compassion and love as well choosing to take on the kill or be killed ideology. But after meeting the Dreemur family and Underworld they truly found a place and people he could love even if they had trouble expressing it. That's why the Pacifist route is doubly heart warming; you're not just leading Frisk into the light but Chara as well. Or Chara could e Frisk and along the pacefist route she gives up her old name and gives herself a new one and in the genocide route she is corrupted by Love or level or whatever and become evil. The way I see it Chara's got a lot of issues eating away at them and when they see you going all Genocide I guess they just reach breaking point. Maybe after the first couple of kills the Love or level corrupts her and she think her purpose for being reincarnated is to gain more levels, causing her to ignore any sentenmantly for the monster she once loved.
