That being said what aspects of light such a being could weild, to what degree, and with what level of skill is I think the real question here. Light is after all an element of the natural world and thus is impossible to pin down as being either beneficial or malevolent in nature. Natural forces and elements of nature are subject to natural limitations and laws of nature (not least of which is the law of balance, that something must arise from or as a result of something else). That being said there are aspects of light that one of an evil disposition could not weild (either by reason of being evil, although the degree of their respective wickedness would and does have a bearing on this, or the implications of such a disposition). For example they would be either unable to use beneficial light powers unless they were trying to disguise there malicious intent and even then their degree of skill seems unlikely to be greater than competent at best. If the being was pure evil and had a true and profound hatred of all things associated with good than using any light based powers would not only be a source of shame but also quite possibly dangerous to the psyche of the being in question It really depends on the verse in nature and said verse's laws. One reality could have light exclusive to demons and darkness exclusive to angels while another verse could have them be neutral.
