I honestly don't believe I will have any legal trouble because I don't do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?

You need a killswitch. When my VPN goes down it terminates the BitTorrent process

What happens if you start the torrent client without the VPN already running?

Bind your torrent client to the VPN interface, then you won't even need a killswitch.
