if aerdir is a dark urge does that mean he is the one responsible for the absolute and if so how does that work with him being in the grove? btw i love him
FIRST OFF THANK FOR LOVING MY SON. I have gotten so attached to him that he's becoming my main boy (Ethari forever in my heart tho).
OKAY SO Aerdir is a Bhaalspawn more in the vein of Orin where he was just one of Bhaal's plethora of children that was meant to sow the seeds of chaos
I'm not like 100% on how "The Dark Urge" works, if it's like specific to the One Bhaalspawn or if it's like. An Affliction type thing that all Bhaalspawn have, but, yeah.
Tldr; no he wasn't but he IS a Bhaalspawn with very compulsive urges after he gets The Worm because ✨️Reasons✨️ (Reasons below)
He was ACTUALLY born outside of Elturel, but was kidnapped by an archfey as a young child and brought into Elturel, and the archfey keep him and a bunch of other "orphans". Once he was older and those murderous Bhaalspawn tendencies (dark urges, if u will) started to crop up, the archfey bound him to a warlock's pact, and essentially severed his bloodlust at a young age (around ten or so) so he was "redeemed" and had broken away from Bhaal before he even really knew he was Bhaalspawn.
Then, when he was around fifteen of so, he reinforced his pact with the archfey because he wanted to become a Hellrider, which we all know how THAT goes. He wasn't able to actually become one because the archfey refused to let him take a paladin's oath, but he was an excellent fighter regardless so he was more "mercenary" than anything, but he was very driven. He met Zevlor when he was like 28, so him and Zev have at least a 5 year history in the Hellriders (unofficially) together Before the Descent.
After Elturel fell, and the tieflings were kicked out, the archfey's sway on Aerdir loosened, then when Aerdir and the others arrive at the Grove, Aerdir gets illithid'd before Halsin disappears so when he gets back he has no idea why they're being kicked out.
Side note: I know Orin personally lobotomizes durge but for the sake of consistency she never knew Aerdir even existed before like. Act 2.
But the whole "worm made them weaker" thing loosens his pact with the archfey more to the point his Bhaalspawn tendencies start to show (murderous fits, craving bloodshed, enjoying killing, etc) and it Also allows him to finally take an oath so he becomes a paladin to simulate being Hellrider finally (it also keeps him accountable for his bloodlust).
So like, he had nothing to do with the Absolute, but since I wanted to play a Dark Urge run and I'm a wimp who hates to be mean he's being redeemed. And since I'm a Zevlor and Halsin simp I thought "what if I made him an Elturel refugee!!" and since I'm diseased and love to break canon I shoved them both together!

i refuse to watch hazbin hotel not only because i've heard how bad it is, but also because vivzie is a fucking AWFUL person and the morality of watching her shows comes up like every 6 months or so. HOWEVER!! tiktok has been supplying me with like entire HH episodes in about 3 or 4 videos and when i found out that christian borle voiced Vox i just about fucking died /pos
mind you i had a hyperfixation on falsettos and more specifically christian borle for a solid 7 or 8 months in 2022 and any time i find anything that he's involved in i stim so hard that my wrists hurt and i can't breathe (bc when i'm really really excited i have a tendency to squeal and hold my breath which is not a good thing!! don't hold your breath while stimming, that's bad!!!)
