eridan: is heavily coded as mentally ill (borderline personality disorder) throughout the webcomic alongside being the second-highest bloodcaste (which comes w violent tendencies)
eridan: refrains from pursuing his violent tendencies on trolls and instead is persuaded by his moirail to kill lusii for her to feed gl'bgolyb, which SHE should be doing considering its her RESPONSIBILITY AS HEIRESS TO DO SO, and not making someone who already struggles with those kinds of things in the first place
eridan: is constantly called dramatic by said moirail whenever he reveals his feelings to her, who then gets angry when he gets hesitant to tell her anything
eridan: is broken up with by his moirail once they enter the game, basically bc he doesn't serve her any purpose anymore after their planet is destroyed and the lusii gone, but backs off albeit somewhat hurt
eridan: when not able to kill lusii during the game, he goes off to kill the angels on the planet, once again /refraining from hurting any of his fellow players/ and is chastised for it by many of the trolls anyways
eridan: tries to save his ex-moirail by asking her to team up with him with the enemy because he sees its their only hope for survival, is attacked verbally by sollux AND her, duels sollux injuring him then is charged at head-first with a weapon by feferi with intent to kill/maim, and retaliates
eridan: /most likely/ destroys the matriorb and hurts kanaya due to his built-up aggression, on top of aforementioned murderous urges prompted by past experiences, his blood color, his SUSPECTED mental illness, AND the fact that a person he considered an incredibly good friend of his (kanaya) is staring him down with a weapon in her hand before charging at him with said weapon
eridan: past self gets screamed at by karkat, another person he considered a close friend, for things he isn't aware of and hasn't even done yet, called retarded and a backstabbing murderer, then told that the next time he sees him, karkat will literally kill him ("CG: I CAN'T STAND TO LOOK AT YOUR DUMB PURPLE WORDS ANYMORE. NEXT TIME I SEE THAT SHITTY COLOR YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT'LL BE COMING OUT OF YOUR BODY.")
fandom: cheers when he is killed, calls him a misogynist dudebro (on a fucking planet w an obvious matriarchal society, no less) portrays him as a whiny desperate sex-craved sociopath, and praises feferi for "dumping a person who caused her so much grief and suffering"
