Elder Brithvar Dialogue Options in BG3
When first approached, Elder Brithvar is discussing with his associate Stone Guard Kur regarding how to free True Soul Nere and unpaid wages. Players can convince Elder Brithvar that they are not in Nere's side, this will lead Brithvar to propose a deal to bring the Drow down. If players accept, he will also ask them to first destroy the Scrying Eye that is moving through the Duergar camp.
Once Nere is freed, Brithvar will reclaim to the Drow the unpaid wages and players can make their final choice regarding the Duergar. Either to side with Nere or to side with Elder Brithvar and the rebels, by doing so, he and his crew will fight alongside you during this fight.
If you sided with him, and he survives, you can convince him to release the Deep Gnomes for the Save the Grymforge Gnomes quest. If he didn't survive, another Duergar will take his place regarding what to do with the Deep Gnomes.

I wish he was recruitable on an "evil" aligned playthrough. The game seriously lacks companions and loot for evil playthroughs.

Figured it out! I couldn't get -him- to trigger, kept telling me to leave. But! You talk to the Stone Guard Kur who he's talking to instead. That triggered the correct dialogue and then denied being a true soul.

Bugged Version: He just tells you to scram away, no dialogue choices but Leave.. lol

He got pushed in the lava by his own ppls in my run. LOL
Had to jump in and loot him. Hurt.
You can side w/ him, get the reward, have him release the slaves, and then attack him and the other Duergar to gain more Exp and items :)

Killing him as a Path of Ancients Paladin, even during the fight with Nere, marks you as an oathbreaker.

If you get Brithvar on your side for the confrontation with Nere, but he dies during the fight, one of his colleagues still pays you and will discuss the fate of the gnomes.

Hilariously if you attack the Eye in front of him they attack you immediately and you can't bribe your way out of that conversation.

He just tells me to bug off. I'm at the nere stage where I'm about to free him. Why?

Depending on what dialogue choices you take when you first see him, you can bug yourself out of winning him over to your side. DON'T talk to him until you are ready to deal with Nere. It sucks because he is one of the first people you see once you leave the boat, so if you go and talk to him then you can possibly bug yourself out of making the Nere fight doable.
There's a bug related to him where if you talk to him first instead of Kur it will lead to a dialogue loop where he tells you to go away. If you did talk to him first then reloading a save to before you interacted with him and talking to Kur first should fix it.
