Acrid is both a word meaning "having an irritatingly strong and unpleasant taste or smell", and the name of a semi-popular character from the Risk of Rain video game series.

The character's tag is simply acrid and should probably imply the series risk_of_rain but I wonder if the tag name might be too general and needs to be aliased/updated to something like acrid_(ror) or acrid_(risk_of_rain), currently the latter is the convention used for other characters from the same series

Rename the tag with _(risk_of_rain). It's a common word.

I second this advice

The bulk update request #10475 is active.

mass update acrid -> acrid_(risk_of_rain)
create implication acrid_(risk_of_rain) (281) -> risk_of_rain (1006)

Reason: "Acrid" is both a word meaning "having an irritatingly strong and unpleasant taste or smell", and the name of a semi-popular character from the Risk of Rain video game series. Right now the tag acrid is used for the latter purpose, so this is to make things clearer and more in line with the other RoR characters like huntress_(risk_of_rain)

Should acrid be invalidated or just abandoned?

not that many other tags with the name, i recommend against disambiguation

Invalidation could be okay, but leaving t as it is is also fine
