Some of the oldest legends say Merlin is half demon, concieved by the devil or someone like him to serve as an anti-christ figure. His human mother supposedly purged the evil from him through baptization and allowed him to be good despite weilding "unholy" magic. What if in the Onceverse, "the Dark" is really Merlin's expelled demon half. Tim Curry is great as a villain so I think playing a Merlin who struggled with his evil nature would suit him.
