Edith

From The Binding of Isaac Compliance Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Edith is an unmoving salt statue with a never changing face, and is the titular Character of the Edith MOD. She is unable to walk normally and instead moves around by teleporting to a cursor on the ground, similar to items such as File:Epic Fetus.png Epic Fetus.

Notes

  • Edith cannot receive red heart containers. If an item would grant her a red heart container (including an empty one), it adds a Soul Heart instead.
  • Edith's teleporting ability can be used to destroy obstacles, doors, walls and all fire Places.
  • Edith's teleporting ability can also be used to damage other enemies by landing on them. The damage will increase as her damage stat goes up. She also becomes invincible for a short while after each teleport.
  • Edith travels through rooms by moving the cursor through doors. Her speed stat affects the speed of the cursor.

Trivia

  • Edith was originally supposed to be a secret character similar to The Lost and Keeper, but was cut as the author of the mod didn't have enough time to balance Edith before release. The author claims that the character may be implemented in a later update.
  • In some Jewish traditions, Edith is the name of the wife of the biblical Lot (who is otherwise never named), who turned into a pillar of salt. This is further supported by Edith's white coloration (akin to salt), her petrified look, and her inability to move.
  • Edith's teleportation deals explosive damage upon landing, however she cannot open bomb chests by landing on them.
  • Edith does not appear in Repentance, but File:Tarot Reverse Chariot.png VII - The Chariot? has a small chance to briefly turn the character into a similar-looking statue. Additionally, File:Tainted Forgotten.png Tainted Forgotten seems to be a balanced version of Edith, which throws an immobile body to attack enemies and wears a similar cloak.
