Soul of Mastema - Pay one heart container (or two soul hearts) to duplicate all items in the room

I think I've got the effect for his soul stone done but that's a cool idea for another type of item, thanks for the suggestion. :)

Ok in that case I have another suggestion. A passive item that guarantees a sacrifice room to spawn on every floor. Or a trinket that guarantees a sacrifice room to spawn when entering a new floor while held.

A trinket that gives The Wafer effect when taking damage from non-enemy sources (like sacrifice room spikes or devil beggars)

I don't think I can do anything that affects room generation but I love this trinket idea. I'm surprised there isn't something like this already in the game. Well there will be after I add it. I like your ideas a lot, let me know whenever you come up with anymore.

Also I'll go ahead and say what I have so far. I've got his soul stone done like a said, a trinket, and 6 items but I'm not sure I like one of them and wanna include it, so let's just say 5.

Glad you like my ideas man :D I'm excited to see what's next for this mod.

I do have another idea. An item that gives you a chance of creating a clot (like the ones Tainted Eve makes) when you take damage. The type of clot would depend on the type of heart that was damaged (e.g. soul heart = blue clot).

I'm glad to hear that! Hopefully I can actually do the unlock system cause I've never done something like that and I'm dreading it. But I'm gonna try to finish all the items before I even attempt that.

And that sounds like a fun item. One of the items I made also has an on hit effect and I'm honestly still not sure if I should make it always activate but only when hit by an enemy (to prevent it being abused from things like demon beggars) or allow it to activate from any hit but make it a percent chance. I could probably include your clot idea, it's kind of similar to the one I made but at the same time it's different.

Reading up on the Book of Jubilees, I found this,
Now Soul of Eve sounds a lot like that, so I'm trying to think of what can be done. Perhaps an active item, themed like a crow, that when used, consume pick ups in the room for temporary stat ups that fade over time?

Another one I found.
Some sort of passive item that auto-kills 1 enemy in each room (bosses aside ofc, maybe they can take a 15% hp reduction similar to the effects of the tick)

For on this night -the beginning of the festival and the beginning of the joy- ye were eating the passover in Egypt, when all the powers of Mastêmâ had been let loose to slay all the first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh to the first-born of the captive maid-servant in the mill, and to the cattle.

Yeah I saw stuff about crows too but like you said that would be too similar to Soul of Eve. I could try doing something like that active item though.

And I like the passive idea you mentioned. I'm thinking it could kill the enemy with the highest hp in the room, and reduce boss health like you said. That would be pretty useful.

A new card for Defeating Ultra Greedier as Tainted Mastema:Unholy Card
Gives you a random devil deal item,but also gives you broken hearts depending on the quality of that given item.

Spoiler alert: one of the items is VERY similar to that. ;)

If you'd like to keep with the tarot theme, there are some decks that name the blank card. Like seen here: https://tarotofempowerment.com/the-unknown/
The card has the same meaning facing up and down, as it simply means the answer in divination is not known. Some ideas for that could be for it to apply a random tarot effect, or to teleport to the I Am Error room. I have created a sprite for it here, feel free to use it if you'd like: https://i.imgur.com/SJUa9A8.png

Three other concepts I made sprites for, if you'd like:
Book of Hamsa: https://i.imgur.com/ZGzEWO6.png
Ceres: https://i.imgur.com/IdHBqgf.png
Singularity: https://i.imgur.com/XXcpjHG.png
Infested Penny: https://i.imgur.com/FyzPIU1.png
Philosopher's Stone: https://i.imgur.com/zTxx8Yh.png
(tbh the only effects i really remember are Singularity, where it was a shower thought about a reverse Void where it lowers Isaac's stats and spawns an item from the current item pool, lowering more stats each time it's used, and Infested Penny which spawns blue spiders when you pick up coins)

Oooh those are some really cool ideas. The thing is that I feel like they don't really have much to do with the character. Now I do have a couple items that might not relate much to them, but I don't think there should be too many.

But lemme tell you, I LOVE the idea of Singularity. In fact, I already know what my next character, if I ever get to it, is gonna be themed around. Don't be surprised if Singularity and that tarot card are unlocks for that character. That won't be anytime soon though.

Also here's another progress update. I have 16 items in total now. Still much work to be done but it's getting there. I'm just taking my time with it, I'm in no rush. Also know that tainted Mastema's delirium unlock is CRAZY good.

Looking forward to it!
