Damocles

Damocles is a single-use active item.

Effects

• Upon use, summons a dagger that hangs directly above Isaac. As long as the dagger hangs above Isaac, all item pedestals are doubled, spawning an extra item for every item spawned. At any time without warning, the dagger may fall, instantly killing Isaac regardless of his health.
  • In Shops and Devil Rooms, the extra item is free to take.
  • In double Treasure Rooms and boss rewards with There's Options, four items will spawn, but you can only take one item from each pair.
  • The only way to survive the falling dagger is through extra lives. After the dagger falls, extra items will no longer spawn.
