Dead God Item?

[Magus Coldfire]

Bindinf of Isaac with all DLCs has 637 achievements. There is probably no other game with so many, but since most of them unlock something, it's really fun to complete the game. I'm 2 achievements away until I get Dead God (31 Dailies and Pandoras Box in Dark Room are left) and I was wondering:

Why isn't there a Dead God item? Something completely broken. But then I was thinking: Would that be really fun? What kind of item should it be to deserve this name/achievement, without being to boring or repetetive?

Then I thought: The item should utilize the fact that you have unlocked everything in the game. So I came up with this:

Dead God:
- Tier 4 (or 5, for the lulz)
- Can appear in an ultra secret room, angel room, devil room, sacrifice room and secret room
- Picking it up grants you a Dead God Transformation (epic sprite, a mixed theme of devil/angel). It will provide you with flight, immunity against any status effect, immunity against spikes, poison clouds, red poop and other environmental dangers. Only enemy attacks may hurt you now.
- It also grants you +0.5 Speed, +3 Damage, Tear Rate x1.5, Range +5, Luck +5, +1 Red Hearts, +1 Blue Hearts, +1 Black Hearts, +1 Bone Hearts
- On top of that: It grants you 5 randomly chosen passive items out of the angel/devil/secret room pool.
-- The first item is 100% Tier 4
-- The second item is 70% Tier 4, 20% Tier 3, 10% Tier 2
-- The third item is 40% Tier 4, 30% Tier 3, 30% Tier 2
-- The fourth item is 10% Tier 4, 40% Tier 3, 50% Tier 2
-- The fifth item is 1% Tier 4, 40% Tier 3, 59% Tier 2

So this is like 99% a won run, but you still don't know what you'll get out of it, allowing for lots of fun and powerful synergies.

This already kinda exists, that's what Death Certificate is for (just not as overpowered as your idea). Plus the "god" achievements don't usually correlate to any item like golden/platinum god in flash TBoI or even Rebirth before Repentance.

Would be cool if the Dead God achievement made devil and angel statues appear broken/decrepit to symbolize Isaac's withdrawal from religion. As for the item, Death Certificate already exists, like Stephan said.

What achievements are left for you? Except Dead God, of course.

Only "Moving Box" and "Dedicated". Second one easily manageable by just starting dailes and the other one will be done just by playing the game. Pandoras Box often appears in shops. :)

In an AMA with Kilburn I think he mentioned that there would be an item added later for the item ID#666 maybe that will be the item you're to which you are referring.
