"Hello everybody, what a nice day it is right? Hope you all agree :D
Anyways, lately I've been thinking about a new character for the Binding of Isaac: Rebirth!
His name is Ezekiel(like from the bible).
The way he looks here, is the way he'll look when he stands vs a boss(like there's an crying Isaac or any character)
He's a swordman, more like a samurai.
-Running into the basement he seeks for the revenge, he won't stop untill he gets it!-
Let's get to the fun part okay?
He wields the legendary sword "The blade of the thousand tears".
Basically when you get this sword you can't use your tears anymore,and instead of using your tears it works like that:
v.1
-You dash the enemies dealing the amount of damage you have( it starts with 60)
-It leaves the enemy bleeding which is his passive "Open wound"
-Open wounds applies only on regular enemies(doesn't work on bosses or mini bosses) but still leaves a mark, therefore you can't dash the same boss for the mark amount of time(about 9 secs)
-Grants you a cool hat, amazing cape, and a tie on your eyes(well yeah you can't freaking shoot tears)
v.2
-He charges the sword like the "Brimstone" and when he finished charging he cuts through 4 enemies (in his vision) and leaves them with the "Open wound"
Question: ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that's op AS F!!!
Answer: I thought about that, and while he charges he can't move, you're happy now?
-Everything else stays the same.
v.3
-He charges the sword like the "Brimstone" and when he finished charging dashes the way infront of him cutting everything in a direct line(the longer it charges the further it dashes) basically like the jump effect but does damage and makes you invincible while dashing.
After we discussed about the the blade itself, let's have a look on Ezekiel.
Ezekiel:
-Has a cool straw hat and a red rugged cape, looks like he has the meat effect on his eyes (fat mad samurai eyebrows, these anime style samurais) try to imagine :)
-Starts with no hearts.
Question: WHAT? HOW? THE LOST?
Answer: Well no, he gets half a heart on every bleeding enemy in the room, when the enemy is dead it resets his containers.
-Starts with a "Breath of Life", because he needs something to help him get through the stages.
-For every bleeding enemy in the room, he gets a speed boost, and when the enemy is dead the speed boost resets.
Question: isn't it a bit OP?
Answer: Maybe,but he can't take any speed items, which means he's always slow until he hits an enemy.
-I still didn't think of an creative way of unlocking him, so if you can suggest anything I'd be glad to hear.
Thank you for reading all of this!
English isn't my mother tongue so expect mistakes.
I'm very open for suggestions and anything you'd like to say is considered with huge appreciation.
Huge ups for Amitlevy for the amazing artwork, thank you so much!
