Azazel's Stump is an unlockable trinket added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Effects

  • Gives Isaac a 33% chance to visually turn into Character Azazel icon.pngAzazel when clearing a room. Isaac keeps his hearts and items, but changes his tears to be a short range Collectible Brimstone icon.pngBrimstone, gains a x1.5 damage multiplier, a Speed increase, and the ability to fly.
    • The effect lasts until clearing and leaving another room.
    • The effect can be taken to the next floor.
    • The Speed increase is equal to the difference between the current character's base speed and Azazel's (which is 1.25). For instance, Character Keeper icon.pngKeeper will gain +0.35 Speed since his base speed is 0.9.

Notes

  • Dropping the trinket after this transformation will not reverse it until a new room is cleared.
  • The trinket only changes Isaac's appearance to be as Azazel's but doesn't change the actual character. This means that the trinket cannot be used to unlock achievements for Azazel.
  • The effect will not change Isaac's health mechanics. For example, Character The Lost icon.pngThe Lost will retain his zero health and Collectible Holy Mantle icon.pngHoly Mantle.
  • When entering the area in MinesMines / AshpitAshpit to obtain Collectible Knife Piece 2 icon.pngKnife Piece 2 while in the Azazel form, flight and the Brimstone laser will remain despite visually reverting.
    • However, because picking up the Knife Piece triggers a room clear, the form will be reverted upon leaving the knife piece room, and the escape sequence will not benefit form the trinket's effect.

Synergies

  • Golden Trinket Golden Trinket / Collectible Mom's Box icon.pngMom's Box / multiple copies: One boost or additional copy increases the chance of Isaac turning into Azazel to 50%. Further boosts or copies increase the chance to 100%.
  • Collectible Rock Bottom icon.pngRock Bottom: Isaac retains the damage multiplier and base speed increase after the effect ends. Also removes the tear delay multiplier when transformed into Azazel.

Interactions

    • Collectible Birthright icon.pngBirthright as Azazel: Azazel's Stump has no further effect.
  • Character The Forgotten icon.pngThe Forgotten: Still uses his regular bone club attack while in skeleton form. The Soul will work as expected, and use the short-range Brimstone.
  • Character Tainted Forgotten icon.pngTainted Forgotten: The bone pile will visually turn into Azazel, with no gameplay effects.
