- The familiar does not deal damage to enemies.
Notes[edit | edit source]


5.100.474

None

(page 4, column 9, row 6)

- When the familiar is generated, Isaac will gain the familiar permanently as a passive item. This allows Isaac to drop the trinket while keeping the familiar.
- The passive Tonsil item does not exist in any item pool; thus, this is the only way to find it and make it appear in the Collection Page aside from starting with it as Eden.
- If Eden starts with the passive tonsil item and picks up the trinket, the trinket will spawn only one familiar before being consumed.
- Sources of self-inflicted damage, like
IV Bag or Blood Donation Machines, can spawn a familiar.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Tonsils are soft tissue located near the back of the throat which, in the event of inflammation to the point of obstructing the throat, can be removed without much noticeable difference.
