Rag Man

Rag Man is a boss added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth that can appear:
 * In all environments of Chapter 1.
 * Only in and the.

Behavior
Rag Man chases Isaac if there are no Rag Man's Raglings alive and can stop to perform the following attacks: Once Rag Man is killed, his Raglings' remains disappear, and the Raglings that are still alive won't leave remains upon death.
 * Throws his head towards Isaac. The head rolls for a bit, after which it turns into a Rag man's Ragling. His head then reappears on his body. While his head is rolling, his body walks around aimlessly, occasionally shooting a homing projectile in a random direction, behaving similar to a Gusher.
 * The head has 25 HP and can be shot to damage both Rag Man and the Ragling spawned from it.
 * Rag Man's Raglings leave remains on the ground after death. If the head is destroyed before transforming, it still creates a Ragling's remains.
 * Rag Man can only spawn up to 4 Raglings.
 * If there are any Rag Man's Rag Lings alive, Rag Man switches from chasing Isaac to staying beside one of his Raglings.
 * Revives all nearby Raglings from their remains and heals himself for 10 HP during the process, regardless of the number of Raglings resurrected.
 * Fires 1, 3, or 5 homing projectiles at Isaac in quick succession.
 * Raglings that are still alive will instantly die once Rag Man is killed even if they were not originally spawned by Rag Man himself.
 * However, they will not die if they're in their spawning phase when Rag Man was killed.

Champion Versions

 * Black: The head roll attack spawns 2 Spiders instead of a Ragling. He fires a spray of bullets, similar to Monstro, instead of a resurrection attack.
 * Orange: Does not fire homing bullets, and instead constantly creates and revives Raglings. The Raglings spawned by this version have the same orange tint as Rag Man.

Trivia

 * Rag Man is referred to as male in Edmund's design documents.
 * Edmund mentioned that it is highly likely that Rag Man can be also be found in Crawl Spaces in addition to being a normal boss. However, this is not the case, though Rag Man can be found in an I AM ERROR room and a Closet.
 * Rag Man is also a term for the Devil.

 * Originally, the End Is Nigh's protagonist, Ash, was going to look similar to Rag Man, but with legs and one arm. However, Edmund thought the design looked bad, so he cut off his body and removed the rags.
