Eden's Blessing is an unlockable passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.

Effects

• +0.7 tears up.
• Grants a random item at the start of the next run.
  • Key Piece 1, Key Piece 2, Broken Shovel, Broken Shovel, Mom's Shovel, Knife Piece 1, and Knife Piece 2 cannot be granted.

Notes

• The effect still occurs whether the run was successful or not, even if the run was restarted.
• The effect does not work if Eden's Blessing was obtained on a seeded run, during a Victory Lap, a RERUN, or during a challenge.
  • Likewise, Eden's Blessing will not grant a free item at the start of a challenge or RERUN, instead granting the free item on the next valid run started.
    • Interestingly, seeded runs will still gain the benefit of banked Eden's Blessings, without depleting them. This means that it is possible to play an infinite amount of seeded runs, and they all start with a free item until a normal run is started.
• Even if Eden's Blessing is re-rolled, such as with the D4 or D100, a random item will still be granted at the start of the next run.
  • If Eden's Blessing is then regained through Glowing Hour Glass, only one extra item will be given.
  • Absorbing Eden's Blessing with Void will not grant an extra item in the next run.
• Eden's Blessing can choose itself as the free item you gain, allowing for another free item in your next run.
• If more than one Eden's Blessing is acquired in a single run, that quantity of random items will be granted at the start of the next run, although it's capped at ten items.
  • It is possible to obtain multiple copies of an item at once this way.
• If Eden's Blessing effect is obtained through Metronome, no extra item will be given.
• If gained from Lemegeton, it will not grant an item next run.
• Taking Eden's Blessing and then starting a run as Jacob and Esau will only give item(s) to Jacob.
• As Tainted Lazarus, the item will be given to his alive form.
  • If Tainted Lazarus somehow acquires the item before flipping for the first time of the run, Eden's Blessing will be consumed upon flip and a random item will be granted to Dead Tainted Lazarus.
• Using R Key will not consume Eden's Blessing.

Trivia

• The white eyes given to Isaac by Eden's Blessing first appear during ending 1, when Isaac falls into the chest and transforms into Eden.
• This is the only item with an effect that applies on a future run.

Bugs

Bug!	A bug may occur when the item is picked up, and Glowing Hour Glass is used with either ? Card or The Battery to reverse time, out of the room, restoring your ability to get out using either of the two items and the Eden's Blessing pickup. This will allow you to generate an endless amount of Eden's Blessings, which will all carry over to your next run, and may be repeated endlessly.

Bug!	If Clicker turns the player into Jacob and Esau, after collecting Eden's Blessing previously in the run, any items that would have been normally gained at the beginning of the next run are instead given to Jacob and Esau instantly. This makes it so that no free random items are gained at the start of the next run.

Bug!	If the game crashes on the floor where you have taken Eden's Blessing (like during a breaking run), that counts as +1 item for the next run. If you continue the saved game and you take Eden's Blessing again, you gain an additional +1 item for that run. This process can grant you unlimited items for the next run.

Bug!	Using Jacob & Esau or Forgotten Soul after taking eden's blessing will cause the game to give the free item to the copy made by the soul

• From the bugs listed above, one can potentially "soft-lock" the game by overflowing the number of items one gets. This repeats and crashes until it fully loads, which may take several attempts to load. Anywhere over 1000 Eden's Blessings will have an increased chance to permanently soft-lock the game; therefore, these bugs are highly unadvised to abuse.
  • Up to 10 Eden's Blessing items will be given per run. Any remaining Blessings will continue to be given each run until you have no more left.
  • Free items gained from Eden's Blessing do not carry over to subsequent runs and are capped at 10 free items for only the next run.
