Gemini is a boss that can appear:
Only in the
Basement.
In the
Basement and the
Burning Basement.
Each twin has 140 HP. The large twin is called Contusion and the small twin is called Suture.[1][2]
Behavior[]
Gemini starts as a pair of bosses connected together by an umbilical cord.
- Contusion chases Isaac and periodically charges increasing his speed, but stops to catch his breath afterwards.
- Suture, while attached to Contusion, shoots a projectile towards Isaac if not behind an obstacle.
- If Contusion is killed first, Suture detaches and begins charging furiously at Isaac. He has high momentum and takes extra knock-back from tears which can cause him to gain speed.
- If Suture is killed first, there is no change to Contusion's behavior.
Champion Versions

- ◼ Cyan: Suture shoots homing shots. Contusion will drop a
Soul Heart if killed last.
- ◼ Green: They start separated from each other and have no difference in behavior. However, if Contusion is killed last, it will usually drop a
Red Heart or
Half Red Heart, but will rarely drop any other type of Heart instead (Soul, Bone, Gold, etc).

Trivia[]
- Gemini appeared in the original The Binding of Isaac.

-
Blighted Ovum is the posthumous version of them, and
Steven is the alternate version.
- The Gemini pair is named after the astrological sign of the same name; the symbol of Gemini is a pair of twins.
- The Gemini pair was originally designed to be a boss in Gish and was called Suture Contusion, with the larger twin being Contusion for the boot-shaped dent in his head.[2]
- Contusion is the medical name for a bruise, whereas suture is the medical name for a thread used to close gaping wounds, commonly called stitches.
- The names of the brothers are inspired by a song by The Mars Volta[1]
- The specific lyric comes from "Cicatriz ESP."
- In the Bestiary, Suture is referred to as "Gemini Baby".
