Bloody Idol
Bloody Idol is an event relic obtained from a specific random event. Whenever you obtain gold, you heal 5 HP. Any source of gold gain — from combat rewards, elite fights, events, or chests — triggers the healing. It is a relic that rewards active gold collection throughout the run.
Bloody Idol turns gold into a healing resource, making every gold reward double as a health recovery tool. In a typical run, you might collect 400-600 gold, meaning Bloody Idol could provide 80-120 HP of healing spread across the run — an enormous amount that substantially reduces the pressure of taking damage. It is strongest on runs where you are struggling to maintain HP and collect gold frequently. It synergizes with any source of bonus gold (shops that award gold, events, and certain relics). The healing is passive and automatic, requiring no decisions on your part, making it a highly consistent sustain tool. It is the run reward from the Vampires event, where you accept the idol in exchange for losing all your potions.
