Mulligan

type 817 · variant 0

Intro

For the item with a similar name, see The Mulligan. Mulligans are enemies that will actively try to avoid Isaac; their eyes widen and their speed increases when doing so. When running away, they may walk over spikes or into a fire. Upon death, they spawn several Flies, Attack Flies and, occasionally, a Pooter. Mulligans may sometimes self-detonate. If this occurs: in addition to spawning flies as normal, it will also fire four projectiles in the cardinal directions and destroy nearby objects when doing so. Mulligans cannot deal contact damage to Isaac ( unless they are Champions).

Trivia

  • The Leper and Leper Flesh enemies were added in Booster Pack #5.
  • The Mulligan, Mulligoon, Hive, and Swarmer are all the same monster in stages of decay and infestation.
  • In the original Binding of Isaac, when a Mulligan self-detonated, the explosion would not break rocks.
  • Mulligans will start running in random directions instead of directly away from Isaac if he stays close to them for long enough. This behavior also applies to Small Baby Long Legs.
  • In the game's files, there is an unused Mulliboom self-detonation animation, an unused graphic of a Hive with a Mulligoon's face, and an unused graphic of the Drowned Hive with a blue-tinted Mulligoon's face.
  • Drowned Hives, along with Drowned Chargers (name of Drowned Charger wasn't revealed), were revealed for Afterbirth in this official Binding of Isaac post.
  • A leper is a person who suffers from leprosy, which is a contagious disease that causes discoloration and lumping on the skin plus disfigurement and deformities.
  • Due to the Holy Mulligan leaving behind Embryos on death, it could be suggested that it transforms Embryos into the Small Angelic Babies it spawns.
  • Holy Mulligans, Holy Bonies, and Holy Eyes originated as cards from the card game The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls.
  • Gas Dwarves used to be called Fartigans.
  • Prey, Mullighouls, and Bouncers originate from the Antibirth mod. In Antibirth, Mullighouls could also appear in Mausoleum and had 13 stage hp. Bug! If a Mulligan or a Mulligoon is killed before the spawning period is finished (before they move), it will count as a self-detonation. Bug! If a Nest is killed in the Burning Basement, it has a chance to spawn a Flaming Hopper. Bug! Rarely if you kill a Drowned Hive before their spawn period is finished (before they move), it will shoot 4 projectiles in ordinal directions but the monster won't explode. Booster Packs #1
