玄奇驴皮#642

Magic Skin is an unlockable activated item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

• Magic Skin originates from the Antibirth mod.
• The item is a reference to the book by French novelist Honoré de Balzac called La Peau de chagrin, known in English as The Wild Ass's Skin. In the story, the main character finds a talisman made of donkey skin that grants wishes, but each wish causes the talisman to become smaller, as well as his lifetime. He attempts to get rid of the skin, but it always finds a way to return to him.
• The item's pickup quote, "All your desires fulfilled", is the first sentence written on the skin in the novel.
• This also may be a reference to the goatskin Jacob uses to trick his father Isaac into thinking he was Esau, thus giving him his blessing along with the divine right God had promised Abraham (Isaac's father), which included inheriting the promised land and having his bloodline bring forth the Messiah.
• The function of the item resembles that of Spice in Enter the Gungeon, specifically its propensity to replace future Items after being used.
• However, Spice is different in that its first couple of uses actually provide Heart Containers. Also, while Magic Skin is slightly limited in its Item-replacing if you leave it on a pedestal, Spice is not. Jacob and Esau Unlocks Mother Unlocks The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
