What Music They Make!

This sinister brooch was once worn by an unlucky inhabitant of the Gungeon, who used it to draw health from wounded enemies.

There is a curse upon it, however, and the cost may not be worth the benefit.

Blood Brooch is a passive item in Enter the Gungeon.

• Heals half a heart every 1200 damage dealt to enemies.

Notes

• This item has no effect aside from increasing curse when playing as Robot.
• The item effect is reminiscent of the rally mechanic in Bloodborne, whereby the player character can regain health by attacking enemies after taking damage.
• This item and its synergy with the Trick Gun are references to Bloodborne where the old blood refers to the blood of the Great Ones.
  • Blood Brooch resembles Bloodborne's Red Jeweled Brooch.
• The pickup line is a reference to Count Dracula's line, "listen to them — children of the night. What music they make" in the book and in the 1931 movie Dracula .
  • It may also be a reference to the Bloodborne character Father Gascoigne, to whose wife the Red Jeweled Brooch described above belonged, and who has a mechanic during his boss fight where he can be distracted with music.
