Emits deadly ooze when damaged.

This canister contains a poisonous sample of dangerous monster blood, collected by Médecins Sans Diplôme for study.

Monster Blood is a passive item in Enter the Gungeon.

Effects

• Taking damage spawns a pool of poison goop.
• Grants immunity to poison.
• Grants a heart container.

Synergies ^ETG

• Deadly Distraction - If the player also has Decoy, the Decoy creates a large poison pool when attacked.
• Deadlier Distraction - If the player also has Explosive Decoy, the Explosive Decoy explodes and creates a large poison pool when attacked.
• Monster Grub - If the player also has Shotgrub, Shotgrub's bullets will home in on enemies.
• Natural Selection - If the player also has Evolver, it evolves after every 3 unique enemy types killed instead of 5.
• Pandemic Pistol - If the player also has Plague Pistol, the pistol turns into the Pandemic Pistol, turning red with an increased ammo capacity, and its bullets become linked like VertebraeK-47's bullets.
• Venom Veins - If the player also has Mutation, Mutation will poison enemies damaged by it.

Cut Content

• Prior to the Supply Drop Update, Monster Blood did not grant a heart container and had a different sprite.
• In pre-release versions of Enter the Gungeon, Monster Blood was known (likely in error) as Secret of the Ooze. Secret of the Ooze is the designation of Bug Boots in the ETG string database, as well as the name of a different item in these early versions. Why these two items shared a name at one point is unknown.

Notes

• Like all heart container items, The Robot will receive 5 to 10 instead.
• On the Switch version, and Windows 10 Steam version, the accented characters in the Ammonomicon entry won't show up, instead reading "Mdecins Sans Diplme".
• This item is a reference to the book Monster Blood, the third title in the original Goosebumps series, written by R. L. Stine. In the books, Monster Blood came in a twist-to-open can.
• "Médecins Sans Diplôme" is French for "Doctors Without Diplomas", and is a reference to Médecins Sans Frontières, the global humanitarian organization born in France and known in English as Doctors Without Borders.
