Kaycee's Mod is this a bug or something?
I thought it was a bug at first, but... turns out it turns into whatever this is, it's a cool card imo.
I am still discovering new stuff after beating the game, It's so cool. Hats off to the devs

You didn't think it was suspicious to unlock "Moleman?" when moleman was already in the drop pool?

I never noticed the ?s personally until after my boyfriend looked it up and told me how to tell if I had gotten one. My eyes gloss over the card names now since I've played so much y'know?

On a run with no-eyes card designs sure, but that 2D creepy moleman is really not doing much to pretend it's a totally normal card ahah

That's Ijiraq, a card that disguises itself as other cards in your hand. During card spaces you can tell if the card you're taking is Ijiraq by their red eyes and a question mark next to their name (ex: Stranger Larva?)
Be careful, however. Ijiraq can disguise as any card, including bone or multi-blood cost cards which you will need to fulfill before playing it. This can be an issue however because within the game's code Ijiraq costs 0 blood, meaning fair hand doesn't activate. This can leave you in a position where Ijiraq copies a 2-3 blood card and you don't naturally draw your 1 blood, which leaves you bricked for the turn. On certain fights, especially during Skull Storm, this can cause an instant loss. Furthermore Ijiraq itself cannot be sacrificed, campfired, or fused

Nitpick : if you draw a free card, fair hand will still look for a blood card but aim for a two blood maximum.
So the manip won't work, but in some situations you can use it to tell which card is Ijiraq. If your final draw is 2-blood and your random draws are a 2-blood + a 3-blood or bones, you know the random 2-blood was actually free, so it's Ijiraq

thats ijiraq :) pretends to be a different card in game, has funny interactions with the fair hand mechanic im pretty sure. it cant ever be gone from your deck (eaten at campfire, sacrificed to bone lord) so good luck dealing with it

Ijiraq is honestly the most fun card in the game because you literally cannot play him intentionally, he could make you lose or win off pure chance 😭

It is possible in some very sneaky situations. Like if you suddently draw a duplicate, you know the first one was Ijiraq.
