A fresh start spends a token
Starting an Eden run consumes one Eden Token. Mom's Heart, It Lives, Ultra Greed and The Beast award tokens when defeated. Check your available count before another fresh start.

Eden:
Random starts and Eden Tokens
Check Eden's token cost, inspect the random starting tools and choose one of the three items offered by ordinary Birthright.
Understand the system
Read the build you received before choosing its first risk.
Inspect the actual tools
Eden starts with random stats, an active and a passive. Read the health bar, attack and held effects before deciding what the run needs. Ordinary Eden has no innate damage-triggered build reroll.
Birthright offers one reward
Optional Birthright generates three random item choices. Taking one removes the other two. Compare the offers before collecting one.
Yum Heart is a stated hypothetical starting tool, not a guaranteed Eden item. Birthright is optional. The token example has no artwork; item icons identify the other example tools. The token example starts a fresh ordinary run and excludes special modes.

Before the next action
- Use the first safe room to inspect health, attack speed and item descriptions. Identify the most urgent weakness.
- Check active charge before planning an activation. A familiar item can be useful even with an unfamiliar set of stats.
- Compare a choice with the build you have now. Avoid treating a famous item as automatically useful for every start.
