Isaac!
~ Mom calling out for Isaac.

Magdalene O. Moriah, better known as simply Mom, is the main antagonist of The Binding of Isaac and its remake The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth.

She is the abusive, highly religious mother of Isaac. Due to the stress and self-loathing her behavior inflicts on her son, Magdalene takes the form of a violent lunatic that seeks to kill Isaac in his imagination, leading the dangerous monsters that Isaac fights as he descends deeper into madness.

She was voiced by Carla Kihlstedt in the original game and Patty Allen-Scott in The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth.

Biography[]

Maggy was once a caring individual, who raised Isaac along with his father, things went at the start, but at some point Maggy got addicted to substances and over time her devotion to her religion got more and more consuming, with both of Isaac's parents on substances they became more abusive towards each other. At some point, their abusive relationship climaxes and the father ends up walking out. After this point Maggy became much more unstable, with her spinning a narrative of Isaac's dad having never loved them. However, Isaac still loves his dad and the situation is taking a toll, when Maggy discovers that Isaac has been secretly playing with a set of toys his dad made for him, which were of great significance to Isaac, she tells Isaac that "He left us." and "It's just us now." before presumably, throwing out the toys.

After this event Isaac begins creating his own world, drawing creatures and monsters and pinning them across the walls on the room, Maggy seemed to be tolerant of this until she finds Isaac drawing her as a distorted creature labeled only as "Mother". After this event she lashes out at Isaac and locks him in a closet, this is presumably the same time where she starts tearing down all Isaac's drawings and getting rid of his toys and clothing.

This event causes Isaac to retreat and get increasingly more secluded until he hides himself away in the toy chest and imagines himself to be in a story where Maggy was told by God to kill him to prove her devotion. He escapes into a trapdoor and fights various monsters while gaining powers and ends up facing various versions of his Mom. In the end, Isaac ends up suffocating to death in the chest.

Mom manifests in Isaac's nightmare world as a horrific demon that acts as the final monster he must encounter in the original game, having a massive array of powers and being depicted as a mindless killer. She is also implied to be grotesque in appearance, as many of the items focused around her (Mom's Bra, Mom's Pad, Mom's Contact, etc.) all cause enemies to become petrified. In later expansions, Isaac's mother also fights Isaac in numerous alternate forms, namely as Mom's Heart and Mother.

With Maggy being unaware that Isaac's in the chest, she spends weeks putting up missing posters and searching for her boy, after awhile, she ends up finding Isaac's remains in the toy chest, which sends her into tears. Maggy's fate after this is unseen.
