The familiar "Harlequin Baby" from the video game Binding of Isaac is a reference to this condition.

Tagging this as NSFW, just to be sure, because the images are very disturbing.

NSFL. That was horrifying.

Well that was fucking awful.

In short, it's a skin disorder... Disease...? A skin thing where babies come out looking like they are baking in the sun. Their skin is hard and essentially plates and sometimes are bleeding at birth.

A very high mortality rate with survivors rarely living past 25? What a terrible thing to exist. Nature is absolutely fucking brutal.
