Human Effigy

A Human Effigy is a restorative item and starting gift in Dark Souls II.

General Information
Restores the player back to human form, allowing their health bar to recover up to its maximum value and allowing the player to see and interact with summon signs. Burning Human Effigies at bonfires temporarily decreases the player's world priority in the invasion selection process as well as disable the ability to summon other players. Takes 30 - 60 minutes for the burning of a human effigy to run out.

Alternatives
In the Shrine of Amana, the player can find a shrine above the fourth bonfire down a short path that will turn the player human for free. This method only works if the player has already used all the effigies they have acquired. Dropping effigies on the ground to remove them from the player's inventory will not meet the requirement of not having effigies.
