Effigies are bizarre constructions made of sticks, rocks and body parts. All effigies must be completed and set on fire to have an effect on cannibals, unlit effigies have no effect.

Gameplay[edit | edit source]
The player can start building them by selecting one of the four from the bloody effigies tab in the survival guide but only if the sanity level of the player drops below 90%. They consist of body parts from the cannibals (heads, torsos, arms, and legs) as well as some sticks and rocks.
No matter which cannibal is dismembered and used, the effigy will always sport tribal male cannibal body parts.
Effects[edit | edit source]
Their main purpose is to cause fear in cannibals and keep them away from the player, similar to how red paint works. How cannibals react to a player with red paint on is almost exactly the same as how they react with effigies. It will cause most cannibals to fear the player and avoid them, though there are a few that will still attack the player. The reason for this is actually done on purpose by the developers. The developers placed ‘fuzziness' to the coding into the game, that causes some cannibals to ignore the standard AI rules. The reason for doing this is to prevent players learning and figuring out cannibal behavior. The developers want to keep their behavior a secret to add immersion to the game. Though this is up to the player if they find effigies worth it or not, most players find them too inconsistent.
Building an effigy won't stop the cannibals from attacking, they may approach a burning effigy with caution or run away from it or even ignore the effigy. If the player approaches the cannibals, they will often attack the player with complete disregard for the effigy as approaching cannibals is deemed as an act of aggression.
When the developers were asked about aggression of AI they stated:
We don't want to spell out exactly how the ai works, but for aggression there are lots of different triggers that can affect how they behave. Getting too close, killing females in front of male members and being in certain parts of the map can all change how aggressive they are. And there is always some 'fuzziness' built into the AI, so they don't always do the same thing each time.
As the developers have added fuzziness to the AI, this would explain why cannibals sometimes ignore effigies.
