		<description><![CDATA[Simply a generic person. An effigy is crudely made. Maybe the right arm broke off and is leaning against the wall? Maybe it&#039;s unfinished? After all, it still needs to be dressed.

Two arms aren&#039;t a must.

Sure, Manson could have drawn a second arm at the side of the figure, but that&#039;s some trivial artistic license, right?

Seldom is a solution fool-proof, but I claim that this is the simplest, most reasonable explanation for all the information in the room and text.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That doesn&#039;t really address my concern, though, because it could easily point left while having a second arm.  If it&#039;s meant to be an effigy of a generic person, you&#039;d expect it to have two arms; if it&#039;s meant to be an effigy of a specific person, you&#039;d only expect it be one-armed if that person is one-armed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why, because it is simultaneously a &quot;signal&quot; and an &quot;FG&quot;, of course. A left-turn hand signal to be precise. 

All of the guests are correct.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Effigy&quot; is an interesting suggestion here, and I like possibility of reading that as FG; it&quot;s not a phonetic bullseye, but neither are &quot;hurry cane&quot; or &quot;pair&#039;o&#039;dice.&quot;  I&#039;m not convinced of what the significance of that message would be, but it merits thought.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Got it. What is a totem, tribal fetish, and work of art, that resembles a person and that you burn? It&#039;s an effigy, as in &quot;FG&quot;. These are the two clefs in Room 18. We pick the left half of the word:&quot;F&quot;, which corresponds to door 13.]]></description>
