Bonfires in Dark Souls 2 are covered on this page. Bonfires are places of rest where players can replenish health and estus and serve as checkpoints on your journey. When you die, you respawn at the last bonfire you rested at.
Bonfires Information
The following are the functions you can perfom at bonfires:
Attune Spells
Add or remove spell scrolls from attunement slots.
- The Attune Magic function will appear on the menu after acquiring a spell scroll (Hex, Miracle, Pyromancy, Sorcery)
- The starting classes which begin with a spell will have the Attune Spell function available immediately

uh, so... i was playing normally on my Xbox, and i was going to warp to Majula to spend some souls. completely normal, right? well, i opened the warp screen and i just got surprised with a unknown bonfire??? it's name is literally "???" and the image is all blurry, i scrolled down a bit and apparently, i "know" every bonfire in the game exists but i don't have it at the same time. idk if it's a bug, an intentional thing, etc. so, if anyone can help me, i'm grateful.
This page is a mess. I'd love to fix some of it, but i cant find any options to switch to a better editor. With this graphic editor i'd had to do too much stuff from scratch.

Rested at the Soldier’s Rest bonfire in hollow form and saw the bonfire action “reverse effect of human effigy” or words to that effect. Any ideas what this means? I tried looking at Majula bonfire but the option didn’t show up.

Just tell us where they are! A low-res picture tells me nothing.
every bonfire that you missed will be revealed in the travel menu as ??? specifically after talking to nashandra, skipping her will not reveal any bonfires or areas.
