Starved ancient effigy

A Starved ancient effigy can be obtained as drops from many monsters around Runescape, as part of the ancient effigies Distractions and Diversions. The more powerful the monster, the more likely the drop. It requires level 91 in the skill it craves knowledge in to nourish it, but it can be banked until you can or choose to use it. When given knowledge, it will become a nourished ancient effigy and will grant 15,000 experience in the skill that was used to nourish it. The nourished ancient effigy will need level 93 in a certain skill. This skill can be different from the ones needed for the starved ancient effigy. The Assist System can be used to nourish an effigy. You can have more than one ancient effigy at a time.

Skills
Level 91 in the following skills may be needed to nourish the Starved Ancient Effigy. These skills are paired so both can be used to nourish, but only other can be assisted. Skills are following:

* It should be noted that someone needs to have their summoning points to the number of the summoning level that is required in order to investigate an ancient effigy, although they are not used. (E.g. If someone is asked to provide 91 summoning knowledge to investigate the effigy, they won't be able to do it if their summoning points are less than 91.)
