Arm

Arms are consumable body limbs that can be chopped from dead cannibals or effigies in The Forest.

Gameplay
Arms can be chopped from cannibals corpses using an axe or any cutting melee weapon. It can be used to build effigies, as a weak melee weapon and even cooked and eaten by the player.

They are required to build the Small Effigy, the Large Effigy, the Arm Effigy and can be placed on a Custom Effigy.

As a weapon, the arm only consumes a small amount of energy, but is quite weak which means a huge amount of hits are necessary to kill enemies, making it a very last resort melee weapon, though it can still be used to block.

The Arm can be cooked on a fire and eaten by the player, as well as placed on a drying rack for later consumption. Leaving it to burn on a fire yields a single bone. As with any edible cannibal body limb, it will lower the player's sanity upon consumption unless dried, as well as raising weight like a snack would.

The player can only carry 2 arms in their inventory.

Trivia

 * The finger nails are grossly long, possibly used as a form of attack or to aid the cannibal in eating human flesh or other cannibals.
 * Body limbs are perishable, and will spoil if kept in the player's inventory for too long.
 * Eating cooked body limbs is the fastest way to decrease sanity.
 * Eating dried body limbs will fill your fullness bar just like regular dried meat would dependent on which state the body limb is in.
 * Eating dried body limb does not decrease sanity
