Broken Eye Orb status effect?

[Gurtaries]

Underneath my Hp bar, where to current status effects would currently be displayed, there is aparently a broken cracked red eye orb. Anyone know the meaning to this?

It's the new icon for "blocked invasions", meaning nobody can invade you in the area where you currently are, with the new patch it gets applied automatically after defeating the area boss, or the usual way by burning a human effigy.

Beware that it runs out. It lasts for some time so you can explore the place or coop with your sign but its sadly not forever like in DS1.

What's the time limit on it? Or maybe you just wandered into a part of the area where people can't be summoned/invaded anyways? I know if you're in a portion like that the symbol disappears.

Mine disappeared after around 30 minutes of being afk. Could be more or less.

I wish there was a way to disable it, it's irritating having to rest at the bonfire to get one of the precious few invaders these days.
