How can I gain humanity in Dark Souls?

Question

Every so often I'll look up at my counter and notice I gained some humanity. If I was fighting bosses I wouldn't think much of it, but sometimes it will happen when I'm just farming enemies.

I've recently noticed that every so often I will spawn at a bonfire (after dying) and will gain a humanity. I'm uncertain as to why.

In what ways can I gain humanity in Dark Souls?

Answer

From (one of) the Dark Souls wiki:

  • Humanity can be earned by playing as a Phantom, and help kill the end-level boss.
  • Humanity can be earned by killing Evil Spirits (invading players), or by invading and killing a player in another world.
  • Humanity can be bought from some merchants.
  • Humanity can be found, as a dropped item, from some killed enemies.
  • Humanity can be found as a consumable item.
  • Humanity can be earned by having your hint sign up-voted by another player.
  • Humanity can be earned by killing a large amount of monsters in one area if the boss is alive (up to 10 Humanity).

The last reason must be why I was gaining humanity when spawning.
