We have taken the liberty of doing some research into the Tower's history and past trends, in hopes of uncovering something about the way this place operates, or solving one of the many mysteries that surrounds it. It would greatly benefit us if you could lend your assistance and help us with our research; the more people that answer the better, as it gives us more data to work with.

We understand that someone's probably sick of these kind of forms, questions and questionnaires, but we've done our best to compile the data from the past ones and hopefully not make it too repetitive, and get to the heart of the matter:


Name: (Optional)
Collar Color: (Self-Explanatory; if your collar color was changed during that screw up, if you remember what color it was changed to and the effects it had on you, we request that you record these as well. If you don't remember, that's perfectly fine.)
Special Abilities: (Superhuman or otherwise. Don't sell yourself short, please.)
Estimated Duration of Stay in the Tower: (Also Self-Explanatory)
Any Theories as to the Meaning of the Collars: (Optional, but any ideas would greatly help our research.)
Experiments/Special Events Experienced:(We're trying to put together a timeline of events that have occurred since the Tower was created, but we have not been present long enough to know all of them, and information on the earlier days seems to be scant. Putting them in chronological order would be extremely helpful if you remember about when each took place.)

And here's the form in a handy dandy code:


In addition, we have a few more gaps we'd like to fill about the earlier days of the Tower, but it seems that many of the people that were here at the beginning have disappeared. For those that were here in the very early days, we have a few questions about the environment-- nothing too invasive. Your cooperation would be invaluable.

Lastly, we have one more question to posit, both for discussion and for the sake of our curiosity and research; how do souls work in your world? If you have information on how your own soul specifically works and are willing to share it, this would help us a lot.

For any of these queries, if you feel more comfortable locking your answer, this is perfectly acceptable and we will take steps to make sure it is as private as possible. Anonymous posting may also be used if you're dubious as to the functionality of the lock system.

I'd say try and experiment to see if you do have it - violet's a color we believe has at least some supernatural basis.

We think there's a meaning, yes. In the past, problems were seen to have cropped up when someone normally with one color was given the fluid of another. Physical problems, and issues with keeping powers in control. We'd like to provoke more discussion on the matter.

Easier said than done, I'm afraid. Like I said, I have no idea how they would work assuming that I do have them.
So I wouldn't even know where to begin with figuring out how to use them.

I see. Interesting.
So what is the prevailing theory then?
Supernatural abilities or is it something more complicated?

Our knowledge of SBURB is limited, so we can't provide any helpful speculation there.

This poll is mostly to find a prevailing theory. Just looking at others' posts here has cued us in on the most common thought on what they are.

It's alright, I figured as much.
To be honest, even having played SBURB I am not sure that I can say my knowledge is much better than limited as well.

Alright, I suppose I will just have to read some of the responses and see what I can piece together.

Maybe you people who've played it could do a similar information pool to what we're trying to do? Figure all this stuff out?
