[anonymous text] IS ♞ EVEN ON THE NETWORK'S CHARACTER MAP || 003

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.

That's right.

No. They're murdered. A lot of 'kidnapped' or 'missing child' cases are actually the result of that market.

Sorry, I thought you meant remove it without hurting the person. Yeah, they can transport it, usually by sticking it in an object. And they do it because it's a huge power boost if you don't have to worry about draining it dry. It doesn't last forever, though. Once it's used up if you want the same amount of power you'd have to use another one.

[sup Jin just gonna preempt you on this one]

what happens when it runs out? it's just gone?
hachitaro: (down.)

[personal profile] hachitaro 2012-08-09 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
From what I've heard, yes. I've never actually used one myself. I've had one, but I got it out of my possession as fast as I could.

It's before the decrease begins. Before the age of seven or so there's not enough built up energy.

Someone I knew once described it as letting fruit ripen, which while completely disgusting is a more or less accurate description.
hachitaro: (danger.)

I figured it was still anon because Jin being polite what is that.

... No problem.
