Lore

Lore is the story of surviv. The official lore is not yet released but many came up with theories. Special thanks to Jess, Aimbot, Eyyy, Oofer, Slippingbug, Cookieguy, and NinthLyfe for contributing to the Lore Dump where I plagiarized got most of the information from.

Bunkers

 * Bunker 1 (Unknown) - Potentially a headquarters bunker. Some important letters are addressed to “One”.
 * Bunker 2 (Swine) - Almost no information. Dr. Chandler Tallow presents in yet-undiscovered orientation video.
 * Bunker 3 (Hydra) - 3 entrances, 7 rooms. The second-largest bunker on the island. Presumably built by Kuga Heavy Industries. Primary function is research into physical and mental enhancement through poultry-based applications. The serum developed here provides “survivrs” with enhanced strength, speed, pain resistance, and appears to have the side effect of poor vision. Weapons closet was used as temporary storage for PARMA Department of Advanced Weapons while awaiting the completion of Hatchet. Multiple test subjects in cryostasis chambers across main room. Cryostasis chambers and subsystems provided by USSR Academy of Sciences. Research Assistant Dr. Chandler Tallow worked here. 3 ways in, just like the 3 heads of a Hydra.
 * Bunker 4 (Crossing) - 4 entrances, 5 rooms. Situated underneath a moderately wide river with entrances at both sides. Seems to be a living quarters. Dr. Chandler Tallow presents orientation video recorded in 1984. Two bunker occupants were to constantly run a duos simulation after the Accident occurred. A chicken dinner was to be won every 108 minutes, and the duo took a shift of 540 days. (That’s 7200 chicken dinners.) He notes that entering the simulation will allow you to get those 7200 chicken dinners, but the developers confirmed themselves that surviv.io is not a simulation.
 * Bunker 5 (Hatchet) - 1 entrance, 4 rooms. Located underneath logging camp. Site for the PARMA Department of Advanced Weapons. Contains several Hatchet crates, which store advanced weapons.
 * Bunker 6 (Harpsichord) - Almost no information. Researcher Dr. [REDACTED]s worked here, implying Harpsichord is used for research.
 * Bunker 7 (Caduceus) - Almost no information. As the caduceus is the symbol of Hermes, it is speculated to be related to communication. As the caduceus is very often improperly used to refer to medicine, it could also be related to medicine. Is this where our meds come from in the game?
 * Bunker 8 (Egg) - 1 entrance, 1 room. Appears to be a survival bunker, complete with 4 weapons and assorted equipment. Five Initiative scientists sheltered in the Bunker during the Soviet Incursion. They voted 3 to 2 to try to obtain more food supplies, and Dr. Jackson left Egg for this on April 15, 1993. Contact was lost 50 minutes later. Four survivors voted unanimously to seal bunker hatch and await PI extraction. On April 22, 1993, Dr. Richards presumably committed suicide via cyanide poisoning. On April 26, 1993, out of food and water, the 3 surviving scientists Dr. Nick, Dr. Justin, and “Dr. [REDACTED]s” elected to destroy test subject data and recordings and commit suicide with cyanide.
 * Bunker 9 (Cloud) - Almost no information. It was originally in #art.
 * Bunker 10 (Storm) - 1 entrance, 2 rooms. Little information. Several control panels are present. Many theorize that the Storm is related to the redzone. Justin has hinted that eventually there will be a way to activate the control panel.
 * Bunker 11 (Unknown)
 * Bunker 12 (Conch) - 2 entrances, 3 rooms. Built by PI DOE. Submerged and partially flooded. Has 2 entrances and 3 lockers. Conch crates sometimes appear at the island’s docks. This could suggest a storage role.
 * Bunker 13 (Unknown)
 * Bunker 14 (Unknown)
 * Bunker 15 (Meteor) - Airdrops dropped by PARMA aircraft bear the Meteor logo. Interestingly, “Ryusei” means “shooting star” in Japanese. Meteor is likely not physically located on the island. PARMA appears to maintain a presence at Meteor, although they are now seemingly off the island. Airdrop parachutes have great resemblance to the Chrysanthemum symbol.
 * Bunker 16 (Chrysanthemum) - 1 entrance, 4 rooms. Built by Kuga Heavy Industries underneath a greenhouse. Stated purpose was a “proof-of-concept” bunker. A couch and television conceal a hidden door, which was not discovered by PARMA during their inspection. The door can be opened by pressing the buttons 1-4 in Japanese (and Simplified Mandarin, they both use the same characters for 1-4). Inside the next room is another puzzle, which can be solved by pressing the icons matching the order of the Japanese calendar. Behind the third door lies three wheels. One has snow under it, one has sand underneath it, and one has grass underneath it.
 * Bunker 17 (Fowl) - Almost no information. Speculated to be a food/supplies storage bunker. Most likely situated close to Egg. Dr. Jackson attempted to reach Fowl to obtain food supplies on April 15, 1993 from Egg, contact was lost 50 minutes later. A fowl is a bird, so there may be some connection with poultry. Claimed by Russia weeks ago after Log 11 was created.
