Personnel

gollark: Someone wants "rarest egg or hatchling in dragon cave" for a messy 9G gold.
gollark: Does anyone have description-writing advice, also? I eventually want to describe all my dragons, but that will obviously take a while, and it takes me ages to generate ideas.
gollark: On salt infernos: it sounds unrealistic, but if you get enough salt it might undergo gravitational collapse and fuse.
gollark: But Suggestions/Requests is very exciting. Drama round every corner.
gollark: Site Discussion? Mostly quite boring.
