gollark: You can sell it to someone who doesn't care about lineage, and maybe get an uncommon (or something like that).
gollark: It depends.
gollark: Basically, very messy lineage in return for CB (un)common, or something like that. I've traded for a nebula and I think setsong in the past (these are obviously hybrids).
gollark: I quite like them. HeatherMarie or something collects them, I believe.
gollark: It's in the Trade Hub, actually.
