gollark: https://dragcave.net/lineage/fLSJII'm up to 36 generations, two spriters' alts, and I think >3 CB prizes buried in this.
gollark: https://dragcave.net/lineage/YLMo8My lineage project of insanity continues apace. It's a 34th generation thuwed double-saltkin several-prizekin.
gollark: https://dragcave.net/lineage/bWLj8Up to 33G and it's now a Thuwed.
gollark: https://dragcave.net/lineage/pIvuxI give you... a 32G massively inbred multi-prizekin SAltkin.Coming next generation: I breed it with a Thuwed with broken generation count.
