Hyperborea-1

Hyperborea-1 is a weird timeline straight out of the pages of the pulp fantasy stories of Clark Ashton Smith. When the timeline was first discovered by Infinity, it was first labeled as a geographically and evolutionarily divergent parallel, but Infinity opened it up for limited colonization five years ago (there were unsettled continents in the Western Hemisphere). Since then though, Infinity has noticed that geological and evolutionary changes occur at 10x the speed of Homeline, as the children of a group of colonists which practices selective breeding have experienced profound changes (the equivalent of ten generations of selective breeding in one generation).
