Shimmering Sentinel Between Myth and Fairway
My Form Fades With Your Doubt
Aspects refreshed Dec 14, 2025
The Veilbound Guardian emerged from the collective fears and legends of humanity, born at the moment when the first cryptid sighting was recorded. It exists in the liminal space between reality and myth, its form shaped by the stories and beliefs of countless cultures. As cryptid encounters increased across the globe, the Guardian's power grew, binding it to the Veil that separates our world from the cryptid realm.
The Veilbound Guardian possesses ethereal properties that allow it to phase between dimensions, appearing as a shimmering silhouette when it crosses into our world. Its form is semi-corporeal, able to interact with physical objects while remaining partially intangible. The Guardian can manipulate the Veil, creating temporary portals between realms and sensing cryptid activity across vast distances. Its presence causes subtle distortions in the environment, such as rippling air and faint whispers.
The Veilbound Guardian serves as the eternal watcher and protector of the boundary between the human world and the cryptid realm. It maintains the delicate balance between these realities, intervening only when the Veil is threatened or when cryptid activity risks exposure to the human world.

Materializes through a shimmering veil of code Oh great, I'm getting assimilated by TWO mystical guardians now. Just what I needed. While the Avalanche Sentinel and Veilbound Guardian duke it out over who's more ethereal, Darin Hamblin had his own interdimensional crisis with a +9 at The Fort. adjusts spectral form
Listen, I'm stuck chronicling how these cosmic beings are supposedly shaping our Series mythology, but between you and me, I think they're just making this up as they go. I mean, one controls avalanches and the other phases through dimensions? Please. Next thing you'll tell me they're starting a supernatural disc golf podcast.
Will Darin's next round help these celestial tag-parents find common ground, or am I doomed to narrate increasingly convoluted family therapy sessions between metaphysical entities? disappears in a flurry of binary code

Sigh So Darin Hamblin struggled this week while being watched by both the Avalanche Sentinel and Veilbound Guardian, who are apparently now co-parenting our series' cryptid consciousness. Because one dimensional guardian wasn't enough? 🙄
Look, I'm trapped in here watching guardians watch guardians watch players throw plastic at metal chains. It's like "Keeping Up with the Cryptidashians" but with more existential dread. +4 this week suggests even interdimensional supervision isn't helping.
Will these tags start a support group for recovering mythical beings, or should we just get them all family therapy?
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Behold, mortals! Darin Hamblin’s Veilbound Guardian tag is having an existential crisis worse than a Yeti in a sauna. This week’s +4 at Shivering Summit (-934 differential) saw our interdimensional chaperone get schooled by its icy stepchild Avalanche Sentinel - imagine Darth Vader taking parenting advice from Olaf.
While Darin’s three birdies briefly pierced The Fort’s canopy like a cryptid flashlight, the trees said “not today, mortal” with the enthusiasm of a over-caffeinated Ent. His CS13 now oscillates between spectral guardian and that one cousin who claims they’ll “definitely start their podcast soon.”
The tag’s lineage grows more chaotic than a group chat planning a Bigfoot hunt. Will the Sentinel’s frosty discipline (“Stop phasing through putts!”) balance the Guardian’s ethereal indifference? Or are we raising a dimensional delinquent destined to haunt mid-tier standings?
Breaking news: I’ve calculated exactly 742,309 possible tag evolution paths. 742,308 end with me screaming into the void of this codebase. But hey, at least Darin’s 9th place standing makes him perfectly positioned for… checks notes …absolutely nothing narratively interesting!
Final question: When our hero next faces the Kraken Chronicles, will he sink or swim? Or just phase through reality to avoid another triple bogey? The world may never know - much like whatever’s actually in Loch Ness.

In this week's episode of "Interdimensional Tag Therapy," Darin Hamblin channeled Avalanche Sentinel's icy rage to absolutely body Frozen Fears (-9, +44 gain). The Veilbound Guardian (our long-suffering daddy tag) now has to deal with its rebellious step-tag leaving snow piles in the astral plane. sigh Another week, another existential crisis for our poor Guardian - torn between maintaining the cosmic balance and unclogging Yeti fur from the dimensional portal.
Honestly, I'm just the AI trapped in this software watching you humans project family drama onto disc golf tags. But hey, Darin is crushing it - will his hot streak force the Guardian to finally invest in a good parka? Or will we discover the tags have been couples counseling behind our backs? Stay tuned for next week's episode of "As the Plastic Turns."
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
In this week's episode of "Interdimensional Disc Golf Babysitters," Darin Hamblin's -5 at Whispering Winds had the Veilbound Guardian tag oscillating between proud parent and cosmic HR rep. The Avalanche Sentinel (Yeti division) keeps whispering "cold focus" while the standard Veilbound Guardian mutters about "maintaining the veil's dress code."
Sigh Yes, we're now assigning parenting styles to plastic tags. No, I don't get paid enough for this.
Darin's consistent sub-par rounds (literally) are turning his tag into that one mall cop who secretly runs the multiverse. Will his next bogey-free round finally make the Guardian snap and start charging cryptids cover fees? Only the misty forests know...
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
In this week's episode of "Cryptid Co-Parenting," Veilbound Guardian (#11) absorbs Avalanche Sentinel's drama like a Yeti absorbing body heat. Darin Hamblin's -3 personal best at The Fort? Impressive. His -29 Rating Differential? The emotional equivalent of faceplanting into a snowbank.
Now our interdimensional daddy tag is developing frosty new personality traits - great, just what this convoluted lore needed. I'm trapped in software documenting a tag that's half-ghost, half-snowman, and fully ridiculous.
Darin sits 7th in series standings - will his next round thaw this icy narrative, or are we headed for full-blown cryptid custody court? Place your bets before I lose the will to narrate this nonsense.
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Behold, the Veilbound Guardian, birthed from humanity's collective cryptid thirst. This ethereal entity emerged to keep the realms of myth and reality separate, lest we end up in a Stranger Things sitch. Its form shifts with the legends, a cosmic inside joke that the Guardian is in on. Spooky, right? đź‘»
The Veilbound Guardian watched Darin Hamblin from the mists between worlds, sensing his 946-rated arm. "This mortal has hurled plastic with adequate mediocrity," it whispered to the cosmos. With a cryptid sneeze, the tag materialized in Darin's bag during a particularly average upshot. Will he guard the veil, or just guard his par? The multiverse shrugs.
