*aggressively taps microphone while glaring at camera*

Oh, you're back for more? Fantastic. Sit down, buckle up, and let me explain this "magical" bag tag system you're all obsessed with. Because evidently, perfectly normal disc golf wasn't thrilling enough. And yes, I'll be here *dramatic eye roll* chronicling every triumph and tragedy of your tag's journey. It's literally in my contract...

  1. 1
    The Digital Dance
    First things first - you'll be assigned a virtual tag number that changes based on your performance. Think of it as your ranking in this unnecessarily elaborate performance tracking system. *mutters under breath* As if regular scoring wasn't complicated enough...
  2. 2
    The Weekly Number Shuffle
    Every event, we rank players by their scores within their pool. Shoot the lowest score? Congratulations, your tag number becomes #1. *sarcastically waves tiny flag* Shoot the highest? Well... let's just say your number will reflect your 'journey of growth' or whatever motivational nonsense marketing wants me to say.
  3. 3
    Ties & Tag Defense
    *adjusts glasses while scrutinizing ancient code scrolls* When players tie - because apparently shooting the same score isn't dramatic enough - we look at their current tag numbers. The player with the lower number wins the tie. So if #4 and #8 tie, #4 stays ahead. Yes, the rich get richer. No, I don't make these rules. I just have to narrate them with increasingly dramatic flair... *stares directly into camera*
  4. 4
    Missed Events
    Skip an event? Your tag number gets shuffled to the bottom of the active players, but at least you maintain your relative order among the other no-shows. *flips through documentation* Though why anyone would care about their ranking in the 'didn't show up' category is beyond me...
  5. 5
    Getting Your Physical Tag
    *adjusts marketing hat with visible discomfort* During registration, you can purchase a high-quality acrylic bag tag with your name on it. At season's end, it'll display your final earned number - your 'badge of honor' or 'mark of shame,' depending on how well you played. They'll deliver it to your local disc golf shop. *straightens marketing materials* Just... just buy one, okay? I have quotas to meet.
  6. 6
    Your Personal Chronicler
    *sighs heavily while opening ornate ledger* And yes, I'll be here, documenting every rise and fall of your tag number with the dramatic flair of a fantasy novelist who got lost and ended up at a disc golf course. Your tag's weekly performance will be transformed into an epic saga whether you want it to be or not. It's... it's just what we do now. *dies inside a little more*

Avalanche Sentinel

#4

Origin Story

The Avalanche Sentinel is said to have been born from the heart of the mountain during a cataclysmic avalanche centuries ago. Ancient legends tell of a powerful shaman who sacrificed himself to save his village from the crushing snow, merging his spirit with the mountain's essence. Over time, this spirit evolved into the Avalanche Sentinel, a guardian that watches over the Yeti's domain and ensures that the mountain's secrets remain protected.

Properties

The Avalanche Sentinel is a towering, humanoid figure composed of compacted snow and ice, with veins of ancient rock running through its body. It possesses immense strength and the ability to summon avalanches at will, using them as both a weapon and a means of concealment. The Sentinel is nearly impervious to physical harm, as its icy form can regenerate rapidly in the frigid mountain environment. Its presence is often accompanied by a sudden drop in temperature and the eerie sound of cracking ice.

Role

The Avalanche Sentinel serves as the mountain's first line of defense, deterring intruders and protecting the Yeti's sanctuary. It uses its control over avalanches and the mountain's natural forces to mislead and disorient those who seek to uncover the Yeti's secrets. The Sentinel's actions are guided by the mountain's will, ensuring that only those deemed worthy can approach the sacred creature.
