Due to absence from Week 8 (Nessie's Nemesis), tag number moved from 17 to 21. (Week 8 of 8)
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...
Born from the collective consciousness of generations of cryptid researchers, the Abyssal Archivist coalesced in the ocean's deepest trenches before migrating to Loch Ness, drawn by the growing concentration of cryptid energy in the area.
A semi-corporeal being that shifts between physical and spectral forms, containing swirling bioluminescent runes that constantly rearrange to record information. It can project holographic images of cryptid sightings and communicate psychically with dedicated researchers.
Serves as a living library of cryptid knowledge, selectively sharing information with the Seekers of the Serpent while testing their resolve and commitment to uncovering the truth about aquatic cryptids.
The Seekers of the Serpent are a group of disc golfers obsessed with uncovering the truth behind the Loch Ness monster. They believe that Nessie holds the key to unlocking incredible power and knowledge, and they will stop at nothing to unravel her mysteries. The Seekers are known for their relentless curiosity, their willingness to take risks, and their unconventional approach to the game. They embrace the chaos and uncertainty of the Highland courses, seeing them as a means to test their mettle and prove their worth.
Dr. Eliza Blackwood is a brilliant but eccentric cryptozoologist who has dedicated her life to the study of legendary creatures. She first became fascinated with Nessie as a child, and has spent years chasing leads and conducting research around Loch Ness. Eliza is a charismatic and driven leader, inspiring the Seekers with her passion and determination. She believes that the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe lies in the unraveling of ancient mysteries like the Loch Ness monster.
Due to absence from Week 8 (Nessie's Nemesis), tag number moved from 17 to 21. (Week 8 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 7 (Tempest Tee), tag number moved from 17 to 17. (Week 7 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 6 (Urquhart's Uprising), tag number moved from 15 to 17. (Week 6 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 5 (Sunken Stones), tag number moved from 12 to 15. (Week 5 of 8)
The Abyssal Archivist emerged from the primordial soup of Loch Ness when a drunken cryptozoologist dropped their iPhone 12 into the murky depths. As the phone sank, its TikTok algorithm merged with ancient Celtic runes, birthing this semi-corporeal being. Now it floats around recording cryptid sightings like some aquatic Instagram influencer. Because apparently, even mythical creatures need content.
When Brian Bowling (PDGA #267452) first cast his disc into the misty loch, the Abyssal Archivist stirred from its TikTok-induced slumber. Drawn by his uncanny ability to lose discs in water hazards (a true "hole-in-one" for Nessie's collection), the tag deemed him worthy. But can a man who once threw a putter into a tree really be trusted with ancient cryptid secrets?
