*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*

Convergent Barghest

#37

Origin Story

The Convergent Barghest originated in the misty moorlands of Northern England, where it discovered ancient ley lines connecting all cryptid domains across the world. Through centuries of traversing these metaphysical pathways, it gradually absorbed aspects of each cryptid realm it visited, evolving from a simple spectral hound into a powerful entity that exists at the intersection of all cryptid lore.

Properties

The Convergent Barghest possesses the ability to shift its form between a massive, shadow-black hound and aspects of regional cryptids from across the world, though it always maintains its distinctive glowing eyes that change color based on which cryptid realm it's currently connected to. It leaves distinctive paw prints that transform into the tracks of other cryptids as they age, creating physical evidence of its passage between realms. When moving between domains, the Barghest's form becomes briefly translucent, revealing a cosmic tapestry of interconnected cryptid lore within its shadowy essence.

Role

The Convergent Barghest serves as both sentinel and guide of the metaphysical crossroads connecting all cryptid domains, appearing at pivotal moments in cryptid history to either preserve the boundaries between realms or lead worthy explorers to hidden knowledge that transcends regional cryptid traditions.
