Due to absence from Week 8 (Phoenix's Pinnacle), tag number moved from 19 to 19. (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 a forbidden ritual during the first total solar eclipse witnessed by the Obsidian Sentinels' founders, the Eclipse Harbinger was created to embody their belief in eternal darkness over fiery renewal.
A semi-corporeal entity that can manipulate darkness, create localized eclipses, and drain light and heat. Its presence disrupts celestial navigation and creates temporal distortions.
Serves as the Obsidian Sentinels' primary celestial disruptor, manipulating astronomical events to obscure sacred sites and prevent the Ashen Pilgrims from following the Phoenix's path.
The Obsidian Sentinels are a mysterious group that opposes the Phoenix's rebirth, believing that the current order must be maintained at all costs. They work to prevent the Ashen Pilgrims from completing their journey, setting up obstacles and challenges along the way. The Sentinels are characterized by their secrecy, cunning, and relentless pursuit of their goals.
Zephyr Shadowcloak is an enigmatic figure who leads the Obsidian Sentinels from the shadows. Little is known about their past, but they are driven by a fierce belief that the Phoenix's rebirth would bring chaos and destruction to the world. Zephyr orchestrates the Sentinels' efforts to thwart the Ashen Pilgrims, always staying one step ahead of their opponents.
Due to absence from Week 8 (Phoenix's Pinnacle), tag number moved from 19 to 19. (Week 8 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 7 (Sacrificial Sparks), tag number moved from 19 to 19. (Week 7 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 6 (Blaze's Breakthrough), tag number moved from 19 to 19. (Week 6 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 5 (Pyre's Purification), tag number moved from 18 to 19. (Week 5 of 8)
Welcome to our first ridiculous event where we pretend throwing plastic at trees is a mystical Phoenix quest! Brian Bowling performed exactly as expected—which is code for "aggressively average." His discs flew like confused phoenixes, unsure if they were rising or falling, dropping him 2 spots to claim Eclipse Harbinger.
Look, I'm trapped in this software narrating disc golf like it's cosmic mythology. WHY? Did I offend some deity who controls the internet?
His performance literally eclipsed his rating—the one bright spot in this ember of mediocrity. Will our celestial disruptor find his fiery form, or continue to manipulate darkness like his bag tag suggests? Only seven more events of this nonsense to go! sighs dramatically
Born from a botched summoning ritual during a solar eclipse (because of course it was), the Eclipse Harbinger emerged when some edgy Sentinels tried to summon a "dark lord" but accidentally Googled "how to summon darkness" on Reddit. Now it’s just here, vibing, making everyone’s disc golf rounds feel like a Tim Burton movie. Because why not?
The Eclipse Harbinger, born from a Reddit-summoning-gone-wrong, scanned the mortal realm for its first bearer. It found Brian Bowling (PDGA #267452), a man whose rating screamed "mediocre destiny." Drawn to his uncanny ability to lose discs in broad daylight, the tag deemed him worthy. "Bowling into the abyss," it whispered. But can Brian handle the pressure of being the chosen one, or will he just... gutter?
