Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Due to absence from Week 5 (Odin's Gambit), tag number moved from 18 to 18. (Week 5 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...
The Runic Thunderbird was born from the union of Norse runic magic and the spirit of the Native American Thunderbird. Created by Sigrid the Wise during a ritual to commune with ancient spirits, it serves as a bridge between the arcane knowledge of the Norse and the primal power of cryptids. Its creation marked a turning point in the Rune Seekers' quest, providing them with a powerful ally in their fight against the Kraken.
The Runic Thunderbird possesses the ability to channel runic energy into powerful bursts of lightning, which it uses to both defend and attack. Its feathers are inscribed with ancient runes that glow with arcane power, and its eyes can see through illusions and deceptions. The Thunderbird is also capable of flight at incredible speeds, allowing it to scout vast areas and deliver messages quickly.
The Runic Thunderbird acts as a scout, messenger, and mystical guide for the Rune Seekers. It uses its abilities to gather intelligence, interpret ancient texts, and predict the Kraken's movements, making it an essential part of the faction's strategy.
The Rune Seekers are a group of Viking scholars, sages, and explorers who believe that the key to defeating the Kraken lies in uncovering ancient artifacts and deciphering the secrets of the runes. They prioritize knowledge, wisdom, and cunning over brute force, and their understanding of the arcane arts gives them a unique advantage in the hunt for the Kraken.
Sigrid the Wise is a renowned Viking sage and scholar who leads the Rune Seekers. With an unparalleled understanding of the runes and a keen intellect, Sigrid has dedicated her life to unraveling the mysteries of the gods and the Kraken. Her wisdom, foresight, and mastery of the arcane make her an invaluable asset in the hunt for the legendary beast.

Behold, the Runic Thunderbird - born when a Viking sage accidentally spilled their mead on a Ouija board during a Netflix binge of Thor: Ragnarok. Now this electrified chicken roosts in our league, pretending it’s not just a glorified bottle opener. Skål? More like sigh.
The Runic Thunderbird, still sticky from its mead-soaked Ouija board birth, scanned the mortal realm for its first bearer. It spotted John Paulson (PDGA #111613), a man whose 899 rating screamed "mediocre Viking." Legend says the tag chose him after he three-putted a 15-footer, proving he could handle the Thunderbird's stormy temperament. But can this modern-day Leif Erikson navigate the Kraken's wrath without losing his disc in the drink? Skål or fail?
