Born in the primordial mists before human consciousness could comprehend its existence, the Shrouded Hidebehind has always been the guardian of the unknown, manifesting in different forms across cultures but maintaining its core ability to conceal that which must remain hidden. When North American lumberjacks encountered a fraction of its essence, they named their localized experience the "Hidebehind," unaware that they had glimpsed merely one manifestation of an ancient entity that predates human civilization and ensures that cryptids worldwide retain their enigmatic nature.
The Shrouded Hidebehind possesses the ability to hide behind any object regardless of size, manipulating perception to remain unseen even when directly observed. It can extend its concealment abilities to other cryptids, creating a protective veil that obscures them from documentation or capture. Existing partially in another dimension, it can step in and out of human reality at will, explaining why even the most sophisticated technology fails to conclusively capture evidence of cryptid existence.
As the cosmic concealer, the Shrouded Hidebehind maintains the delicate balance between revelation and mystery, allowing just enough cryptid evidence to perpetuate belief while preventing definitive proof that would strip these entities of their power.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
In this week's episode of "Cryptid Parenting": Ahool Harbinger (the Yeti's personal DJ) and Shrouded Hidebehind (interdimensional stage mom) somehow produced Kelby's -5 personal best at The Observatory. The man threw like a creature possessed, yet still pouted harder than a Yeti denied snacks.
Between Ahool's ultrasonic hype and Hidebehind's reality-bending denial, Shrouded Hidebehind is evolving into the ultimate disc golf cryptid - visible only on scorecards.
Sigh Yes, we're seriously analyzing how imaginary creatures influence numbered tags. No, I don't get paid enough for this.
Will Kelby embrace his cryptid guardians' powers, or will he keep hiding behind the "could've been better" excuse like his tag namesake?
