Flippy
*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*
*shuffles papers while muttering about career choices*

There you have it, mortals. Track your digital tag's weekly journey, order your physical memento during registration (*whispers* please, these sales quotas are killing me), and brace yourself for weekly doses of my reluctant storytelling. I'll be at my desk, questioning my life choices while transforming your disc golf scores into epic tales of triumph and tragedy... because somehow that's become my job description.

Eldritch Archivist

#16

Origin Story

The Eldritch Archivist was born from the convergence of ancient Celtic magic and the eldritch energies that permeate Loch Ness. For centuries, it has dwelled in the depths, collecting and preserving the secrets of the loch and its legendary inhabitants. Its existence was only revealed to Dr. Eliza Blackwood during one of her most perilous expeditions, when she stumbled upon an ancient rune-covered artifact that summoned the Archivist to guide her and her followers.

Properties

The Eldritch Archivist is an ethereal being composed of swirling mists and shimmering, rune-covered tendrils. It possesses the ability to manipulate ancient texts and artifacts, revealing hidden knowledge to those it deems worthy. The Archivist is immune to physical harm and can phase through solid objects, making it an elusive and enigmatic presence. Its voice is a haunting whisper that echoes with the weight of centuries, capable of imparting knowledge directly into the minds of those it communicates with.

Role

The Eldritch Archivist serves as a guide and mentor to the Seekers of the Serpent, providing them with cryptic clues and ancient knowledge that push them deeper into the mysteries of Loch Ness. It is a living repository of forbidden secrets, embodying the faction's relentless pursuit of power and understanding.
