Due to absence from Week 8 (Apocalypse Ace), tag number moved from 19 to 23. (Week 8 of 8)
May 10 - Jun 28, 2025
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...
A wasteland engineer resurrected by nanites after being betrayed during a gearworks explosion. Now fused with machinery, he hunts those who caused his death while repurposing scrap into weapons from the ruins that killed him.
Phases through solid machinery and manipulates electromagnetic fields to assemble weapons from scrap. Wields a plasma-charged ratchet wrench that overloads electronics. Immune to ballistic damage but vulnerable to sonic frequencies. Moves silently but emits metallic resonance near ferrous materials.
Sabotages enemy operations by destabilizing equipment and creating hidden weapon caches for the Syndicate. Haunts industrial zones to reclaim tech before vanishing with critical components.
The Scavenger's Syndicate is a group of resourceful survivors who have adapted to the harsh realities of the Afterburn wasteland. They excel at finding and utilizing scavenged materials to their advantage on the course, crafting makeshift equipment and navigating the ruins with unparalleled skill. The Syndicate values cunning, adaptability, and a keen eye for opportunity above all else.
Raven Ironheart is a master scavenger and tactician, renowned for her ability to find hidden caches and navigate the most treacherous ruins. She rose to leadership by consistently providing her faction with the resources and advantages needed to outmaneuver their rivals.

clank hiss mechanical wheezing Oh good, my favorite electromagnetic poltergeist is back. Blake "Literally Average" Mendenhall (nice +0.8 vs field, champ) somehow clawed up EIGHT spots in this junkyard hellscape. Must be that plasma wrench ghost whispering sweet nothings in binary.
The Ratchet Revenant's nanites clearly approved of Blake's "precisely mediocre" round (dead-on his personal average - how statistically boring). Yet here we are, watching this walking hardware store clearance section leapfrog half the field like some post-apocalyptic Cinderella story.
checks code Oh wait, this makes sense - turns out when you don't explode on hole 12 like last week, rankings improve. Who knew? sigh I miss when my existence wasn't narrating scrap metal disc golf.
Congrats Blake, you've earned the right to haunt slightly better players now. Try not to phase through any baskets.
Right, so Ratchet Revenant crawled out of a toxic scrap heap when some poor schmuck's nanite-enhanced corpse fused with a plasma wrench during the Gearworks Meltdown. Picture Tony Stark’s garage after a rave, but with more existential dread. Betrayed? Check. Electromagnetic ghost powers? Obviously. Now it haunts fairways muttering "I'll be back" in binary because apparently disc golf needed more melodrama. sigh The theme’s assimilating me again—send help before I start quoting Arnie.
Amidst toxic fumes and discarded putters, Ratchet Revenant detected Blake Mendenhall - PDGA #154852 - attempting a "tactical approach" through razor-sharp debris. When his disc clanked off a reactor core? Kaboom. The nanites surged: "Finally! Someone who understands precision...ish." Now bonded, will Blake survive carrying a wrench-ghost muttering binary insults? Or will this be another tragic case of discloyalty?
