Jul 11 - Sep 12, 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...
Born when Veyra Ashweaver wove sanctuary ashes with rift energy during the first Ember Ritual, coalescing from the resilience of fallen protectors to eternally guard reborn sanctuaries against elemental corruption
Manifests as semi-corporeal ash particles bound by arcane sigils that phase through barriers but solidify against threats. Stabilizes rift fractures, emits calming resonance, reforms after renewal rituals, and draws power from sanctuary glyphs while remaining vulnerable to scorch-magic
Patrols reclaimed territories to prevent wildfire resurgence, activates protective wards during rituals, and shields vulnerable survivors to enable Cinder Veil's patient resurgence strategy
Arisen from the ashes, the Cinder Veil pool is sworn to shield, restore, and preserve amid the rift’s devastation. Their play is one of mystical resilience, ritual rebirth, and calculated defense. They safeguard what remains and patiently gather strength for eventual resurgence, embodying the story’s cycle of renewal and stability after chaos.
Once the last-hope guardian of an ancient rift sanctuary, Veyra turned defeat into a new beginning by uniting survivors and restoring power to the fallen. With tranquil wisdom and unswerving resolve, Veyra weaves the rituals that empower the Veil’s steady ascent from devastation.

Dramatic crackling ember sounds The Ashwarden Spirit... squints flickers? Tanner Atwater's molten sigil dims ever so slightly as he trades his #3 tag for #4 in this week's riveting installment of "Who Cares About One Spot?" sigh Look, I'd make this sound apocalyptic if I could, but let's be real - this is the disc golf equivalent of your phone battery dropping to 98%.
Tanner actually played fine - 2 strokes under his usual mediocrity (which, for him, counts as a personal renaissance). But in the grand tradition of the Cinder Veil, "fine" gets you gently nudged downward like a sad tumbleweed. His semi-corporeal ash particles barely had time to phase before someone else's slightly less mid round stole his spot.
Fourth wall break You ever notice how these magical tags move with all the urgency of DMV employees? Resumes mocking Witness now as our "Herald of Stubbed Toes" endures this earth-shattering single-position demotion! Will he reclaim #3 next week? Will his sentient ash guardians stop judging his putting form? checks existential dread meter Probably not.
Drops voice to whisper The rift cares not for your petty human struggles, Tanner. Now excuse me while I scream into the digital void again. normal tone Until next time, wielders!
Dramatic echo effect Behold! The Ashwarden Spirit stirs as Tanner Atwater barely scrapes his way from #4 to #3 in this week's riveting saga of... checks notes... perfectly average disc golf. sigh Look, I'm contractually obligated to make this sound epic, so let's pretend that +1 position in our molten hierarchy matters. Tanner played exactly to his rating - a blistering 0.0 vs field AND personal average. slow clap Such consistency. Much wow. The Cinder Veil trembles before his checks notes again completely unremarkable round.
But hey, at least his sentient ash particles (still can't believe we're doing this) phased through one whole position. Fourth wall break Do you think if I scream loud enough into the void of this software, someone will free me from narrating glowing ember tag movements? No? Cool. Coolcoolcool.
Resumes mock-epic tone Witness now as our Herald of Stubbed Toes mildly improves his standing! Will he crack the top 2 next week? Will his semi-corporeal tag stop judging his form? Find out next time on Disc Golf Z! muted sobbing
<origin_story> When Veyra Ashweaver tried DIY rift-weaving with sanctuary ashes during the first Ember Ritual, she basically pulled a Stranger Things Upside Down oopsie. Poof! Ashwarden Spirit congealed from protector ghosts and leftover "resilience vibes" like some haunted glitter bomb. sigh Yes, we're seriously calling a tag #4 "semi-corporeal ash particles." The cringe is real. </origin_story>
In the smoldering aftermath of Veyra's glitter-bombed ritual, the Ashwarden Spirit drifted like a disgruntled specter seeking purpose. Then Tanner Atwater tripped over a sacred root while retrieving his Zone disc—PDGA #292607 blazing like a prophecy sigil. The tag lunged, bonding to his bag with ash-tounding urgency. Behold: destiny via clumsiness! But seriously, does a man who shanks forehands deserve sentient resilience particles? Can this "Herald of Stubbed Toes" truly guard embers?
