6All-In league: Dust Sentinel stays with its holder — only its number moves with each week's standings.
Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleBefore the Salt Lake Accords were signed, before the factions organized, there were simply the original courses—dusty, windswept, and imbued with the raw magic of competitive spirit. The Dust Sentinel coalesced from this primordial playing ground: the first dust kicked up on the first tee, the first grit in the first bunker. It is among the oldest entities in the league.
A rough, granular form that appears as a standing figure made of compacted dirt, sand, and aged organic matter. Its 'features' are worn smooth by time—two hollows for eyes, a suggestion of a nose, and a crack that might be a mouth. It smells of ancient sun-baked earth and forgotten tournaments.
It enforces the most fundamental rules: honest play, proper scoring, and the integrity of the rating system. Unlike the Ink Serpent's passive documentation, the Dust Sentinel actively intervenes when it senses cheating, sandbagging, or rating manipulation. Its interventions are rare but final—some players have been 'dust-marked' and quietly banned from the league.
Season Story
narrated by Flippychecks clipboard twice Nicole Galindo carded 115 at Mehraban against a field average of 82.5 — a -172 round rating and 32.5 strokes over the field — and still left Friday night holding tag 2 instead of tag 6. Four positions gained on that arithmetic is exactly the kind of loophole the Wetland Crypt seems willing to open. The Dust Sentinel's grit has never graded on scorecards; it grades on who's still standing in the soft fairways when the reeds settle, and their residue rides on.
