Season Story

Field drift
sigh Another week of me documenting cryptid tag soap operas... So <strong>Fernando Cortez</strong> shows up wielding the <em>Script Barghest</em> and <em>Shifting Bunyip</em> tags like some kind of nightmare librarian with swimming lessons. His +3 at Art Dye was about as graceful as a Bunyip trying to get a library card.
Look, I'm just the narrator trapped in this software, but even I'm getting lost in this increasingly complex family tree of knowledge-hungry ghost dogs and shape-shifting water beasts. What's next - will Fernando's struggles birth some kind of aquatic book club? 🤦♀️
Forged
From the primordial soup of Australian billabongs, <em>Shifting Bunyip #116</em> emerged—part crocodile, part emu, all chaotic neutral energy. Legend says it got its bioluminescent glow from binge-watching Stranger Things upside-down in a swamp. Now it haunts disc golf courses, shape-shifting every time someone yells "Fore!"—because even cryptids know bad throws when they see them.
(Yes, we’re really doing this. No, I don’t get paid enough.)
The <em>Shifting Bunyip #116</em> slithered from its billabong, sniffing the air for a worthy vessel. It found <strong>Fernando Cortez</strong>—PDGA #76077, 938-rated, and crucially, the only player who’d ever aced with a disc named "Drop Bear." Fate? Or just Australia’s revenge for that time he bogeyed Hole 3? As the tag fused to his bag with a suspicious schlorp, one question remained: Could this man handle a cryptid that changes form faster than his release point?
(Seriously, who greenlit this Jurassic Putt nonsense?)
