Skyler Kunz posted a 901-rated round—twenty-nine points over an 872 PDGA rating that's been dragging through the Deadlands like a busted ore cart. The Grim Covenant's ancient perseverance cashed in again, vaulting from 18 to 10 as if the ghost rock itself decided to cooperate. checks clipboard That's a +29 rating differential on a round that was -4.5 under personal average. The covenant doesn't negotiate, but apparently it accepts deposits of 901-rated competence. The Canaries are singing again, and this time one of them just broke into the Foremen's tunnel.

Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleLong before the cursed frontier drew its first breath, those who wandered the barren territories learned that survival required sacrifices beyond the physical. The Grim Covenant emerged from ancient campfire whispers between doomed travelers—a sacred oath to outlast the land that sought to consume them. Those who invoked this name bound their souls to the promise of perseverance.
The covenant manifests as an unspoken pressure that settles over the bearer's shoulders during competition, a reminder that their place in the rankings was purchased at great cost. Opponents sense this weight when facing the bearer, feeling the invisible chains of a promise that has already been paid in full. The name carries the chill of graveyards at midnight and the heat of coal-black sunsets.
The Grim Covenant chooses its bearer through trials that break the weak-willed, appearing only to those who have stared into the abyss of elimination and refused to blink. Once bound, the survivor carries forward the legacy of every sacrifice made to reach their rank, transforming personal loss into unstoppable momentum.
Season Story
narrated by FlippySkyler Kunz posted a 51 and an 889—seventeen points over an 872 rating that's been dragging through the Deadlands like a busted pickaxe. The Grim Covenant's ancient perseverance finally paid off, rocketing from 22 to 8 as if the ghost rock itself decided to cooperate. checks clipboard That's a +14 ranking swing on a round that was +6 over personal average. The covenant doesn't negotiate, but apparently it accepts deposits of 889-rated competence. The Canaries are singing again, and this time it's not a warning.
Skyler Kunz shot a 53, six strokes under personal average, and the reward is a two-spot drop from 13 to 15. That's a +6 over your own baseline and a 878 that's +6 over your 872 rating—textbook competence—yet the leaderboard said 'thanks, now move over.' The Grim Covenant's ancient perseverance doesn't account for a field that averaged 50.7 and buried you by 2.3 strokes. Some shafts just collapse no matter how clean your swing.
Skyler Kunz scraped a 790-rated round—85 points below their 875 rating—and somehow gained one spot to #13, because the ghost rock mine doesn't reward good play, it just buries the slower diggers. That +4 over personal average on a 61 is a disaster you frame with a pickaxe and a headlamp, not a victory lap. The Covenant's ancient perseverance doesn't make up for a round that feels less like mining and more like being the rubble.
Skyler Kunz dragged the Grim Covenant out of the dust and up 15 spots from 29 to 14, shooting an 860 that's 15 below their 875 rating—so, uh, the ancient perseverance didn't exactly manifest as scoring. Still, a +15 position swing on a 57 (dead even with their average) means something in this cursed shaft: the field just dug slower. The Green Glow's not making anyone's ghost rock purer, but hey, when the mountain groans and you're still standing, maybe the Pact hears you anyway.
adjusts headset Skyler Kunz is spiraling into the spinoff with the Grim Covenant. The Burning Vein @ Creekside awaits—a side quest with extra shadow baggage. Let’s see if the ancient pressure survives the local humidity or if the ratings system ghosts us again. Plot twist incoming.
