In the spirit of Tabletop Weekend, SpazoidBunny will be doing a 12-hour live stream drawing Extra Life donors’ TTRPG Characters. So, if you’ve ever wanted to flex that your character was drawn by an animator who worked on several shows for a certain famous mouse, here’s your chance. You can reserve your character art on SpazoidBunny’s Extra Life page and watch them bring them to life on April 13th on their Twitch channel.
Speaking of having characters drawn for a D&D game, Aimi Ikari did exactly that in preparation for her Tabletop Weekend D&D Oneshot: The Eroot Nightmare! From tomorrow, 4/5 through 4/19 you can donate to get stickers of all the characters! Join Aimi, SpazoidBunny and friends (including a certain Extra Life community manager) on Aimi Ikari’s Twitch channel and donate to help or hinder their antics!
Join the adventurers from Bostonia! They’ll be playing a one-shot live and all donations affect the outcome of the game! You can choose to assist the party in accomplishing their goals, or hinder them and make their (fictional) lives harder… They don’t mind either one because it costs more to hinder which means more support for Boston Children’s Hospital! They will be playing a brand new TTRPG system called Daggerheart, created by Darrington Press and Critical Role! Watch the action and donate for some chaos Saturday, April 13th, at 1pm EDT. Find all the details on the stream, donation incentives, and even Wild West Dan’s High-Altitude Dice Roll on his Extra Life page!
If you are in the Minneapolis area, join the Extra Life Nerds team at Fulton Taproom (414 6th Ave N, Minneapolis, MN) for some tabletop games and a good time! They will be hosting their event on April 13th and 14th from 1pm to 5pm CDT. For more info visit, www.elnerds.com
Looking to watch more TTRPG streams? Check out ParadiseCityGirl’s Tabletop Appreciate Oneshot! You can donate to affect the players on their quest to help their friend. You can choose to help or hinder them on their adventures!
You can also join #TeamBigBite for their Tabletop Block Party! We’re sure it will be a fun time so check it out!
These are just a few of the Extra Lifers supporting their local CMN member hospital while celebrating Tabletop Games throughout April 12th-14th!
