WHAT: Geek & Sundry’s Twitch channel celebrates three years with an innovative RPG 3-shot to raise money for the non-profit 826LA, which is dedicated to supporting students ages 6 to 18 with their creative and expository writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write. A 3-shot is three different adventures for six new characters G&S has created just for this event. Each character will be portrayed by a different actor in each game, which means three different takes on each character by a trio of actors who have worked collectively to bring them to life. The adventures are set at the beginning, middle and end of the heroes’ journey, so there will be a complete story, from the choice to take up arms against evil, to death, or retirement – however these characters go out! Essentially, three different games over 12 hours featuring the same characters played by different actors, with the actors playing each character at a different time in their life. That’s 3 separate games. 3 dungeon masters. 6 characters but 18 players. All over 12 hours celebrating 3 years and 100s of hours of content!
