Bid to become a Tabula Rasa NPC, it's for charity!

The fine folks over at Destination Games are throwing their lot into the charity ring this holiday season with a few auctions full of Tabula Rasa goodies sure to make any gamer's non-denominational season celebration all the sweeter. The proceeds will be going to the charity of champions -- Child's Play. If you aren't already aware, Child's Play is a charity originally organized by the guys over at Penny Arcade to buy toys (video games and more traditional fare) for sick kids in partner hospitals across the country.

On the docket:

  • Two separate auctions (found here and here) for a copy Tabula Rasa signed by Richard Garriott w/ TR dog tags from E3 '06, a developer Tabula Rasa challenge coin, an AFS clearance card, and a picture of Richard Garriott in his goofy magician's outfit.

  • An NPC named after the auction winner to be placed in the Tabula Rasa world. Assuming the winner owns Tabula Rasa, they will also be escorted to the NPC bearing their name by none other than General British himself.

Even if you're not interested in these auctions, we urge you to check Child's Play out. In the interest of not being a huge hypocrite, this writer just plugged his credit card number in and bought a game for a sick kid. It's easy, fast, and it'll make you feel good about yourself!
