Get ready for 12 hours of rolling dice, story adventures and monster slaying. This weekend, gamers from the Vanguard Dungeons and Dragons are hosting their second annual livestream fundraiser .
Last year's event raised nearly $18,000 for Extra Life , a charity that supports the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
It's fantasy. It's captivating storytelling told by Vanguard Dungeons and Dragons .
Founder Shawn Kitchin took CBS News Philadelphia inside the adventures of "The Shattered Obelisk."
"First-level basic adventure," Kitchin said.
Two years ago, Kitchin started an in-person gaming community in Newark, Delaware.
"How do we get people together to play a game I really love playing?" Kitchin recalled. "'Dungeons and Dragons' is essentially a narrative role-playing game."
