The "Yes And" Charity Stream

A message from The Cancer Society of New Zealand to our "Yes and..." donors & audience:

Thank You To All Our Supporters

We are eternally grateful for the outpouring of donations we received during the weekend of the show. Truly though it is not our gratitude that counts the most. It is the gratitude of the cancer patients we provide care, support, and housing to that is the most meaningful. On their behalf, we would like to extend that gratitude for your generosity.

Ngā mihi nui,
The Cancer Society Team

Hey all! I'm Amie and I am excited to be your group 2 Druid. This is my 3rd year being involved with "Yes, And..." but my first time playing live! I'm still doing a lot behind the scenes, but also enjoying bringing my character Iridescent and her awesome wheelchair to life! I hope to see you all there as we raise money for an awesome cause, tell an amazing story, and have an incredible time doing so 💜

When I'm not helping out behind the scenes as the Head of Mod team, you can find me online at creating art! I find the internet an overwhelming place so I focus on creating a safe glittery bubble for us. I stream and create videos of me colouring in pictures, using it as a tool to promote mental wellness and positivity.

I’m Greg, DM for Group 7. I’m a Wellington based semi-professional DM who has been playing D&D since 1983. By day I work in advertising and even sacrifice my dignity to promote my business in in-flight magazines. Rest of the time I’m playing something from my enormous stack of RPGs. I’m also an improviser by trade, so I love the performance part of being a DM. And I love cool DnD projects (I recently Organised a bunch of games in a planetarium). That’s why “Yes And” is perfect for me - playing a great game, with great folx, for a great cause.

I'm Matt. I was voted 'most likely to overcook a stew' in high school. My experiences with D&D have been frighteningly intimate and it has entered parts of my life no person or concept has previously visited.

In the mornings I drink a large mug of boiled spirulina, in the afternoons I play 3 rounds of golf and eat an expired muesli bar, and in the evenings I have a chicken and styrofoam pie washed down with a tankard of unsweetened condensed milk. I am functionally unkillable and have never even had a common cold. My grocery bills are always $2 below market rate.

Group 1's main goal is to leave the audience vexed and hoping that donating to the Cancer Society will bring them some sense of clarity.

Hello fellow adventurers!

I'm Charlie aka and I've been playing all manner of role-playing games since I was 16 or 17. My first ever game was dungeons and dragons 3.5e where I played a pair of halfling twins that threw the other as their weapon.

Nowadays, you'll find me playing an Aasimar druid cleric named Vespera with her spirit moth Fio, and a Nosferatu Vampire Hacker named n00bY. I am a part of Russell Kirkby's games, that stream on Sundays and Mondays 7pm. https://www.twitch.tv/rolestream

Hello. I'm your friendly neighbor Waffles, resident Danger Manager (or DM for short)

I'm based in Ōtautahi Christchurch. In my expensive time you can find me making coffee, but in my free time you can find me rolling dice and taking names. I've been DMing for several years and have recently turned professional (though I'll run a game or two for free if you ask nicely). I love reading, watching films, and long walks on the beach. I look forward to retaining my title as lord of chaos. See y'all at the witching hour. (Flies off dramatically)

After supporting from the audience last year, I'm really excited to not only play D&D with some fantastic people but to do it for a brilliant cause. Outside of the stream I'm a Taranaki lad in the Capital, channeling the power of coffee to enable me to decipher the arcane secrets of spreadsheets.
