Help Child’s Play!

NCsoft auctions for the Child’s Play charity have reached more than $2500... help surpass that to help this wonderful charity!

This holiday season, give your loved one an original gift (their name as an NPC in Tabula Rasa) or a rare find (City of Villains Lord Recluse statue, signed posters and games, etc!). You can feel good about it because it benefits children! Do it for the kids.
