GuardianCon, a two-day live event with a heavy streaming focus—for Destiny streamers to raise money for charity—is about to begin. Actually, the streaming part already has—and that will run through tomorrow. The folks running the pre-event marathon have already raised very close to a million bucks, all for St. Jude's. Starting on June 30th, the live programming begins (much of which will be streamed), featuring popular streamers like Professor Broman, LacedUpLauren, and many more, a podcast theater, meet-and-greets and other programming.

Last year, at the first event, folks raised over $560,000 for the hospital. Things are on track to double—or more than double—that amount.

Since I am very new to all things Destiny, I'm most interested in the Saturday lore panel, based almost entirely on that Grimoire reading Rob did a few weeks back.
