A new donation campaign for Ukraine was launched through the video-game “World of Warcraft” with Mila Kunis as the face of recognition. Kunis is a Hollywood actress of Jewish descent born in Ukraine. She become popular playing the role in the series “That 70s Show” with Ashton Kutcher. She also played in the film “Black Swan” and received world recognition for the role played together with Natalie Portman, as well as in the film “The Book of Eli” with Denzel Washington and the film based on the video-game “Max Payne”. Her whole life, Mila Kunis has been a passionate player of the “World of Warcraft”.
Watch the video to find out what exactly it is all about:
The action is called “Pet Pack for Ukraine”. Mila Kunis, whose real name is Milena Markovna (Mila) Kunis, not only knows but she also well plays the video-game “World of Warcraft”. She explains in an interview how she presented herself as an architect because she appeared in the game in different time zones but wished to remain anonymous thereby covering the “white lie” with the story that she travelled frequently.
Once they even recognized her voice, but then she was playing an alternate character (Alt), not the main character. She escaped the situation of revealing herself by not playing that character ever again.
Otherwise, this campaign of the actress through “World of Warcraft” was implemented by the company “Blizzard” and is based on 20-Euro donations. If you donate, you receive two mini pets in the game with the colours of the Ukrainian flag i.e., a small puppy called “Sunny” – golden retriever with really good animations, which you receive after several quests from any “Innkeeper” in the capital city in your fraction Ogrimmar or Stormwind. The second pet is a murloc called “Flurky” from the species of small, cute creatures living beside and in the water in the game.
Both pets have special effects that can be used in “Dragonflight” expansion and in “Lich King Classic WoW”.
The organization behind this initiative is called “BlueCheck Ukraine” and its co-founder is the actor Liev Schreiber. Most of the funds collected by this action will be used for humanitarian aid, medical assistance and support provided to orphan-children, as well as for securing basic supplies for people hit by the war in Ukraine.
