Bethesda Softworks is once again inviting fans into the world of Tamriel, offering a unique opportunity for one affluent bidder to leave a lasting mark on The Elder Scrolls universe. Through the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity auction, a fortunate fan will have the chance to collaborate with Bethesda's developers to design an NPC for The Elder Scrolls VI.
This isn't just about selecting a name or a look. The winner will work hand-in-hand with Bethesda's creative team to develop a character that could significantly impact the game's lore. From a wandering scholar to a mysterious merchant or even a legendary warrior, the possibilities are vast. The winner might even choose to integrate a digital version of themselves into Tamriel's expansive world.
Currently, the highest bid stands at $11,050, but with the auction still in progress, this figure is expected to rise. Bethesda has remained secretive about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date, keeping fans eagerly waiting to see when they will encounter this exclusive new character.

Should the auction winner decide to immortalize themselves in The Elder Scrolls VI, they will join the ranks of Shirley Curry, the beloved "Skyrim Grandma," whose likeness has already been confirmed for inclusion in the game.
With no official launch date announced, it's speculated that The Elder Scrolls VI might not be released until 2026 or later. However, when it does arrive, one lucky fan's legacy will be forever etched into its world.
