Bethesda Softworks is once again opening the gates of Tamriel, offering a unique opportunity not just for adventurers, but for one fortunate bidder to become a permanent fixture in The Elder Scrolls universe. Through the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity auction, a dedicated fan will have the chance to collaborate directly with Bethesda's developers to design an NPC for the highly anticipated The Elder Scrolls VI.
This isn't merely about selecting a name or a look. The winner will work hand-in-hand with Bethesda's creative team to craft a character that could wield significant influence within the game's lore. Whether envisioning a wandering scholar, a mysterious merchant, or a legendary warrior, the possibilities are vast. The winner might even choose to integrate a digital version of themselves into the expansive world of Tamriel.
Currently, the leading bid for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity stands at $11,050, though with the auction still in progress, that figure is expected to rise. Meanwhile, Bethesda has kept details about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date under wraps, leaving fans eagerly anticipating when they'll 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, affectionately known as the "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 won't hit the shelves until at least 2026. However, when it does, one lucky fan's legacy will be forever etched into its rich, immersive world.
