Bethesda Softworks is once again inviting fans into the heart of Tamriel, offering a unique opportunity through the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity auction. One fortunate bidder will not only explore the expansive universe of The Elder Scrolls but also leave a lasting mark by collaborating with Bethesda's developers to design an NPC for The Elder Scrolls VI.
This isn't merely about selecting a name or crafting an appearance; the winner will delve deep into the creative process alongside Bethesda’s team. They can shape a character that could influence the game’s rich lore. Imagine creating a wandering scholar, a mysterious merchant, or perhaps a legendary warrior. The possibilities are vast, and the winner even has the chance to integrate a digital version of themselves into Tamriel’s ever-evolving world.
Currently, the highest bid stands at an impressive $11,050, and with the auction still open, this figure is expected to rise. Meanwhile, Bethesda has kept details about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date under wraps, heightening anticipation among fans eager to encounter this exclusive new character.

A similar auction was previously held for Starfield, yet the identity of the custom-designed NPC remains a mystery to the wider public.
Should the auction’s winner choose to immortalize themselves in The Elder Scrolls VI, they will join the ranks of Shirley Curry, the cherished "Skyrim Grandma," whose likeness is already set to appear in the game.
With no official launch date announced, it's speculated that The Elder Scrolls VI won't hit the shelves before 2026. However, when it does, one lucky fan's legacy will be indelibly woven into the fabric of its world.
