Bethesda Softworks is offering a unique opportunity: a chance to become immortalized in The Elder Scrolls VI. A high-stakes auction, benefiting Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic, allows one lucky bidder to collaborate with Bethesda's development team to design a non-player character (NPC) for the highly anticipated game.

This isn't just about superficial details; the winner will work hand-in-hand with Bethesda's creative team to develop a character with significant impact on the game's lore. From a humble scholar to a powerful warrior, the possibilities are vast. The winner might even see a digital representation of themselves integrated into Tamriel.

The current top bid sits at $11,050, but with the auction ongoing, this figure is expected to rise significantly. While Bethesda remains discreet about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date, the mystery only adds to the excitement surrounding this exclusive opportunity.

Should the winner choose to immortalize themselves, they'll join the ranks of Shirley Curry, the celebrated "Skyrim Grandma," whose appearance in the game has already been confirmed.

While an official launch date is yet to be announced, a 2026 release seems plausible. Regardless, one fortunate fan's contribution will leave a lasting mark on The Elder Scrolls VI's world.
