Bethesda Softworks is offering a unique opportunity for a lucky fan: the chance to design a non-player character (NPC) for The Elder Scrolls VI. This exclusive collaboration is being auctioned off through the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity, with the current highest bid exceeding $11,000.
The winning bidder will work directly with Bethesda's development team, shaping every aspect of their NPC, from name and appearance to backstory and potential influence on the game's lore. The possibilities are vast, ranging from a humble scholar to a powerful warrior, and even include the option to incorporate a digital representation of themselves into the game.
While Bethesda remains secretive about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date, the successful bidder's creation will undoubtedly become a memorable part of the game's world. This echoes a similar auction held for Starfield, though the resulting NPC's identity remains largely undisclosed.
The winner will join the ranks of Shirley Curry, the famed "Skyrim Grandma," whose in-game appearance has already been confirmed. With a 2026 release date anticipated, the winning fan's contribution will leave a lasting mark on The Elder Scrolls VI.
