Bethesda and Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic recently teamed up for a fantastic initiative: giving Elder Scrolls fans a chance to directly influence the creation of TES VI. This exciting opportunity led to a record-breaking auction, where a generous anonymous fan secured a spot in the game's world with an impressive bid of $85,450. The winner will have a character in TES VI either modeled after themselves or designed to their specifications. The auction saw participation from individual players and large fan communities alike, including UESP and The Imperial Library, who aimed to honor community member Lorrane Pairrel with a bid of approximately $60,000.

While Bethesda remains tight-lipped about the winning character's role, fan speculation is rampant. Some express concerns about potential lore disruptions, while others celebrate this unique community involvement. Meanwhile, whispers from inside sources continue to fuel excitement, hinting at advanced shipbuilding, epic naval battles, and the majestic return of dragons to the TES VI universe.
