Bethesda and Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic recently teamed up for a remarkable fundraising event, giving Elder Scrolls fans a chance to directly influence the development of TES VI.

An anonymous fan secured the top bid of $85,450, earning the right to have a character in TES VI modeled after themselves or based on their own design. The competition was fierce, with both individual players and large fan communities, such as UESP and The Imperial Library (who aimed to honor Lorrane Pairrel), participating in the bidding process. The Imperial Library's bid reportedly reached approximately $60,000.

Although Bethesda remains tight-lipped about the winning character's specific role, speculation among fans is rampant. Concerns have been raised regarding potential disruptions to established lore, while others view this as a fantastic opportunity to foster community involvement. Meanwhile, whispers from within continue to surface, suggesting TES VI will feature advanced shipbuilding, intense naval combat, and the majestic return of dragons.
