Bethesda Game Studios has announced a charity auction for a “priceless” and “truly unique” opportunity to create your own NPC (non-player character) for The Elder Scrolls VI.
«Calling all gamers and fantasy fans! This is a truly unique opportunity to immortalize yourself in one of the most anticipated video games of all time, The Elder Scrolls VI,” the auction description reads.
As part of this “exclusive experience,” the auction winner will be able to work with The Elder Scrolls VI development team to create a unique character to appear in the game to “make their mark on the iconic franchise.”

Immortalizing yourself in The Elder Scrolls VI is not a cheap pleasure. At the time of publication, the bid in the auction was $10,450, but bidding is still ongoing, so the amount may still increase.
Proceeds from the auction will go to the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity in the US state of Maryland (where Bethesda is located), which helps make wishes come true for children with serious illnesses.
The Elder Scrolls VI was announced at E3 2018 and has been in active development since the summer before last. According to Microsoft’s court documents, the game is not expected to be released until 2026 on PC and Xbox consoles.
