Elder Scrolls VI: Pay-to-Be-NPC Option Confirmed

by Scarlett Mar 14,2025

Bethesda Softworks is offering a truly unique opportunity: a chance to become a permanent fixture in the world of The Elder Scrolls VI. Through a Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity auction, one lucky bidder will collaborate with Bethesda's developers to design a non-player character (NPC) for the highly anticipated game.

This isn't just about picking a name and outfit. The winner will work hand-in-hand with Bethesda's creative team, shaping the character's backstory, personality, and role within the game's rich lore. Imagine: a wandering scholar, a shrewd merchant, or perhaps a legendary warrior—the possibilities are vast. The winner might even see a digital version of themselves brought to life within Tamriel.

Currently, the highest bid sits at $11,050, but with the auction ongoing, that number is sure to rise. While Bethesda remains tight-lipped about The Elder Scrolls VI's release date, the anticipation is palpable. The mystery surrounding the release date only adds to the excitement of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

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

With no official launch date announced, a 2026 release for The Elder Scrolls VI seems likely. When it finally arrives, one fortunate fan will have their legacy forever woven into the fabric of Tamriel.
