Bethesda and Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic recently teamed up for a special fan initiative impacting the development of the upcoming Elder Scrolls VI RPG.

An anonymous fan won the chance to have a character in TES VI modeled after themselves or based on their design, with a winning bid of $85,450. The auction saw participation from individual players and large fan communities, including UESP and The Imperial Library, who attempted to honor community member Lorrane Pairrel.
Bethesda remains tight-lipped about the winning character's role, sparking much fan speculation. Concerns about potential lore disruptions are balanced by the enthusiasm of community involvement. Meanwhile, ongoing leaks suggest TES VI will feature advanced shipbuilding, naval combat, and the return of dragons.
