Bethesda, in partnership with the Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic charity, has unveiled an exciting new initiative that allows fans of The Elder Scrolls series to play a direct role in shaping its highly anticipated upcoming RPG. This unique opportunity has ignited a wave of excitement among the gaming community, leading to a record-breaking auction where one fortunate fan secured their place within the world of TES VI. The auction concluded with a staggering bid of $85,450 from an anonymous enthusiast, who now has the privilege of having a character in the game either modeled after themselves or designed according to their vision. The auction saw participation from both individual gamers and large fan communities, including UESP and The Imperial Library, who sought to honor the role-playing forum contributor Lorrane Pairrel but were outbid at approximately $60,000.
