Bethesda has announced a The Elder Scrolls VI NPC auction to raise money for Make-a-Wish. Winning the auction will give one fan a chance to design their very own NPC — something else to look forward to aside from collecting The Elder Scrolls VI achievements for the upcoming Xbox RPG.

Fans looking forward to their next adventure in Tamriel could meet a character of their own making while on their travels. Bethesda is offering a unique experience for Make-a-Wish's silent auction at this year's Wish Ball, giving the winner the chance to "create a character to appear as an NPC in The Elder Scrolls VI." The auction is open to everyone in the US and can be found on the Make-a-Wish auction page if you'd like to take part — at the time of writing, the silent auction has already surpassed $11,000.

"Calling all gamers and fantasy fans! This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity allows you to immortalize yourself in one of the most highly anticipated video games of all time, The Elder Scrolls VI. The Elder Scrolls series, developed by Bethesda Game Studios, is renowned for its vast open worlds, deep lore, and immersive storytelling" Bethesda says. "With this exclusive experience, you'll work with the developers to create a custom character that will appear in the game, leaving your mark on the legendary franchise."

It's been almost a year since we last heard anything about The Elder Scrolls 6. Last March, Bethesda confirmed that developers were playing early builds of the game, reconfirming that the highly anticipated RPG is in development. At the time, Bethesda said, "Even now, returning to Tamriel and playing early builds has us filled with the same joy, excitement, and promise of adventure."

While we could still be waiting many more years before we see The Elder Scrolls VI leave our list of upcoming Game Pass games, this is an awesome opportunity for fans of the epic franchise.
