Earlier this year, Bethesda issued a challenge to any parents expecting a baby on 11/11/11—the launch date for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.  If any child born on that fated date is named Dovahkiin (dragonborn in the tongue of dragons), they would offer every past, present and future Bethesda/ZeniMax game to that family for life.  And, of course, someone did just that.  Dovahkiin Tom Kellermeyer was born one week ago and Bethesda had this to say on their blog about the birth, "Be it the real world or the game worlds we create, we wish young Dovahkiin the best in all his adventures. And if Alduin ever reaches this realm, we’ll be in touch."  We too would like to wish Tom (yes we bet he will go by Tom) a long happy life of video gaming!
