Pointless Treasures

Glockcoma725

Just wondering if you guys carry items on your person that could be considered pointless junk, but you like carrying them for RP sake or just because their cool? Like vender monster trophies, or small treasures that you've had laundered.

For example I've had a chattering skull trophy in my inventory for as long as I can remember. The hilarity of a disembodied skull magically chattering away sounded awesome to me. I could totally re-enact Shakespeare, or use it to prank group-mates, or even talk to it if I get lonely. I also have carried a laundered Legionnaire figurine since before hitting champion level. My characters Imperial and I like to think of it as a trinket from his homeland, a keepsake of the land long lost to war and daedric invasion. Or maybe a treasure hes kept since childhood.

Lastly last night I got my hands on a wraith shackle. How awesome, a metal shackle left behind by a tormented wraith, one little fragment of his existence left behind in the mortal world.

So i was curious if anyone else shared this incredibly weird hobby of mine. And on an unrelated note I just recently learned about the living dead achievement. Anyone know where I can pick up a hand of glory, tomb urn or twitching drauger hand? Thanks!

I have found my people

My Bosmer carried around a pouch of bronzed acorns for the longest time because, Wood Elf.

NordSwordnBoard

Rings of Mara.

Narvuntien

I have all the quest disguises, i really should delete them all for space. Who knows when i'll need a disguise.

I actually used the steel striker disguise whenever i needed to get to the malabar tor public dungeon.

rootimus

My mule hangs on to things like scrolls from events, the rare fish from Shadowfen from one of the events, as well as all the consumables - mudballs, cherry blossom twigs and the like.

LMAO...my bank is filled with every disguise given to me! Welcome comrade!

SlayerSyrena

Yes, I keep a variety of my character's collectibles, including my Bosmer's favorite, Stale Radishes.

Myyth

I never leave home without my [Skooma Pipe]

Nestor

I carry the Curious Khajiit Pipe, Pacrooties Moleasses, and a Switchblade or two.

I also have that purple fish on any of my characters that have caught it.

DigitalEulogy

My favorite thing that I have kept on every character is the kaliopi essence that surrounds you in a swarm. It was my favorite disguise pre-One T.

lardvader

Never leave home without a copy of [The Lusty Argonian Maid]..... for science reasons...

rotaugen454

I'm still carrying the last fish I needed to get the Master Angler achievement,even though that happened over a year ago.

Ilsabet

I have the last blue fish I caught from each alliance, because eff those things. I also held onto the purple fish from Wrothgar because it seems special and the last blue fish from Vvardenfell because it was just annoying enough to merit keeping. Somewhere I also have mini-stacks of the three blue fish from the New Life Festival.

I've laundered a Breton Love Charm because it made Ilsabet think of Darien, and a Linnea's Wolf's Blight because my Nord's name is Linnea. (Sadly when I found a Linnea's Luscious Foot Polish it was on my second account, so I need to go back and find one of those to keep on my main account.)

I've been keeping the crown store quest starters for the various events and stuff like the Pelinal's exp scroll and list of houses.

I have the first Undaunted Plunder I got from a vet trial and a Clockwork Oscillator from the first time I did Halls of Fabrication.

I have mini-stacks of laundered vampire dust and vampire teeth from pickpocketing and shanking vampires.

I have one of each disguise I've gotten from quests.

I may have hoarding issues.

Yuls

Purple fish, a Hand-Knitted Woolen Scarf, and a copy of Pocket Rules for Kick the Khajiit on my mage.
My orc is always carrying a Dremora Ragamuffin Doll. And around 20 Tharn Family Rings. She's weird. Orcs...

Take a look here, the guide is pretty old and outdated not including good dlc spots for farming but there are lot of suggestions, I made a post very recently about the collectibles I was missing to get some dyes, listing places where is convenient to farm and where I found the items. That's includes hand of glory and tomb urn.

No. For a while I thought those useless items had a purpose. then I found out they did not. So I sold them or destroyed them. the end.

Rawreak Rovyre

I carry a back scratcher. They're all the rage in Ral'khaw.

You'll be sitting pretty next year when they bring the event back and you're able to just turn that quest in every time it's issued.

Eddyble

I keep some of the older event quest starter items, ie. last years crow caller. kind of like mementos that ZOS didn't make mementos. also, some disguises and I still have the tutorial clothing & weapons somewhere. I don't know why, maybe nostalgia or probably a hoarding problem?

I have a whole mule character dedicated to just that sort of thing ...

And then go fishing for more to keep in the hoard.

Feric51

I just realized last night that I have a mule character that has partial stacks of all the Hollowjack motif pages from last year's event! I guess I had naive hopes they would inflate in value to new players and I could sell them off.

Looks like the guild bank will be getting a nice, big deposit!

Kaarick

I have a few characters that carry around a Fishle. I just like the description and think of it as a good luck charm. I also have my sealed urns an all of my characters.

Multiple rings of Mara? Just out of curiosity how many? lol

Pink_E_808

I keep a laundered creepy monkey puppet in honor of the guild I'm a member of. I do wish we could turn some of those kinds of items into furnishings that we can put in our homes so we don't have to take up inventory slots. I've gotten some neat purple treasures from pickpocketing, like a ruby from a throne.

Slyjinxy

I wouldn't call it treasure but I keep every Banana Surprise recipe that I find. That stupid recipe was the bane of my existence in the days before you could buy them from chefs. It took me weeks to find one. At the time I was too stupid to look in guild traders for it

Ilithyania

had some stolen cheese wheel i could not sell or launder.

humped that stuff for ages.

Acrolas

I'm carrying around my Preposterous Mackerel until I find one with a better trait.
