Alessandra's Dagger is a One-Handed weapon that appears in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Background

Alessandra's Dagger is owned by Alessandra of Riften. It belonged to Alessandra's father and it was given to her when she was training to become a priestess of Arkay. After completing the training, she received a new ceremonial dagger and now she wishes to return the old one to her father's corpse in the Hall of the Dead in Whiterun, as a way of making peace.

Acquisition

The dagger is a quest item given to the Dragonborn as part of a miscellaneous quest to deliver it to Andurs in Whiterun. The dagger is removed upon completion of the quest.

Usefulness

The dagger has the same base damage as a steel dagger, but loses much of its value at higher levels, especially when Dwarven or glass daggers become more readily available, although the low weight value may be beneficial for a minimal weight build.
