Dravin's Bow is a quest item found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Its appearance is identical to a regular Hunting Bow.

Quests

Bow to the Master

Dravin Llanith at Merryfair Farm will tell the Dragonborn that thieves have stolen his bow and will ask that it be returned to him, for which Dravin will give a reward of a handful of gemstones.

Acquisition

It can be found in a chest in the The Ratway Vaults, located in the lowermost room of the vaults. The room is guarded by a Vagrant archer and a Lowlife. It is possible to obtain the bow prior to receiving the quest from Dravin.

• If Dravin is dead for any reason before assigning the quest, Dravin's Bow will still be considered a quest item, and unable to be removed from the inventory by normal means.
  • As a means to fix this bug, the console command player.removeitem 0006b9ad 1 can be used to remove it from the inventory.
  • Items can be stored in Dravin's body. This does not complete the quest.
  • Placing the bow into a container marked as owned by Dravin, such as the wardrobe in the farmhouse, may also work, but still does not complete the quest.
• Placing it on a weapon rack may remove the quest item from the inventory.
• If Dravin's Bow is obtained prior to being assigned the quest, it may be impossible to return to him, even if he explains the circumstances behind his stolen bow.
•  PC   If this occurs, the console command setstage FreeformMerryfairFarm 30 can be used to advance the quest to the correct stage, allowing for the completion of the quest.
• The bow can still be upgraded at a grindstone. This does not allow it to be removed from the inventory, however.
