Items in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, objects that, once collected, are added to the inventory. Upon collection, items are sorted into specific categories, to help organize them and distinguish them from others. All items can be added to a list of "Favorites" that function like a hot-key system. Once an item has been made a "Favorite," it is listed in both the Favorites category and its original category.
