There are several quest items that are just permastuck to my inventory, including a ruby dragon claw, some book, and an elder scroll. I'm 99% sure I've completed these quests, but the list has grown from 1 to at least 3 now over the course of the game.

Is there a console command or something that will allow me to put these things down? Or a link to a tutorial of some kind? I just uh... I'm getting annoyed with it.

For weapons and shields, you can equip them and put them on a weapon or shield rack. For those and anything else, I'm pretty sure getting arrested will work. Just don't take everything out of the evidence chest if you want to keep the quest items out of your inventory.

Quest items are weightless no matter what the item says it weighs. You can prove this yourself by dropping every possible item and with the quest items left, you'll be carrying zero weight.

I know. I checked that the first time the ruby claw got stuck. It's not that it has any tangible effect on my game, other than being an annoying stack of items in my vertical, unsortable item stack list.

Take the Elder Scroll to the library in the Mage's Guild.

Ohthankyousomuch.

Yes, that worked. Not only did that get rid of it, but I got money Good thinking.
A thought occured to me though, why didn't my journal indicate anything of this sort? There easily could have been a note scribbled somewhere saying "maybe I should find somewhere to store this Scroll," instead of just ending the quest with it sill in my possession.

Honestly, I thought I had just messed up the quests somehow and still had it in my possession. I thought maybe it was supposed to leave my inventory when

Anyway, that's annoying. So if it's not a question of bugged quest items, it's a question of bugged quests. My journal showed that those quests were finished. There should at least be some indication in the journal that there is one more step to take.

If anyone else knows what to do with the following items, I would be grateful to have them out of my sight as well:
Ruby Dragon Claw
Attunement Sphere
King Olaf's Verse
Strange Amulet

All of those seem to be associated with quests that I've finished.
