Quest Items are an item related to a quest in some manner. Typically, they are located in your inventory under the Quest Item tab.
These Quest Items can be obtained in one of the following ways:
They cannot be exchanged, thrown away, or destroyed. They generally weigh 0 pods although some (such as scurvion poison) weigh more.
See Category:Quest Item for a list.
Quest items are items that have the main purpose of being used for completing a quest.
"Quest item" is also a specific property (or "flag" in programming terms) of an item in Fallout 3. An item with this flag cannot be dropped, sold or stored in containers. Contrary to ingame information these items do not actually weigh anything. Not all quest items in the general sense of the term have this flag.
The purpose of this setting is to prevent the player character from rendering quests incompletable by killing characters which are necessary for that quest or by selling or dropping items which are required for its completion.
Quest Items serve no purpose other than to help you complete a quest. You can usually only obtain one of them, and then you must give it to an NPC or otherwise give it away so that you can complete a Quest.
