Bounty Quests

Bounty Quests are a category of miscellaneous quests given to the Dragonborn in .
==General==
Bounty quests can be acquired by the Dragonborn in several different ways throughout the game. One of the most common ways to receive a bounty quest is for the Dragonborn to talk to an innkeeper or the Jarl's steward for work.
It is also possible to receive these quests from helping other faction characters. Most of the bounty quests are given with a Bounty note that tells the Dragonborn where to go and who to kill.
After the completion of each bounty, the Dragonborn will receive a reward. In order for the reward to be received, one will have to go to the Jarl's steward or the Jarl themselves and ask for it. Completing bounty quests is an excellent way to earn the Delver achievement/trophy faster, as they usually involve clearing out dungeons.
==List of bounty quests==
Bounty 	Task 	Location 	Reward
Kill the Bandit Leader 	Kill a bandit leader 	Bandit hideouts 	100

Kill the Forsworn Leader	Kill a Forsworn leader 	Forsworn encampments	100

==Trivia==
*Bounty quests involving Giants will not be available until the Dragonborn reaches Level 20, and bounty quests involving Dragons will not be available until the quest A Blade in the Dark is completed. Likewise, bounty quests involving Forsworn are only available in the Reach.
==Bugs==
*If the bounty requires the Dragonborn to kill a Dragon in a Dragon Lair which has already been cleared, another Dragon will still spawn, however, they will not release their soul upon death.
**Fix: Push the corpse away from the lair with a spell which causes objects in the world to fly around (such as Firebolt, Fireball or Reanimate Corpse). When the corpse of the Dragon is far enough away from the lair, the soul will then be received.
* Some bounties for locations in The Rift, such as Rift Watchtower and Nilheim, cannot be completed if the Bandit Leader has been killed during radiant quests (ex. Retrieve Kharjo's Moon Amulet) as they do not respawn.
