A Quiver is an item needed by marksdwarfs, hunters, or anyone else that intends to wield a crossbow or bow. The quiver will hold a number of bolts or arrows for the character to fire. A quiver is typically made of leather. Dwarves will train with bolts without a quiver (carried in their hand), and have been seen carrying steel bolts in hand. It is unknown if this hinders their firing in any way.

Dwarves cannot use bows, but can use crossbows. In adventure mode, where you can make a human or elf, both of those races can use bows. Either way, they need a quiver to hold their respective ammo.
