Scavenger Hunt

On speaking with an NPC they'll present a series of riddles about some items they're seeking you to find. Obtain the requested items and trade them to the NPC one at a time to receive the message "Ah! Yes this is one of the items I was looking for.." for each correct item. Note that you don't need to trade all items in a single visit and the items are not returned to the player.

Here are the riddles from each NPC grouped by location. When confirmed, a link to the item is posted. Any wiki page missing is followed with an external link to a retail wiki to help you learn more about the item.
