Flin

A Dunmer spirit from Solstheim (Dragonborn) that restores 20 Stamina but slows Stamina regeneration for two minutes.

Flin is a beverage added by the Dragonborn add-on and is found on the island of Solstheim, mainly around the Dunmer town of Raven Rock. Like most alcoholic drinks in Skyrim, it gives a quick burst of energy at the price of feeling sluggish afterwards.

Effects

  • Restores 20 Stamina
  • Stamina regeneration is reduced by 20% for 120 seconds

The instant Stamina is useful in a pinch, but the two-minute penalty means it is better drunk before a long walk than in the middle of a fight that relies on power attacks. At 0.5 weight, a bottle or two is easy to carry.

Where to find it

Good to know

Flin shares its bottle artwork with Emberbrand Wine. Another Dunmer drink commonly found on Solstheim is Sujamma.

Where to find it

  • Found around Raven Rock, especially The Retching Netch, and in Morvayn Manor.
  • Sold by Geldis Sadri and Garyn Ienth.
