Clams are water living creatures that appear in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. They can be found near the edge or in the depth of the water. Differently from other animals, clams are treated as containers, which means that it is possible to store items inside them, no matter the size. More than that, clams are safe containers, which means that any items stored will remain, they will not disappear. There are 318 clams in Cyrodiil. The Knights of the Nine expansion adds 3, while The Vile Lair DLC adds 8.
