The Silver Hand is a faction in the popular video game series The Elder Scrolls, particularly featured in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This group is known for its strong opposition to werewolves and seeks to eradicate them. Members of the Silver Hand are often equipped with silver weapons, which are particularly effective against supernatural creatures. In the game, players encounter the Silver Hand during quests related to the Companions, a group of mercenaries in the city of Whiterun.
