Tanasa Arano in Riverview, Cheydinhal

Tanasa Arano is a Dunmer commoner, employed as a charwoman at Riverview in Cheydinhal. Like her colleague and fellow Dunmer, the maid Tolisi Girith, Tanasa carries around a dark secret; She’s a Mythic Dawn sleeper agent and will attack you on sight after you have revealed your real identity during the Dagon Shrine quest.

Like the other employees working under the snobbish and underpaying owner of Riverview, Voranil, Tanasa works very hard for a living; she sleeps in the basement area every night until 6am. She then walks up onto the ground floor and starts her workday, which includes cleaning up after the many parties held in the house. She keeps working for a full eighteen hours, before finally eating a really late dinner at midnight. At 2am, she returns to the basement for only four hours of sleep. Even on Loredas, which is the big party night at Riverview, Tanasa will still have to wait for her dinner until all the guests have left at midnight. Sundas, however, is her day off and at 9am, she will exit Riverview and spend the day at Newlands Lodge together with Tolisi, just relaxing and conversing with the regulars there. As neither of them are in any hurry to get back to their jobs, they'll stay at the bar until 11pm, where they will head back to Riverview and their daily routine.

Her wardrobe reflects her stature: a pair of braided leather sandals, green felt linens, and a green wool shirt. She carries around the key to Riverview, a small sum of gold, and a copy of the destruction skill book Mythic Dawn Commentaries 2, a clue to her real identity.

Even though you never get invited to the parties, she will still introduce herself when you meet her for the first time; ”I’m the charwoman at Riverside, Tanasa Arano. I clean up after Voranil and his parties.” On the topic of Cheydinhal, she will give you a bit of background information; ”Lots of us Dark Elves came to Cyrodiil to get away from the Temple. We’re sick of living under the thumb of the priests, and scraping by on the dole.”
