Thamriel is a Wood Elf commoner who lives in the Imperial City's Talos Plaza District with her caretaker Elragail.
Thamriel sleeps in her house from 10pm until 6am and then spends four hours wandering around her ground floor. At 10am, she heads to The Foaming Flask for breakfast and spends two hours there before heading home again. At 2pm, she walks to the Market District and walks around the southern corner for three hours. On Morndas, Middas and Fredas she then heads over to Green Emperor Way and wanders there until 9pm before returning home; on other days she goes straight home from the Market District. Additionally, Sundas sees her spend 8am to noon praying in the Temple of the One. Thamriel was also intended to play a role in the unfinished Imperial Express quest; at midday on the 3rd of each month, as long as Maenlorn is still alive, she will head to the Black Horse Courier and stay there for a brief moment before she resumes her usual schedule.
On the 20th of each month, when the clock strikes midnight, Thamriel starts her long journey towards Skingrad. She crosses the Talos Bridge and heads south on the Red Ring Road, before finally hitting the Gold Road for the rest of the trip. She arrives in Skingrad the next morning and checks in at the Two Sisters Lodge just before noon. Here, she will socialize with the other regulars without ever eating nor sleeping. At midnight on the 22nd, she returns to the Imperial City and her usual routines.
She wears a middle-class outfit of burgundy linen pants and shirt with pigskin shoes. She also carries a few gold coins and her house key.
DialogueEdit
Thamriel appears to be a little unhinged. When first encountered, she will announce:
- "Thamriel of Tamriel. What are all those strange creatures in the garden? Where are all the white birds?"
RumorsEdit
Other residents of the Imperial City speculate on her strangeness, and will say:
- "Thamriel says she hears voices. All the men and women who lived and died here for thousands of years... maybe they left ghosts behind."
Her friend Elragail will tell you:
- "I look after Thamriel. He's [sic] a little strange. 'Touched by the Gods', they say."
Unused DialogueEdit
It appears that Thamriel was supposed to have a unique line about the Imperial City. This line was assigned to Elragail instead (who will never say this line as a different line will take prominence over it). Judging from the similarity to Thamriel's other dialogue line in contrast to Elragail's dialogue, it appears that it was meant for her:
- Imperial City
- "I beg your pardon. The city? Here's the city. All around us. A thousand stones, a thousand souls. I hear them all. Sometimes. But not right now. They're all quiet. Did you frighten them away?" (listen)
Version 3.0.0 of the Unofficial Oblivion Patch makes this line available to Thamriel again.
BugsEdit
- Thamriel is one of the characters affected by an audio glitch.
- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 1.0.0, fixes this bug.
- Thamriel was originally designed as a man. Elragail still refers to her as a "he", and the dialogue has a note in the Construction Set that says "changed "He's' to 'She's' -- our sex change error".
- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 1.4.0, fixes this bug.
