Atraena

Atraena is a High Elf noble who can be found living at the Tiber Septim Hotel in the Imperial City's Talos Plaza District with her boyfriend, Faelian, once the related quest has started.

Her entire life is spent in the hotel. Waking at 4am, Atraena heads into the hotel's study to eat breakfast for a rather indulgent five hours and then heads back to her room. Another six hours are spent here, simply pacing around the bed until 3pm and then she heads down to the hotel lobby. The hours between 3pm and 8pm are spent walking about the hotel lobby chatting to fellow guests and then it's time for bed again.

Atraena wears a set of upper-class clothing: a green brocade doublet with a green silk garment, a piece of leveled jewelry and a pair of blue suede shoes. She carries an iron dagger and a large sum of gold.

Quest-Related Dialogue

You'll first hear of Atraena from The Tiber Septim Hotel's owner, Augusta Calidia, when you ask her about Faelian:

"Faelian? Oh, I know him all right! A waste of life, that one. He lives here you know, with his sweetheart, Atraena. What that poor girl sees in him I'll never know. Atraena pays for their room, their food, everything. She's quite wealthy, I believe. Faelian used to have money... used to be quite a gentleman, too. But that was before he took a fancy to the... you know. The skooma. Now Faelian's hardly ever here. He's off using skooma, or wandering the city looking for some, I imagine. He comes back every night to be with Atraena, but only for a few hours."

When you get near her, it becomes apparent that she suffers quite a lot from Faelian's drug abuse:

"Oh, Faelian, dear Faelian... why must you ruin both our lives?"

When you approach her, she will greet you in three different ways, depending on her disposition:

"And what might you want... peasant?" (Disposition <30)

"Yes, good sir/my lady? How may I help you?" (Disposition inbetween 30 and 70)

"Ah, my dear friend. It is so good to see you." (Disposition >70)

When asked about Faelian with a disposition less than 30, she'll get mad and refuse to answer:

Faelian

"Oh, just get away from me! My relationship with Faelian is none of your business!"

She will admit her relationship with him, but will refuse to elaborate if her disposition is below 50:

Faelian

"Faelian? He... he's my sweet. My true love. But I don't know why I'm telling this to you. I mean, we hardly know each other and all... "

When she likes you enough (Disposition >70), she will tell you the full, tragic tale:

Faelian

"Please, I... I don't mean to get emotional but... I feel I can trust you. I just don't know what to do about Faelian! All he thinks about, all he cares about, is skooma! He was a fine young man once. But he's lost everything. His looks, his money... his self-respect. I followed him a few times, to see where he goes. He walks around the city looking for skooma, and then goes to Lorkmir's house for several hours. It's in the Elven Gardens District. I think the house is deserted. That's why he goes there. So he can escape from life and do his skooma! Thank you for listening. You're a good friend. I just hope my sweet Faelian can clean himself up, or that awful skooma will be the death of him!"

After the conversation, she will reply in a very distracted manner:

"Hmm? Oh, yes, goodbye..."

Unused Dialogue

Atraena was supposed to introduce herself with,

"My name is Atraena. How do you do?"

On the topic of the Imperial City she would've said,

Imperial City

"The Tiber Septim Hotel is clean, comfortable, and quite exclusive. I don't mind paying a little extra for a little privacy."

This dialogue is conditioned to only play if you speak to her before the quest, since that's impossible, it will never be heard.

Bugs

• Atraena is only supposed to spend five hours wandering around her room, but as there is no package defined between 2pm and 3pm, she keeps doing it for another hour.
  • The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 3.4.3, fixes this bug.
