Aryarie in the Bravil Guild Hall

Aryarie, a High Elf nightblade, is an Evoker of the Mages Guild found in the Bravil Guild Hall. Her current line of magical research means she requires Imp Gall and she has hired the Fighters Guild to procure some.

She lives a pretty uneventful life, spending most of her time wandering around the guild hall aimlessly. After waking up at 8am she strolls around downstairs for three hours and will then head upstairs. For the next four hours she will be found in the northeastern room on the second floor. At 8pm, after another 5 hours spent pacing the lower floor, she will dine for two hours with her fellow guild mates. Once finished, she will immediately head off to bed. The only change to this schedule is during the related quest, when she will wander around the ground floor for most of the day, taking a two-hour break at 1pm to eat lunch.

She wears upper-class attire consisting of a red velvet blouse and garment with a pair of blue suede shoes. She carries around a sizable amount of gold and a shield ring, which is your reward for completing her quest. She doesn't carry any weapons, relying instead on a leveled set of nightblade spells (always strongest for Aryarie's skill level).

Dialogue

When you meet her for the first time, she will give you a brief introduction:

"Aryarie. Your friendly Guild Alchemist. Satisfaction guaranteed. No free samples."

Bravil

"Bravil? Good points? Cheap to live. Unpretentious. Free-wheeling. Bad points? Culturally, a hole. Count's a clown and his son's a skooma-sucker."

Mages Guild

"You want to join? Well, then either you'll need to find Kud-Ei here in town, or go seek out one of the other local guild hall leaders." (if not joined yet)

"I'm just here doing research. If you need spells, talk to Ita or Delphine. They'll be happy to help."

Once you've started the Bravil Recommendation quest, she will provide some information about Ardaline:

"The girl hasn't seemed herself lately. I have no idea what's wrong, but something's really bothering her."

Quest-Related Events

More Unfinished Business

During the quest Unfinished Business, Aryarie chose to hire the Fighters Guild to fetch her some Imp Gall for her studies. Modryn Oreyn sent the always unreliable Maglir to do the task, but he defaulted yet again. When you take over the contract, an impatient Aryarie will greet you in the Guild Hall:

"It's about time someone from the Fighters Guild showed up. I've got work for you to do. I need imp gall for my research."

Imp Gall

"I need imp gall for my studies. Ten portions of it, in fact. Since I hired the Fighters Guild, I expect you to get it done. And carefully, please. You might check Robbers [sic] Glen Cave for the imp gall. That place has been known to contain the imps."

Blackwood Company

"I just don't trust them. I know they're efficient -- a bit too efficient for my liking. Some endeavors demand time and care."

She will send you to the cave with the words:

"I'll be waiting right here."

If you approach and greet her before having recovered the imp gall, she will huff:

"No more delays, please."

"Well, have you found that imp gall for me yet? I've got some research I need to get to."

Imp Gall

"Doesn't look like you have it yet. Let me know when you do."

When you do provide the required ingredients, she will be overwhelmed and hand you an unexpected reward, a leveled shield ring:

Imp Gall

"Ah... you've got it. Looks fresh, too! I realize that you'll be paid by your superior, but take this as well. It might come in handy in your work."

When you exit the conversation, you will get one last piece of advice: "Next time, on time, please."

If you approach her before finishing the quest, she will mutter: "Good enough."

Notes

• The Shield Ring she's holding is unenchanted. When she gives it to you as a reward after the quest, it is a leveled ring with a constant Shield effect.

Bugs

• The Shield Ring stays in Aryarie's inventory after she supposedly hands it over, as the script that is supposed to remove the reward ring is incorrect.
  • The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 1.6.0, fixes this bug.
• Aryarie was supposed to choose between wandering on the second floor or near the alchemical between 11am and 3pm. However, the conditions attached to the percentage values, which would have been 33% and 66% respectively, can never be attained. Therefore, Aryarie will only take into consideration the second floor package as it is the highest up in the load order. Furthermore, as the radius is set to 0, she will simply stand still.
  • The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 3.3.4, fixes this bug.
• Aryarie carries the Shield Ring in her inventory even before the quest. Because it is a leveled item, the ring would return to her inventory when you leveled up.
  • The Unofficial Oblivion Patch, version 3.5.2, fixes this bug.
