Tanerieh

Tanerieh was the innkeeper of Leira's Trick in the Openpalm Bazar district of Samargol circa 1374 DR.

"Isn't the goddess Leira dead? Ay, that is what some say. But are not her guises illusions? And as illusions remain, does not she? Would it not suit her so to pretend she was gone? And what if Leira was never Leira but someone else? What if she was someone else, and is Leira now? Questions cover questions, gentle, we will never know the truth. We must be pleased with the illusion."

- Tanerieh

Description
In the late 14 century DR, Tanerieh was an older woman with a noticeably unfocused look on her face. Despite her almost trance-like state, she managed to keep an attentive eye on the entire inn.

Personality
Tanerieh was a devote worshiper of the Mistress of Illusions, Leira. Despite the goddess being believed dead by some, Tanerieh was convinced that the goddess of lies and illusions simply made it appear so to the inhabitants of Faerûn. She considered druids and their strange rituals quite peculiar.

History
In the, Tanerieh opened Leira's Trick's doors to a group of adventurers who survived the shipwreck of the Vigilat and became hirelings for the local merchant named Sa'Sani. Many many others in her trade, Tanerieh knew all the latest rumors, including recent dinosaur unrest on the edges of Samarlogh, whispers from those touched by magics that a calamity was looming over the the Coast of Swords, and a strange evil that arrived from another land that haunted the jungles.
