That's her! Straight clue is "a warrior"; "paints and takes tea" means ART - T.
(I actually knew Tanis was a city, but had to look up why I knew it. Was dreading having to clue a random Egyptian city!)
ARONDIR - Take a bow, Halfelven, starless but wearing your ring.
METEOR - Sounds like more flesh from the sky.
ARTANIS - A warrior paints and takes tea before Indy's lost city.
4.
Z - Fourth in the race, we hear in Gondor their cars had bladed wheels.
5.
O - Slightly confused tint of wood? Why not briefly look behind the cellar door third.
NORI - Short or shorter - see, you know not, nor I.
Two to go! Both had to use a non-initial letter, and indicate this.
