Towns

Your choice of hometown isn't permanent and can easily be changed whenever you want to. All you have to do is go to the town and find the Portal of Citizenship. If you enter it, the town you are in will become your new hometown.

In the past, it was necessary to know the hometown of any character you wanted to send a Letter or Parcel. This is not necessary anymore with the implementation of the global Inbox (with Updates/9.7).

Your hometown is listed on your on Tibia.com.

Rookgaard
The first town you come to with every new character. After you have left Rookgaard and went to mainland there is no turning back unless you die or suicide down to level 5, which will reset your character's level to level 1 (this is called rooking yourself). Here is a map of Rookgaard.

Ab'Dendriel
The land of elves and nature. This is where many elves live. Here is a map of Ab'Dendriel.

Carlin
Ruled by women and Queen Eloise. Not many monsters invade this town and they are far away from it. Here is a map of Carlin.

Kazordoon
The homeland of all dwarves that was created by the enormous giants and cyclopses millions of years ago. Here is a map of Kazordoon. You cannot reach this city straight from Island of Destiny.

Thais
The land of busy government where King Tibianus lives. They see themselves as the capital of all of Tibia. Here is a map of Thais. Thais and Carlin have been known to have a long-time rivalry on most game worlds.

Venore
A town built on a swamp. This town is based on economy and sells many items, making it an ideal choice of living in. Before a certain update this was the most dangerous town of all because of the monsters that live near it. Many monsters were lured near the path to Venore, for example Giant Spiders, Dragons and other evil creatures. Here is a map of Venore.
