SantiagoOh, my name is Santiago. I could tell you some gossip about me, harhar. I also know many stories.
PlayerTime
SantiagoTime is passing slowly on Rookgaard, I can tell you!
PlayerRookgard
SantiagoWe are currently south of the village of Rookgaard, just follow the path to the east. Once you are there, you will meet many other citizens.
Playermain
SantiagoThe main continent is so much bigger than Rookgaard. You can travel there once you are level 8 and have chosen a vocation.
Playervocation
SantiagoThe Tibian vocations are knight, paladin, sorcerer and druid, each of them has its own specialities.

SantiagoKnights are strong melee fighters. They usually use weapons such as swords, clubs or axes.

Playerpaladin
SantiagoPaladins are distance fighters and holy magic users. They outrun their enemies and shoot them with arrows or bolts.
Playersorcerer
SantiagoSorcerers are elemental magic users, specialised in fire, energy and death magic.
Playercockroach
SantiagoEvery morning, I'm missing about a dozen fishes. Once, I've seen one of those beasts nibbling on a fish! They are SO disgusting!
Playertibia
SantiagoTibia is a huge world with many cities - most of them threatened by monsters. If you help us fighting them, you will earn experience and grow into a strong warrior.
Playercities
SantiagoThere are many cities on the main continent, much bigger than our little village here. You should visit all of them!
Playermonsters
SantiagoHere on Rookgaard, we are lucky that the monsters threatening our village are rather weak. I wouldn't want to have the dragons and demons of the main continent here!
Playerdragons
SantiagoYou'll never forget your first dragon. That is true even after all those years. Fierce beasts they are!
Playerdemons
SantiagoThere are numerous different demons all over Tibia. They mostly hide deep in dungeons, but sometimes they dare entering the human realm.
Playercitizens
SantiagoMost of the citizens are merchants. We have also two guards and a healer, and a teacher in our academy.
Playersantiago
SantiagoEveryone in Tibia has a job, and I'm a fisherman! Well - I used to be a famous pirate, to be honest, but all those adventures were too much for me.
Playergossip
SantiagoDid you hear that story about me catching this HUUUUGE fish?! It was so big that I couldn't pull it on board of my ship... and... and ...
Playerstories
SantiagoThere are so many things I could tell you, I don't even know where to start! My best stories are about Svargrond and the explorer society.
Playermerchants
SantiagoWe have a weapon smith called Obi, Dixi is selling armors and Al Dee is offering general tools. Also, you can buy potions from Lily. I think those are the most important people to trade with.
Playerguards
SantiagoThe bridge guards Dallheim and Zerbrus can tell you which monsters are suitable for your level and where to find them.
Playerhealer
SantiagoOur healer is called Cipfried. He guards the temple.
Playerteacher
SantiagoThe teacher of the academy is called Seymour. The academy is just north of the temple.
Playerfisherman
SantiagoTo be a fisherman, you only need a fishing rod and worms. You can become one too! Fishing rods can be bought in all cities, even in Rookgaard.
Playerpirate
SantiagoOh, that life is over. I've settled down. Fighting against those cockroaches is the only excitement I have nowadays, and that's already enough!
Playeradventures
SantiagoYou'll experience more than enough adventures soon enough, I'm sure! You look young and strong, Tibia awaits you!
Playersvargrond
SantiagoThere was a huge fuzz about it. Actually no one ever knew that it existed until a while ago when the sea serpents which had blocked the sea passage there suddenly disappeared ...
SantiagoNowadays there is a barbarian settlement, and I heard that you need to win a drinking contest to become an inhabitant! Now that's something! ...
SantiagoAlso, there are many different types of fish. They catch them through ice holes there.
Playerexplorer society
SantiagoThe explorer society has always work for brave adventurers. You can join them in Port Hope or Northport once you arrive on the main continent.
Playerport hope
SantiagoThat's a small settlement in the south of Tibia. The jungle of Tiquanda is all around it. There are many places to discover like Banuta, Trapwood or Chor.
Playernorthport
SantiagoThat's a very small village near one of the main cities, Carlin. I considered living there because it's almost as quiet as Rookgaard.
Playerbanuta
SantiagoThat is the name of the ape town. They say there is an ape who can talk! I don't believe that, harharhar!
Playerchor
SantiagoThis place was discovered some years ago. It's a lizard town and those snake-human mixed thingies are still there! I wonder why they haven't been discovered earlier.
Playertrapwood
SantiagoWild horses couldn't drag me there!! Evil little beasts called dworcs live there. They use a weird type of voodoo magic.
Playertrade
SantiagoOh sorry, I don't trade. But if you meet other citizens, it can't hurt to ask them for a trade! If they have offers or buy your stuff, they'll tell you.
Playerobi
SantiagoObi is a skilled smith. If you need weapons, you can buy them at his shop.
Playerdixi
SantiagoShe's Obi's granddaughter and deals with armors and shields, just upstairs from Obi's shop.
Playeral dee
SantiagoAl Dee sells tools such as torches, ropes and shovels. You will learn about them soon!
Playerlily
SantiagoLily's shop is just behind the bridge that leads to the village. She sells potions which will refill your health or cure poison.
Playerdallheim or zerbrus
SantiagoHe's a great warrior. He can also tell you much about monsters and dungeons on this island.
Playercipfried
SantiagoVisiting Cipfried is a good idea if you are badly injured or poisoned. Just ask him for a heal.

SantiagoEarning experience and gaining levels will make you stronger. It's all about power in Tibia!
Playerwarrior
SantiagoWell, everybody is a 'warrior' in general. You can choose between four vocations once you are level 8.
Playerquest
SantiagoI think apart from killing cockroaches there's no quest I could give you. There are many more quests on the main continent, just ask around!
Playeroracle
SantiagoOh, you're a bit young to hear about the oracle. Be patient, you'll learn everything in time.

SantiagoAfter you have killed a monster, you have 10 seconds in which the corpse is not moveable and no one else but you can loot it.

SantiagoThere are many ways to gather food. Many creatures drop food but you can also pick blueberries or bake your own bread. If you have a fishing rod and worms in your inventory, you can also try to catch a fish.
Playerhints
SantiagoBaking bread is rather complex. First of all you need a scythe to harvest wheat. Then you use the wheat with a millstone to get flour. ...
SantiagoThis can be be used on water to get dough, which can be used on an oven to bake bread. Use milk instead of water to get cake dough.
