Zone
ToME Version: | 1.4.4 |

Introduction
Zones are places you can go, containing NPCs (monsters and/or friendlies) and items. They are usually entered by traveling to a specific point on the wilderness map. They contain one or more levels (maps) connected to each other by stairs.
Items left on the ground of a level may vanish when you leave that level. There are currently three known exceptions: anything in a vault; the storage chamber of the Sher'Tul Fortress; and the special vault zone in the Embers of Rage campaign.
The denizens and objects in a zone scale to your level when you enter the zone, subject to a minimum (floor) and maximum (ceiling) defined for each zone.
A common trick (removed in 1.5.0) for some of the tougher zones wass to enter them early in order to set the level scaling to a low value, run away, and come back later when you're higher level (or otherwise stronger).
Some zones are towns, which may have buildings (stores) as well as (primarily) non-hostile NPCs. Inventory in a town's stores are updated using fixed character/power levels at specific points in the current campaign.
For the main campaign, these are: death of The Master, and completion of the Charred Scar.
If you are a newer player, you may wish to read this general guide to the zone order.
Continents
The world of Eyal has three (known) continents: Maj'Eyal (West), Var'Eyal (the Far East) and Tar'Eyal (South).
Players in the main campaign begin on the continent of Maj'Eyal. Var'Eyal (the Far East) becomes accessible from the end of Reknor.
Players in Embers of Rage start on an island off of the main continent of Var'Eyal. Access to the main continent of Var'Eyal becomes possible mid-way through the Embers of Rage campaign.
The continent of Tar'Eyal cannot be explored at the moment, but may become its own campaign at a later date.
This is an old, out of date map, but interesting still: http://te4.org/w/images/6/6b/Eyal2.png.
