[[File:Tower_of_Life.png|thumb|The Tower of Life]]The '''Tower of Life''' is a tower south of [[Ardougne]] and is home to alchemy and hybridisation of various animals. There are four floors above ground and a basement dungeon that contains the [[Creature Creation]] activity. The area was released on [[19 February]] [[2007]].

The tower features prominently in the [[Tower of Life]] quest. In the quest, you build several parts of the tower for the alchemists, since the builders refused to. The alchemists, who turn out to be callous and cruel, later flee the area when you cure and free their hybrid victim, the [[Homunculus]].

After the quest, you gain access to the basement dungeon, where the Homunculus now resides and where you can play Creature Creation.

== Location ==
[[File:TowerOfLife location.png|center|frame|Location of the Tower of Life]]

The Tower of Life is south of [[East Ardougne]]. Besides walking, the tower can be reached by three teleport methods:
* [[Ardougne Teleport]] brings you to the East Ardougne marketplace, with the tower to the south.
* [[Fairy ring]] DJP brings you right next to the tower. Use of fairy rings requires partial completion of the quest, [[A Fairy Tale Part II]].
* Using the Ardougne cloak, you can teleport to the monastery which is a short walk from the tower.

The closest bank without using teleportation is the one south of the marketplace in East Ardougne. The map shows the shortest route between the bank and the tower. (Note that players do '''not''' have to go through the Ardougne Zoo using this route.) If players can use fairy rings, then the bank in [[Zanaris]] is closer. To return to the Tower of Life, the Ardougne cape teleport to the monastery and a direct east run is faster return.

== Ground floor ==
[[File:TowerOfLife GroundFlr.png|center|frame|Ground floor, Tower of Life]]

The ground floor contains many searchable crates. Most contain items of use in the Tower of Life quest. One contains [[Triangle sandwich]]es. After the quest, the crates can still be searched for components of the builder's costume.

== First floor ==
[[File:TowerOfLife 1stFlr.png|center|frame|First floor, Tower of Life]]

The first floor is used during the quest but has no use thereafter.

== Second floor ==
[[File:TowerOfLife 2ndFlr.png|center|frame|Second floor, Tower of Life]]

The second floor is used during the quest but has no use thereafter.

== Third floor ==
[[File:TowerOfLife 3rdFlr.png|center|frame|Third floor, Tower of Life]]

The third floor is used during the quest but has no use thereafter. The tower is open on its southern wall here, with a barricade blocking access to the outside.

== Basement dungeon ==
[[File:Creature Creation Dungeon Map.png|center|frame|Dungeon, Tower of Life]]

The dungeon can be entered after you complete the quest. Talk to the Homunculus in the northern part of the dungeon to learn how to play the Creature Creation activity. The dungeon contains six altars, or [[symbol of life|symbols of life]], which are used in the activity.

The northern part of the dungeon contains a "magic well". Water from this well presumably is magical and is what flows through the many pipes and altars in the tower.

The centre of the dungeon contains the equipment the alchemists presumably used to create the Homunculus. There are experiment cabinets, experiment tables, shackle tables, retorts, and cages here. All currently have no use.

The "Weird" room in the centre along the north wall of dungeon has no known function. It seems likely to have some connection to the magic well, for blue, water-coloured squares glow in the floor as you walk in the room. When you leave the room, your character says "That was weird".

See [[Creature Creation]] for more about the dungeon and the activity there.

== Monsters ==
The tower contains no monsters except those players make when playing [[Creature Creation]].

==Glitch==
Upon the release of [[Tower of Life]], it was possible to attack other players with spells in the basement of the [[Tower of Life]]. Few people died, and the glitch was promptly fixed. Jagex commented, saying that it was caused by the Tower of Life's basement being located directly below the [[Wilderness]].

== Quests ==
*[[Tower of Life]]

== Music ==
[[Music]] tracks unlocked:
*[[Work Work Work]]

==Trivia==
* On the first floor of the tower is a magic table. When examining this table it says: "Oh, oh, oh, It's Magic". A clear reference to the song "Magic" from Pilot.
