Overview
Tommaso is the largest town in the Tashkalp sub-region of the Crimson Desert region. It sits in the far northeastern part of the Pywel continent, surrounded by crimson sands and harsh terrain. The town is not part of any main quest objective, but it serves as a rest stop and supply point for travelers making their way through the desert.
Players will typically first encounter Tommaso during Chapter 9 of the main story, when the narrative brings them into the Crimson Desert region. However, it is possible to reach Tommaso earlier through free-roaming exploration if you are prepared for the dangerous journey across the desert.
Location
Tommaso is located far to the northeast of Hernand, just below where "Tashkalp" is written on the world map. The town sits roughly in the middle of the Crimson Desert and is surrounded by three fast travel points (Abyss Nexus nodes) that make returning to the area convenient once they are activated.
Bell Tower
Tommaso has a bell tower that is part of the Toll of Pywel quest series. Ringing the bell at the top of the tower clears the fog of war from the surrounding portion of the map, revealing nearby points of interest, resource nodes, and quest markers. The bell tower can be found in the northern part of the town.
Services and Facilities
As the primary settlement in Tashkalp, Tommaso offers basic services for adventurers crossing the desert. Vendors sell supplies and equipment suited for surviving the harsh conditions. Like other towns in the Crimson Desert region, Tommaso operates outside the jurisdiction of any major faction, reflecting the lawless nature of the area.
How to Reach Tommaso
The most direct route to Tommaso is to head northeast from Hernand through the Crimson Desert. The journey covers a significant distance across open desert terrain. Players should prepare with recovery items, as the extreme heat (temperatures can reach 50 degrees Celsius in-game) drains stamina more quickly than in temperate regions. Horses and mounts help reduce travel time considerably.
Once the main story reaches Chapter 9, the game naturally guides the player into the Crimson Desert region. From there, Tommaso can be reached as a side destination during free exploration.
