Structure of the Tower

''"Tower of God" redirects here. For the series as a whole, see Tower of God (series) ''

The Tower is the world and setting of Tower of God. There are currently 135 confirmed floors, and at the top, everything that could be wanted is up there. The 135th floor is yet to be conquered. The Tower is basically divided into 3 parts: Inner Tower, Outer Tower, and Middle Area. The Tower has an effect on someone's age. At any age, someone's appearence will freeze, and they can continue to age forever.

Inner Tower
Inner Tower is where the selected Regulars climb the Tower. The Ruler of each floor decides on a series of tests, specifics of which are decided by the Test Director and then administered by Test Administrators and other staff.

The Regulars must pass all of the tests to go to the next floor. Anyone who reaches the 134th floor becomes a Ranker. And as a Regular, they are entitled to rights.

Regulars must take the exams to reach the next floor until the 20th Floor, and they can go in and out of the Middle Area after the 20th floor. If they wish to, they can settle in the Middle Area.

Note: The Ruler has the right to decide the exam of his floor. But if the Guardian raises objections, he must follow the Guardian's wish.

Outer Tower
Outer Tower is the residental district and each floor of the Outer Tower is as large as the continent of America on Earth. Also, some or all of the Floors have the practise of issuing a Residential Card to the dwellers(Backryun's profile).

Once a person shows potential of climbing the Tower, he/she get chosen and becomes a Regular, earning the right of climbing the Inner Tower. The cultures of each floor are all different, and the climates and temperatures all vary. These conditions have been decided by the tendencies of the Guardians and the Rulers of each floor.

Each area of the Outer Tower and Middle Area is managed by the Ruler (the title is different each floor. They are called President, Chief, etc.) of the area. The Rulers are all High Rankers and are all followers of the family owning the floor..

Middle Area
The Middle Area is an area between the Inner and Outer sections. Both Regulars and Rankers can live there. However, Regulars only earn the right of living there by themselves or with their family members once they reach Floor 20. This means that people who are not Regulars can live there too.

It can be used to travel between the Inner and Outer Tower, and also can be used by Rankers to skip floors of the Inner Tower.

The area is smaller than the Other Tower, and it varies by the floor. There is some interchange with the Outer Tower. The standard of living is much better.

It is also very likely only the staff members of Floor 2 to Floor 19 live in the Middle Area or if not, in their own quarters within the Inner Tower.

The Top
The current known top of the Tower is the 134th floor. There are floors above that, but no one has gotten through the 135th floor or further yet, because of the hostile Guardians. It is said that the one who reaches the top will be able to see the stars.

It is strongly believed that the day Zahard is on the move again, is when The Tower will go up another floor.

Outside of The Tower
Little is known about what's outside of the tower. All irregulars of the past have been from the outside.

Some regulars are also chosen from the outside. This is supported by the fact Rachel has read about The Tower in books (likely written by failed regulars) and called Headon a "fae" who granted children's wishes.
