You may also want to familiarize yourself with some [commonly used terms in our Glossary](Glossary). After that, why not experiment with [creating some new items and build some new rooms](Building-Quickstart) out from Limbo.

While Evennia has no major game systems out of the box, we do supply a range of optional *contribs* that you can use or borrow from. They range from dice rolling and alternative color schemes to barter and combat systems.
