# Just the basics

Don't care about managing characters? Trait pools don't interest you? That's fine; you can still use **Inconnu** via the basic roll syntax below.

{% hint style="info" %}

/roll pool:<POOL> hunger:<HUNGER> difficulty:<DIFFICULTY>
```

{% endhint %}

But if you stop here, you're missing out on the dozens of features **Inconnu** offers. Read on for more info.
