# Teams

### What Are Teams?

Teams are player-made groups that allow your to:

* Play and progress together
* Share a team home
* Earn team levels
* Compete on leaderboards
* Unlock perks as your team grows

Teams are optional, but they make multiplayer progression more fun and collaborative.

***

### Creating a Team

Use the command:

```
/team
```

**Team Name Rules:**

* No offensive names
* Team name must be unique
* You become the Team Owner automatically.

***

### Team Roles

Each team has a simple role system:

#### Owner

* Full control of the team

#### Admin
