Now, let's again chant: hate numbers 1,2,3; love numbers like x,y,z.

In this context, what is a definition of a race? Which properties are
specific for the <you-name-it-not-just-race>? How do I generalize that?

And, getting to a big picture, how do I put down in concrete the MUD
world object model?

I believe, once this task is done, it would be much simpler to design it
further, as well as implement.
