Random Starting Equipment
When starting with significantly more than 5000 copper, picking starting items can take too long. By randomizing players' starting equipment, the process can be significantly shortened, and players end up finding uses for items they would not normally consider purchasing.
This randomization process can also be used for DM-controlled forces.
The Process
1. Roll for a magic item.
2. Decide how many of this item you would like. If 1 or more, return to step 1. Otherwise, proceed to step 3.
3. Spend remaining copper on gems and mundane equipment.
Optionally, to enforce a specific gem culture, the player may declare in advance that they will ignore any roll that results in items that use certain specified color(s) of gems.

Roll
The following item has been randomly selected according to the above rules.
Jetpack Magic Device
| |
Value 3500 copper Weight 5 kilograms
| |
Chakra: Lung | |
Effects: When strapped properly to your back, you gain a 50 meter fly speed with 20 meter aerobatics distance. At the beginning of each of your turns while the Jetpack is powered, roll a d6: on a 1, you hurtle straight upwards 40 meters; colliding with a ceiling deals falling damage to you as though you had fallen the distance you traveled in this way. |
