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.
