Random Inventory

When choosing a God-eater's starting inventory, the following tables can be used to quickly select items which are suitable for a given milieu. If you are using a playset, it will specify which of the following milieux (if any) to use; otherwise, choose one appropriate to your session's general setting. If you are not sure which milieu to use, the following table can be used to select one at random:

TODO: Add more miliex
