You can go with the standard or roll for gold (or take the average if the roll is lower than that) and buy gear that way. Up to you. If you buy gear the "old fashioned way" roll or select a trinket as well.

Character Backstory:
The Forest Deer tribe inhabited a region to the east of Blackmoor where they shared the land with their tribes’ namesake. Never numbering more than twenty or so adults is was a small tribe consisting of a dark skinned and dark eyed people who hunted and traded with neighbouring tribes.
Ngoya was out gathering herbs and fungi for the evening meal when in the distance she heard sounds of conflict coming from her village. Like her tribes totem, she swiftly and surely navigated the forest trails to speedily get back, but she was too late. Searching through the settlement she found the bodies of her clan and her family, all dead.
At the entrance to the village lay Manu and Oba, two of the tribes’ protectors, their bodies were bloodied and cleaved and she knew they had died hard. Her heart swelled with pride at the mound of dead elves before them and she knew that each warrior had taken at least four of the enemy with them on their last run. Everywhere the dead of Forest Deer lay their bodies broken, but many more of the pale elves lay around them. Pride for her peoples strength and rage for their senseless deaths warred in her.
Arming herself, Ngoya tracked the elves to their camp and over the next week made them pay a bloody price as she slew an elf each night. By the time the elves had returned to their land they were haggard from their nightly ordeals. Ngoya knew the elves would move against Blackmoor soon and though she had no love for the tribeless, she knew that there she would make sure the elves never forgot the Forest Deer. She would make sure they were remembered for all time!

Wow Kiraya, another awesome world! (Or another slice of time in the same awesome world) Doesn't sound like the family under the stairs is ending up here at least. Lucky them. I'm contemplating joining up. (since all me other PbP is going very slowly) Gotta see if a character concept jumps out at me.
